What is the dual role of traditional culture in social development?

Reference material: the dual role of traditional culture: ① traditional culture can play a positive role in the development of society and human beings if it can adapt to the changes in social life, and constantly meet the growing spiritual needs of people. On the other hand, if it remains unchanged, traditional culture can also play a negative role in hindering social progress and jeopardizing human development. The role of traditional culture for the country and the individual:①A nation or a country can only prosper if it can give full play to the positive role of traditional culture and overcome the negative role of traditional culture. ②Only by correctly treating the influence of traditional culture can each individual develop himself freely and comprehensively and create a new life better. So the attitude towards traditional culture: "take the essence, remove the dross", critical inheritance, ancient for modern use. For traditional culture in line with the requirements of social development, positive content, should continue to maintain and carry forward. For the traditional culture does not meet the requirements of social development, backward, corrupt things, we must "change the winds and customs", consciously to transform or eliminate.
