中日爱国主义教育思想的比较思考

Comparison of Sino-Japan Patriotism Education

中日两国由于受社会本位、整体主义以及国家主义的东方伦理的影响,两国都具有爱国心教育的历史和传统。但是两国的爱国主义教育思想还是有其各自民族的特色和差异。例如,两国爱国主义教育的抽象性和具体性的不同;两国爱国主义教育的由远至近与由近至远的不同;更重要的是两国的爱国教育与民族危机的关系的差异,即日本的爱国主义教育的两面性,一方面既与振兴民族、富国强兵思想相关联,另一方面更显示出其强烈的军国主义的侵略性特征。中国的爱国主义教育则往往是与救亡图存、摆脱被侵略奴役的悲惨命运相关联。

As China and Japan are influenced by Eastern moral principles, they both have the tradition of patriotism education. However, there are some national differences. For example, in China the patriotism education is abstract and top-bottom while in Japan it is concrete and bottom-top. Moreover, the patriotism education of Japan not only concludes nation development, but also militaristic jingoism. On the other hand, in China it is related to breaking away from invasion and miserable fate.
