“全球化”与当代中国宗教

"Globalization"and Religions in Contemporary China

"全球化"时代的到来使国际社会进入"开放性"、"外延式"发展阶段,政经交往、文化交流、思想互渗、社会共融乃前所未有。这种"全球化"氛围已直接影响到当代中国宗教的存在与走向,是中国"软实力"构建、文化发展工程中一个不可忽视的重要问题。在中国的五大宗教中,除了道教这一中华本土宗教之外,其他宗教都是具有国际性流动的"世界宗教",与外来文化复杂交织、密切关联,呈现出你中有我、我中有你之互渗局面,成为社会政治和文化交流以及不同思想和意识碰撞、融合的一个特殊领域。

With the arrival of the era of'globalization'the international society entered the stage of'open'and'extensive'development and there have appeared unprecedented political and economic contacts,cultural exchanges,ideological mutual infiltration and social fusion all over the world.The atmosphere of'globalization'has produced a direct impact on the religions and their developmental trend in contemporary China and become an important issue not to be overlooked in the project of constructing China's'soft power'and developing the Chinese culture.Of the five major religions in China, only Taoism is an indigenous religion,the remaining four religions are all'world religions'with international mobility and are intertwined,closely connected and mutually infiltrated with foreign cultures, constituting a special field where social,political and cultural communications are carried out and different ideologies and thoughts collide and brought in line with one another.
