The Spiritual Cultural Aspect of National Identity

民族认同是民族文化尤其是精神文化被本民族全体成员体认、内化、弘扬、升华的过程。文化认同是民族认同的内在要求和前提条件,在民族认同中具有基础性作用。精神文化能准确、深刻地表达文化和民族的本质特征,在民族认同中占据着核心地位。从文化哲学的角度考察文化认同与民族认同的关系,剖析民族认同的文化实质,揭示民族心理、民族意识、民族精神等精神文化要素在民族认同过程中所起的重要作用,对于增进民族认同、弘扬民族精神、建设民族共有的精神家园具有重要的理论和现实指导意义。

National identity is a process of the realization, internalization, promotion and sublimation of national culture, especial national spiritual culture, by all the national members. Cultural identity, as the inner demand and prerequisite of national identity, plays a basic role in national identity while spiritual culture, as the embodiment of basic cultural and national natures, is the core heart of national identity. It is of great importance in theoretical research and practical guidance to explore relations between cultural identity and national identity, analyze cultural essence in national identity, and reveal roles spiritual cultural elements like national psychology, national awareness and national spirit play in national identity.
