On the Ideological Origin of Self-improvement Spirits of the Chinese Nation——View From Pre-Qin Confucianism

自信是自强的逻辑起点,自信心为一个民族的发展和完善提供了前提和空间,但要将愿景化为现实,还需要该民族有自强的能力,这样自强不息精神才能实际开展。这是构建自强不息精神所必须的逻辑上的二环。对于这两环,先秦儒家给出了自己的解释,并在两千多年的实践中,凭借着自身在中国思想文化领域中独领风骚的地位,对中国人的精神世界发挥着极其深远的影响,为培育中华民族自强不息精神提供了思想内核。

Self-confidence is the logical starting point of self-improvement and it provides the premise and space for the development and perfection of a nationality.In order to become reality,the nationality still needs the self-improvement ability.Thus,self-improvement spirits could be developed in practice.These are the two logical links of constructing self-improvement spirits.For these two links,Pre-Qin Confucianism has already given their own interpretation.During more than 2000 years of practice,Pre-Qin Confucianism has offered the ideological content to cultivate the self-improvement spirits of the Chinese nation by right of the status in Chinese cultural field and profound influence in Chinese spirit world.
