自尊,自信,自强,自豪:理性爱国的四个境界

Self-esteem,Self-confidence,Self-improvement,Self-pride:Four States of Rational Patriotism

爱国主义就是千百年来巩固起来的对自己祖国的一种最深厚的感情。现实中爱国主义存在两种不同形式:一种是狭隘的、本能的、非理性的甚至是封建宗法的爱国主义;另一种是普遍的、反思的、理性的和现代化的爱国主义。解决这两种爱国主义的观念和形式的冲突,关键在于将非理性的爱国主义真正上升至理性的爱国主义,从而切实做到理性爱国。自尊,自信,自强,自豪可视为当今时代实现理性爱国的四个境界。

Patriotism is one of the most profound feelings for one＇s homeland reinfoced for thousands of years.In reality there are two different forms of patriotism.One is narrow,instinctive, irrational and even feudal patriarchal patriotism,the other is universal,reflective, rational and modern patriotism.To resolve the conflict of the two kinds of patriotism in concept and form,the key is to lift the irrational patriotism to real patriotism so as to effectively achieve rational patriotism.Self-esteem,self-confidence,self-improvement,and self-pride in the present era can be seen as rational patriotism to achieve the four states of patriotism.
