中国传统孝文化与构建和谐社会

Traditional Chinese Filial Piety Culture and the Building of Harmonious Society

中国传统文化中最独具特色、最能体现中西文化的差别的就是"孝"。中国传统孝文化本身有其产生、发展的过程,它对维护古代中国家庭和谐、国家和谐和社会的普遍和谐起到了重要作用,同时,也不可避免地具有历史局限性。我们应批判地继承传统孝文化的精华,消除其消极影响,使其在构建当代中国和谐社会过程中,仍然发挥出积极作用。

Filial piety is one of the most characteristic in traditional Chinese culture,and one that distinguish Chinese culture from the western culture.Traditional Chinese filial piety culture experienced its own process of origination and development,and had played important role in conserving familial harmony,national harmony,and universal social harmony in ancient China.Yet it is unavoidably faulted with historical limitations,too.We should try to absorb the essence of the filial piety culture with a critical mind and get rid of its negative effect,and make it contribute in our contemporary building of harmonious society.
