陶行知的民族观与民族教育思想

Mr.Tao Xingzhi's National Outlook and Ideas of National Education

教育家陶行知受到"五族共和"论及民国时期边疆民族问题的影响,逐渐形成了主张维护国家统一、推进国内民族团结、尊重民族群众的民族地位及反对大民族主义的民族观。在此基础上,他提出了一系列民族教育思想。这些思想侧重在发展民族教育的作用、方针和教学语言等方面,其旨趣在提升各族民众的国家认同感、给予少数民族文化一定的发展空间。

Mr. Tao Xingzhi, an educationist, gradually formed his national outlook of advocating national reunification, promoting national unity, respecting status of ethnic minorities and opposing ethnic chauvinism under the influence of ＂Republic of Five Nationalities＂ as well as problems in ethnic border areas in the period of the Republic of China. He developed a series of ideas of national education about the role, principle and language teaching in ethnic education with the purpose of raising national identity of all ethnic groups and provided development space for ethnic culture. His ideas are of progressive significance in the history of national education in China and are also of referential value for the present development of national education in the transition from a traditional country to a modern national state.
