儒家文化与屯垦戍边

Confucian Culture and Opening up Wasteland and Guarding the Frontier

屯垦戍边有着深厚的中华传统儒家文化积淀。传统儒家文化中的以农为本、安土重迁和修齐治平、扬名身后等观念与屯垦戍边思想一脉相承。自西汉以来,屯垦戍边思想与儒家文化紧密结合,成为激励中华民族仁人志士屯田戍边的重要推动力,也由此成为了稳定边疆、保家卫国的千古之策。

Opening up wasteland and guarding the frontier has a profound accretion of the Chinese traditional Confucian culture. The notions in Confucian culture, such as taking agriculture as the foundation, hating to leave native land,cultivating one＇s moral character,gaining a good reputation after death and so on, come down in one continuous line with the idea of opening up wasteland and guarding the frontier. From the Western Han Dynasty on, this idea has integrated with Confucian culture, which has become an important impetus to encourage people with lofty ideals to defend the frontier and reclaim the wasteland. It follows that opening up wasteland and guar- ding the frontier has also become a lasting strategy to stabilize and defend the frontier.
