历史的飞跃:中法建交半世纪文化沉思

Changing History: Cultural Meditation on the Fifty Years of Sino-France Diplomatic Ties

1964年1月27日,当法国在和中国握手时,欧洲"开启了中国时代"。在中法建交五十年后,中国转变的速度令人着迷,也耐人寻味。法国和欧洲陷入局部性的危机,谨慎前行,而中国则将同美国一样成为世界上重要的一级。两国之间在思想方面有着明显的相似性,在思想深处都互有好感、相互尊重。中国同欧洲一样,需要依靠其自身的文化特性,证明政治和经济的自主性,并且通过对自身文化记忆的深入分析与"重估",来增强对自己文明遗产的信心。人们已经证实了第四次危机的来临,能拯救我们的,并不是一场新的世界大战,而是一种新的信仰。我们需再创造出一种面向文化对话的政治哲学,这就要求人们对这两种文化的潜能给予足够重视。

On January 27, 1964, when France and China shook hands with each other, Europe ＂opened the era of China＂. Fifty years later, the speed of changes in China has become fascinating as well as meaningful. France and Europe are mired into a local crisis and move forward slowly, while China will join the US and become another important center of power in the world. The two countries have similar thoughts, and deep in heart they are interested in and respect each other. China and Europe both need to rely on their own cultural characteristics to prove the political and economic autonomy, and enhance their confidence in their cultural heritage through in-depth analysis and ＂revaluation＂ of their own cultural memory. It has been confirmed that the fourth crisis is coming, what can save us is not a new world war, but a new belief. We need to create a political philosophy oriented to cultural dialogue, which requires people to pay due attention to the potential of these two cultures.
