中国现代化实践的文化逻辑与本质——兼论习近平关于社会主义现代化的重要精神

The Cultural Logic and Essence of China’s Modernization Practice: Also on Xi Jinping’s Important Spirit of Socialist Modernization

中国的现代化实践,不仅走出了一条不同于资本主义现代化的新路,更是对社会主义与现代化关系的超越,这尤其体现在新中国70年社会主义现代化实践的文化层面。从概念生成史上看,文化概念具有民族性、阶级性和区域性的内在张力,且与现代化进程共生。当前,西方现代化道路在某种程度上陷入了文化困境,而中国的现代化实践则在坚持从本国实际出发、以人民利益为中心、独立自主的基础上,形成了世界性、人民性、普遍性的文化逻辑,构成了中国社会主义现代化的文化本质,一定程度上破解了西方现代化道路的文化困境,这在人类社会发展层面具有重要意义。

China's modernization practice has not only embarked on a new road different from the modernization of capitalism, but also transcends the relationship between socialism and modernization;this is especially reflected on the cultural dimension of the 70 years practice of socialist modernization in New China. From the perspective of the history of concept generation, the concept of culture has the inherent tension of nationality, class and regionality, and it is symbiotic with the modernization process. At present, the western modernization road has fallen into a cultural predicament to a certain extent, while China, s modernization practice has formed a culture logic of cosmopolitan, affinity to the people, and universality on the basis of adhering to the reality of the country and focusing on the interests of the people and independence. The cultural logic constitutes the cultural essence of China's socialist modernization, to a certain extent;it breaks the cultural predicament of the Western modernization road, which is of great significance in the development of human society.
