东方历史文化传统与中国式现代化路径的选择

Oriental Historical and Cultural Traditions and the Choice of Chinese Path to Modernization

中国式现代化是基于中国国情的现代化。当代中国的基本国情一是超大规模,超大体量;二是多民族且各民族多各自聚居,拥有自己的历史、语言、文化;三是一个长历史的国家,拥有五千年绵延不绝的历史文化。历史和现实都证明以强有力的中央政府维护国家的统一和社会的稳定是实现中国式现代化的前提。因此,中国式现代化必须在中国共产党的领导下,将马克思主义中国化,将中国优秀传统文化现代化,实现马克思主义与中国优秀传统文化的有机结合,形成全新的中国式现代化理论体系。中国优秀传统文化以儒家思想为主体,儒家大一统的社会秩序观,由小康而大同的理想追求和修齐治平、天下为公的社会责任意识等,以及儒家举贤任能的政治治理实践、道义经济理论、天下主义的社会建设抱负,可视为儒家的社会发展理论,这不仅与马克思主义的社会主义发展理论相契合,也与当代中国现代化社会治理实践相适应。因此,思想理论界、学术界应共同努力,建构完善的中国式现代化理论体系,以期中国式现代化事业行稳致远。

The Chinese path to modernization is chosen based on China's national conditions.China today has a large population and it is difficult to govern.It has multi-ethnic groups living in their own communities and having their own history,language and culture.China is a country with a long history of 5,000 years.History and reality have proved that maintaining national unity and social stability with a strong central government is an inevitable prerequisite for realizing social modernization.Therefore,to realize modernization in China,Marxism must be adapted to Chinese conditions and China's excellent traditional culture must be modernized under the leadership of the Communist Party of China to organically combine Marxism and China’s excellent traditional culture,thus forming a brand-new theoretical system for Chinese modernization.China's excellent traditional culture is mainly represented by Confucianism.The Confucian concept of unified social order,its ideal pursuit of a well-off and harmonious society,and its sense of social responsibility for self-cultivation,family management and national governance,as well as the Confucian governance practice based on meritocracy and fairness,moral and economic theory and ambition to build the society for all can be regarded as the Confucian social governance theory,which is not only in line with the Marxist socialist governance theory,but also in line with the modern social governance practice in China.Therefore,the ideological theory circles and academia as a whole should work together to construct a well-functioning theoretical system for Chinese modernization,in order to achieve a stable and far-reaching modernization in China.
