中华文明包容性的历史取向

The Historical Orientation of Inclusiveness in Chinese Civilization

建立在中华文明连续性基础上的包容性,具有聚多元、凝共识、固根本、助绵延之作用。“尚和合”是中华文明包容性的核心内涵;“和而不同”的共生秩序则为中华文明包容性之历史取向。中华文明的包容性来自于中华各民族的实践,也来自于对中华各民族实践成果的总结。中华文明的包容性受制于文明的主体,但又促使文明的主体与时俱进,并由此创造出适应时代发展的更高的文明。

Inclusiveness based on the continuity of Chinese civilization has the function of gathering diversity,building consensus,consolidating foundation and helping the continuity.“Advocacy of harmony” is the basic connotation of inclusiveness in Chinese civilization and “harmony in diversity” is the historical orientation of inclusiveness in Chinese civilization.The inclusiveness of Chinese civilization comes from the practice of all ethnic groups in China,and also from the summary of the practice achievements of all ethnic groups in China.The inclusiveness of Chinese civilization is constrained by the main body of civilization,but it also promotes the main body of civilization to keep pace with the times,thus creating a higher civilization that adapts to the development of the times.
