论中国未来的“中和礼乐”社会

中国传统文化中的“中和礼乐”四字精神,最具中华民族的特色。“中”要求我们正确认识事物客观规律,作出恰如其分的判断;“和”要求我们兼容并储多种观点,相互吸取各自长处;“礼”要求我们尊重每个人的基本权利和个性自由,并在社会上讲究道德精神文明;“乐”要求我们在家庭、邻里、同事、同道和社会之间建立和谐的人际生活。新世纪中国的未来社会,就是耸立在现代化基础之上的中和礼乐社会。

View on Chinese future society of insisting ontruth, acceptingmore good ideas, being moral andbeing friendly to each other

The four - character spirit of " Zhong, He, Li, Le" in Chinese traditional culture is the most characteristic of Chinese nation. "Zhong"means that we should recogize the objective rule of things and make right judgements. Acording to He", We should accept more opinions properly and learn from each other. Li" asks us to respect individual fundamental rights and personality. Mean while we should abide by moral rules in society. Le" ells us that we ought to make harmonius relationships between families, neighbours, collegues, confreres and society. The Chinese future society in the new century will be a Zhong, He, Li, Le" society which is based on modernization.
