Globalization and a New Horizon of the Chinese Culture

Economic globalization provides a rare opportunity for the development of China and thoughts about a new stage of the Chinese culture. According to experience of the development of the Chinese economy and society, a basic guiding principle for promoting the Chinese culture is two-fold: idealism is the universal value as inspired by both Chinese and Western civilizations; the improvement of the spirit is the cheapest way of realizing social progress as proved by experience of mankind. A combination of the two can help transform the traditional Chinese thought of benevolence into philanthropism and the sustainable development in modern society and can reduce the damage brought by such transformation to the minimum.
