TOPIC: ISSUE147 - "Tradition and modernization are incompatible. One must choose between them."


Though in the rapidly developing world something tradition is not outdated under some circumstances, it is not in-coexistent with modernization all the time since in some cases they are compatible to each other.

The modernization trend in current society actually abandons some traditional though, custom, manners and so for. Since tradition was established by predecessors thus it was suitable the situation in their time, which may be outdated in our days since many situations have changed. Take the change in politics as an example. Before the wide-spread of the idea of democracy, almost all the countries in the world were governed by autocratic government since people did not have the consciousness and the capability to rule countries by democratically. Nevertheless, nowadays majority of countries around the world are ruled by democratic government since the notion of democracy has deeply rooted in human’s minds. In this case since the situation has changed the traditional political pattern is not fit for the modern society and thus should give the place to the modern pattern. In this point, tradition and modernization is mutually exclusive since tradition is outdated and must be displaced.

Though tradition and modern are in-coexistent under some circumstances, there are also some realms where tradition and modernization could exist together though they are contradictory to some extent. Because tradition and modernization can represent different aspects, which express the different characters, of the same thing and besides can better describe the developing process of it. Such as in discipline of the city’s landscape planning. While the modern building stand for the energetic and prosperous development of a city, the tradition heritage in the appearance of a city may better represent the history and the unique character of a city. Without the tradition buildings all the cities throughout the world may of the same modern type especially during the trend of globalization. Thus in this case and cases like this tradition and modernization could be coexistent for the reason that they are not mutually exclusive though contradicted.

Moreover, it is presumptuous that tradition and modernization must be compatible while under some circumstances it is not the case. For the reason that in some field which is continuous the modernization is based on tradition such as in the field of science. Though there are new method, novel angles and advance equipments coming into the realms of scientific studies, the current advance are still based on the traditional and basic theory. For example, though the study of mechanics is highly developed than the 18 century it is still based on Newton’s law and other theories as well. That is to say, since the histories of some fields are a continuous progress the tradition and modernization in these fields would not be compatible but on the contrary inherited.

To summary, whether tradition and modernization is mutually exclusive is a case-by-case analyze. In the situation where the traditional is outdated and even false the modernization should of course take the place of tradition. While in other realms where they representative for the different parts of the same thing or where modernization is more based on tradition, there is no need to pick up from them since they could exist together or even that one relies on the other.
