TOPIC: ISSUE147 - "Tradition and modernization are incompatible. One must choose between them."
WORDS: 445 TIME:50 DATE: 2006-7-18
What's the definite difference between tradition and modernization ? It's seemin:lolgly not easy to definite the difference between them, but one can clearly distinguish traditional and modernization objects .Although It's a common feeling that tradition and modernization are incompatible , quantities of reasons ,several of which have been illustrated below by me, shows that tradition and modernization are indeed compatible.
First of all , modernization , a broad-inclusive noun which are superficially in contrast to tradition since it seems to us it's to reform the traditional objects such as culture , ideology ,science , however , will unavoidable base on tradition which contains so glorious objects as the same mentioned above . Obviously , few modernization is simply used as an reforming method that only make sudden transition compared to the past , but rather as an advancing strategy to propel the way people are living . Based on the reason , rules of the guidance for modernization will inevitably be influenced by traditional way of ethos. To make more sense , one can consider the most renowned leader chairman Mao, also Chinese first chairman taking his place after establishment of new China as an example , he with other intimate comrades inaugurate a flourish situation for China , which with Maoism , the essential minds of chairman Mao and his fellows in the same hierarchy , are on a striking step to be industrially modernized . Therefore, tradition give birth of such things as inspiration , method and direction to modernization ,which matters much to it.
Furthermore , one as a social member which is shaped by tradition must learn more about it in order to increase cognizance to modernization of its aim and direction . Rather than choose to be an insolated traditional or modernized citizen , one can not only inherit some experience or knowledge from tradition but also choose a modern way of studying , working ,or living. That's to say , one can be both traditional and modernized. As can be seen from so many citizens from turors to professors, farmers to scientists ,employees to managers ,who are living in a modernized way but be influenced on their view on their lives by tradition ,populace and experts edified by traditional education are mostly traditional in their world view but may be modernized on their lifestyle in various degree.
To sum up , tradition as a historical heritage , contains so many engrossing things that it can render transition to modernization. Modernization as a way of reform , based on tradition, was inevitably influenced by modernization . In a certain balance of tradition and modernization , they can be easily conflated .
