Rooted in different directions of civilization. "Civilization" refers to the sum of material, institutional and spiritual achievements formed by human beings in the process of dealing with nature. Civilization exchange refers to the process of actively promoting and sharing one's own civilization with other nations. The civilization of any nation is not perfect. Due to different challenges from the external environment, different cultural endowments and different thinking interests, different nationalities present different civilization landscapes. To reveal this process, the German historian Jaspers' theory of "axial period" is more convincing. He believed that 800 BC to 200 BC, especially 600 BC to 300 BC, was the "axis era" of human civilization. These few hundred years are a major breakthrough in the spirit of human civilization. All originally isolated civilizations have their own great spiritual mentors, such as Socrates, Plato and Aristotle in ancient Greece, and a hundred schools of thought contended in China before the Qin Dynasty. Their ideological principles have shaped different cultural traditions and determined their different cultural forms in these areas. Jaspers actually reveals the "fission" process of human spirit, that is, how different nationalities "share" their own cultural spirit and form their own civilization trend.
Before fission, the human spirit was complete, but it was ignorant. After fission, it develops along its own path, but it is inevitable to be paranoid and fall into the so-called "relative reality" dilemma. Therefore, the interaction, mutual learning and even integration between civilizations have become particularly important. In the history of civilization communication, the biggest enemy is "cultural egoism". For example,/kloc-In the late 9th century, influenced by Darwin's theory of biological evolution, some western scholars thought that culture also followed the evolutionary standard of "natural selection, survival of the fittest", and different cultures could be compared, including advanced and backward, advanced and low. As soon as this idea was put forward, it was strongly opposed by "cultural pluralism". They believed that every culture had its own reasons for existence and had made or was making its own contribution to the development of human history.
Based on the differences of realistic dreams, the direct cause of civilized communication lies in the differences and even exclusiveness of dreams of different nationalities in reality. The deep purpose of civilized communication lies in the understanding and reconciliation of reality through historical communication. Human history and human society can be said to be a vivid picture of the coexistence of various forms of civilization in space and one after another in time. The development and continuation of these civilizations are mainly supported by their inherent cultural spirit. Today, the communication between China and the West is not only a dream about the future, but also an exchange of history and culture.
Focus on the future response of * * *. Destruction of ecosystem, abnormal climate and environment, etc. These problems faced by mankind need to break through the restrictions of regions and nationalities, carry out in-depth cooperation, and inspire and learn from each other on the level of civilization. "People who see themselves are unfortunate, but people who see themselves are unknown." In addition to their innate arrogance and prejudice against their own civilization, people are born with "path dependence" on the existing civilization, which is doomed that such problems cannot be solved within the same civilization. Therefore, the so-called "those who know others are wise, and those who know themselves are clear" can only form a new thinking to cope with the future by knowing ourselves and knowing each other in civilized exchanges.
The richness and openness of human life activities determine the infinite possibility of civilized communication. Two heterogeneous civilizations can live in harmony and form a new way of thinking or life on this basis. If a nation lacks the motivation of compatible innovation, then it can only be "a road to black." "Everything coexists without harming each other, and Tao runs parallel without touching each other." Only in real dialogue and communication can we jointly cope with the future of * * *!
