Tradition and Modernization 傳統(tǒng)與現(xiàn)代

Many people po tradition and modernization as

diametrically opposite. For instance, as Beijing increasingly

becomes a modern international metropolis, its traditional

legacies, architecture and social mores among many other things,

are shrinking at an alarming speed. However, more often than

not, tradition and modernization are wholly compatible and may

even be mutually enriching. The modernization process only

rves to highlight the indispensable value of tradition.

Future-oriented as it is, modernization cannot be cut away

from the past. Man is an emotional animal who emotional

attachment to the past defines the meaning of his existence in

the prent and the future. Although many urban planners are

involved in a reckless drive for developing high-ri buildings to

make their cities look modern, true architects are committed to

prerving traditional architecture. This is becau demolishing

traditional architecture would render modern people rootless

and disoriented. Without the past rving as a framework of

reference, we would not know where we are heading for.

Being traditional does not mean being old-fashioned or

outmoded. Many traditional values are of permanent significance

and should be obrved in the modern and post-modern eras.

Chine traditional ethics like benevolence and moral integrity

should go beyond time and space to rve as universal values. As

we strive to modernize our world, we should and enrich our

traditions instead of discarding them altogether. Otherwi, we

are being irresponsible to ourlves or to our future generations.

It is true modernization is an irresistible global trend taking

place with increasing momentum. However, the best pattern of

modernization is the one taking full account of the historical past.

Modernization should not be equated with breaking up with the

past but rather an extension and incorporation of the past.

Accordingly, human civilization retains its continuity and human

existence is made meaningful becau of this continuity.

【參考譯文】

傳統(tǒng)與現(xiàn)代化

許多人將傳統(tǒng)與現(xiàn)代化絕然對立起來。例如，隨著北京日益變成一個現(xiàn)代化的國際大都市，其諸多傳統(tǒng)遺產(chǎn)，尤其是建筑與社會習俗，正以驚人的速度在消亡。然而，在很多情況下，傳統(tǒng)與現(xiàn)代完全可以兼容并蓄，甚至相得益彰?，F(xiàn)代化進程反而突顯了傳統(tǒng)的無可替代的價值。

雖然現(xiàn)代化面向的是未來，但它卻絕不能與過去割裂開來。人類是情感型的動物，其與往昔的淵源關(guān)系決定了其當下與未來的生存意義。雖然很多城市規(guī)劃者肆無忌憚地追逐者建造越來越多的高樓大廈，以使其設計的都市日顯現(xiàn)代氣息，但真正的建筑大師們卻致力于保護傳統(tǒng)建筑。這是因為摧毀傳統(tǒng)建筑會使現(xiàn)代人失去歸屬感，從而迷失方向。如果沒有過去充當我們的參照系，我們就會渾然不知我們將去向何方。

保持傳統(tǒng)并非意味著抱殘守缺或冥頑不化。許多傳統(tǒng)的價值觀具有永恒的意義，在現(xiàn)代與后現(xiàn)代都應加以恪守。諸如“仁慈”與“正直”這類傳統(tǒng)的中國倫理規(guī)范應當超越時空，構(gòu)成人類的普世價值。在追求使我們周圍的世界變得現(xiàn)代化的同時，我們需要做的，是對我們的傳統(tǒng)進行推陳出新，豐富其內(nèi)涵，而不是簡單地將其棄置不顧。否則，我們就會顯得極不負責任，無論是對于我們自己，還是對于我們的子孫后代。

誠然，現(xiàn)代化是一個無可抗拒的全球性趨勢，正在方興未艾地推進。然而，現(xiàn)代化的最佳模式應是那樣一種充分兼顧歷史的模式?，F(xiàn)

代化不應該被等同于與過去宣告決裂，而應是對過去的一種拓展與融合。唯有如此，人類才能維系其連貫性，人類的生存才會由于這一連貫性而富有意義。
