The order of etiquette, the universe and the harmony of heaven and earth: the modern social governance implications of the Confucian etiquette system
In the continuous inheritance of Chinese civilization, etiquette and music are not only institutional norms, but also the root of the people's subtle formation of good customs and rules. Confucianism, which originated in the land of Qilu, transformed etiquette into the principles by which Chinese people behave. Just like the filial piety evaluation activity in Yuantuan Village, Bei, Qufu, which has lasted for more than 20 years, it is the legacy of the ancient "rural election" and a vibrant contemporary expression. This transformation of the spirit of respect and concession in the " sacrificial ceremony " and the transformation of the spirit of respect and concession in the " guest ceremony " into the " harmony is the most precious " mediation mechanism of rural governance has made the abstract patriarchal ethics concretely present into a realistic picture of neighbors giving in to each other, and also made the abstract patriarchal ethics concretely presented into a realistic picture of ordering elders and younger children. The flourishing "harmony is precious" social governance service centers in various parts of Shandong have their origins in the Confucian ideal of "no litigation" and the deep integration of the tradition of clan mutual assistance. It demonstrates the contemporary value of ritual civilization in mediating social relations and building an environment of honest folk customs.
The inheritance of poetic education and the continuation of cultural context: the classic education system at the core of folk customs
The continuation of the Chinese cultural heritage relies on the education system passed down from generation to generation. The ancients talked about the situation of "poems and books being passed down to the family", and people today advocate the situation of "culture starting from childhood". Their principles are the same. Shandong has included "Chinese Excellent Traditional Culture" in the national education system. This is not only an act of imparting knowledge, but also the echo of the tradition of Confucian classics in the contemporary era. This is not simply going back and retro, but a conscious and active act of protecting the orthodox part of the extremely important cultural tradition, so that the core of folk culture hidden in poems, songs, and elementary school readings, such as diligence, kindness, and patriotism, can take root and begin to grow in the newly born and growing life groups, thereby ensuring that Chinese orthodoxy can continue like a torch relay in the younger generation, passed down from generation to generation.
Benevolence Thought and Benefiting the World and the People: Contemporary Administrative Transformation Based on Philosophy
The philosophy upheld by Confucianism is based on the concept called "benevolence" as its core point, advocating a so-called view of "benevolent people love others", relying on this to extend one's own situation to others, and ultimately achieve the ideal social state of "cultivating oneself and calming others" and "giving to others". And when this content, which is regarded as the foundation of thought, is projected into the contemporary era, what finally emerges is the governing concept of "people-oriented". The first is Jinan’s implementation of “simplified approval”, and the second is Shandong’s successive plans to optimize the business environment. Then, the logic behind it is exactly the Confucian concept of “saving penalties” and the Confucian idea of “thin taxes and low taxes”. The people-oriented thinking represented by these two is reflected in the modern governance system. The government carries out self-revolution and reduces interference in the market through "decentralization, regulation and service". This is precisely practicing the wisdom of "governing by doing nothing" and also practicing the wisdom of "benefiting the people for their benefit". This approach of " sage within and king outside " has been implemented into the practice of creating a market-oriented, legalized, and international business environment. As a result, the ideal of great harmony of " those who are near are happy and those who are far away " have gained a new interpretation in the reality of entrepreneurship and wealth creation that attracts global companies.
Golden mean and digital empowerment: the fusion and symbiosis of classic art and technology
For a long time, Chinese civilization has advocated "moderate" and "harmony without difference", focusing on exploring the path of development in a state of balance. When faced with the impact of the wave of digital civilization, Shandong did not stand still and stagnate. Instead, it relied on its inclusive and broad mind to actively promote the integration of traditional culture and cutting-edge technology to achieve new development breakthroughs. Just like in the Confucius Museum, classic art forms such as the "Ming Dynasty Painted Painting of Confucius' Relics" seem to have come to life with the help of digital methods, and they have transformed into a place for Internet celebrities to check in. This situation is precisely the use of modern technology to revitalize the vitality of original historical documents and cultural relics. Traditional enterprises such as Qingdao Ruihua achieve digital transformation through the industrial Internet platform. Their spiritual inner essence is in line with the Confucian innovation concept of "new every day, new every day, and new every day". This not only preserves the content accumulated by history and culture, but also seizes leading opportunities in the field of digital economy, resulting in a state of blending and symbiosis between humanistic spirit and scientific and technological rationality.
Universal Harmony and Openness and Inclusion: The International Communication and Contemporary Mission of Chinese Context
What Confucianism pursues is "university under heaven" and what it advocates is "honesty and harmony." From the ancient Silk Road to today's "One Belt, One Road", this kind of "inclusiveness" has always been the basis for the dialogue between Chinese civilization and the world. The Nishan World Civilization Forum and the Confucius Cultural Festival are held continuously. In addition, Shandong has established friendly relations with 94 countries. It is precisely by adhering to the concept of "if people from far away are dissatisfied, then cultivate virtue and virtue" and rely on culture as a bridge to make friends and guests from all over the world. The purpose of holding the World Internet Conference in Nishan is to explore the direction of the development of artificial intelligence from the wisdom contained in Confucianism. Lin Wu, the official of the Shandong Provincial Party Committee, said that "let more and more people enjoy a better digital life." What lies behind is precisely the deep humanistic spiritual inheritance of "the people are the foundation of the country" and "sharing well-being." This is not only economic cooperation, but also a confident display of the "legitimacy of Chinese culture" in the era of globalization. It uses "cultural thickness" to give a boost to high-quality development, and then contributes Qilu wisdom to building a community with a shared future for mankind.
