The concept of the common destiny of mankind originates in Chinese culture – WORLD

The concept of the common destiny of mankind has its origins in Chinese culture.In his speech at the Moscow Institute of International Relations on March 23, 2013, Chinese President Xi Jinping for the first time presented the concept of the common destiny of mankind.In recent years, the concept of humanity’s partnership in destiny has continually added positive energy to the international community, guiding the future of humanity. The concept of the common destiny of mankind also reflects Xi Jinping’s emphasis on traditional Chinese culture.Xi Jinping approached Confucian culture three times in a yearIn late 2013, Chinese President Xi Jinping made a special trip to Qufu, Confucius’ hometown and birthplace of Confucianism in Shandong Province, to view the Confucius Mansion and Confucius Institute. In a conversation with scholars, Xi Jinping stated that the true spirit of traditional culture should be continued in modern expression, and traditional culture should play a more important role today. On May 4, 2014, Xi Jinping privately visited the 87-year-old famous philosopher Professor Tang Yijie. Xi Jinping learned about the book “Basic Principles of Confucius”. Chairman Xi said, “This is a very meaningful work because the continuation of Chinese civilization has been secured. Mr. Tang contributed greatly to this.” said.On September 24, 2014, Xi Jinping attended and delivered a speech at an international scientific seminar dedicated to the 2565th anniversary of Confucius. This was the first time a high-ranking state leader had attended and spoke at an international symposium commemorating the birth of Confucius. The concept of the partnership of the fate of mankind is the current continuation of traditional Chinese culture. Xi Jinping took the essence of governance from the prominent Chinese traditional culture, including Confucianism, and also found solutions to world problems in Confucianism. The beautiful traditional culture of China, including Confucianism, offers important knowledge to solve the problems that modern people face. Only when we can inherit can we innovate. Beautiful traditional culture is a fundamental element of the heritage and development of a country or nation. Its loss leads to the cutting of the veins of the spiritual life of the country or nation. The concept of “the common destiny of mankind” is one of the central elements of Xi Jinping’s thinking in the field of international relations. The concept of “the common destiny of mankind” is also historically and value-wise connected with the Confucian conception “The world should be like a peaceful family” in ancient China. All can live in peace, all principles can be found in harmony without conflict. Only through peaceful coexistence can the countries of the world achieve long-term stability and security through common and mutually beneficial development.” said.
