The Current Identity Crisis and the Reconstruction

The Editor's Note: Along the development of modern science and technology and the speeding of globalization, all the nations and countries are confronted with the problem of new opportunities and challenges in economy, politics and culture. That is, globalization is de-coding and re-forming the traditional social structures and organizations, which provides a new motive and platform for the development of each nation. Meanwhile, globalization is mercilessly invading and squeezing the developmental space of each nation, particularly that of national and traditional culture, which accordingly results in an identity crisis. In principle, each nation should maintain its fine tradition, and at the same time face globalization, i.e. to keep a balance between sticking to the traditional culture and the constant reconstruction of new identity. For this issue, the editor board of this journal invited several professors from School of Philosophy and Sociology of BNU to discuss the topic.
