倾听尼山2025｜郑长忠：现代家庭传承文化并非对传统简单复刻

Core Viewpoint - The 11th Nishan World Civilization Forum will be held in July 2025, focusing on the theme of "the relationship between civilizations and global modernization" and addressing various subtopics related to cultural transmission and social development [1][2]. Group 1: Family and Civilization - Family is identified as a fundamental unit of society that plays a crucial role in the birth and development of civilization, carrying functions such as cultural transmission, identity formation, and emotional support [3][5]. - The modern family structure has undergone significant changes during the modernization process, yet its foundational role in civilization construction remains vital [3][5]. - The concept of "self-production and nurturing" within families is emphasized as a core carrier for the transmission of values and skills, with traditional values like "filial piety" being adapted in modern contexts [3][9]. Group 2: Changes in Family Structure - Modern family structures are characterized by smaller sizes, intergenerational dispersion, and delayed marriages, which are influenced by various socio-economic factors [8][10]. - The shift from large extended families to nuclear families is driven by the externalization of production functions and changing societal norms [8][10]. - The weakening of horizontal kinship ties due to intergenerational dispersion is noted, with new emotional communities forming among younger generations [9][10]. Group 3: Cultural Transmission - Cultural transmission in modern families is not a simple replication of traditional practices but involves a critical examination of what to inherit and how to creatively transform traditional culture [9][10]. - The essence of traditional values persists in modern family dynamics, even as structural changes occur, highlighting the adaptability of cultural practices [9][10]. Group 4: Policy and Social Support - The importance of multi-party collaboration in family construction is highlighted, with a call for policies that support family development through cooperation among families, schools, communities, and enterprises [12][15]. - The need for a family time guarantee as a social investment is emphasized, with suggestions for national policies to support this initiative [15].
