In recent years, one of the world's most enthusiastic participants has beenChinaThe coverage of china is so full of national media。
In these voices of interest to china, there are warm praises and even unrealistic applauses, as well as harsh wordsCriticismEven scolding. We're a faceless people, whose praises are often lost. Without knowing where he is, criticism is repugnant, and it is considered an insult, a provocation and a look at china with coloured glasses。
Actually, it doesn't have to be on the line. There is no denying that some criticisms have strategic objectives behind them, such as “china’s threat theory” and “yellow curse theory”; that some criticisms are the professional function of a particular media, such as the voice of america; and that some criticisms are that the author does not like china’s intransigence. However, there are many criticisms of china that are kind and objective。
There is no denying the fact that more attention has been paid to china. We know that the media are often very utilitarian and realistic, and it takes into account the preferences of the audience or the reader. At the same time, the important function of the media is to monitor and criticize, and therefore to gain an audience. As national audiences focus on china, the media naturally intensify their coverage of china, which also means that criticism of china inevitably increases。
Concern about china is due to its growing influence. Politically, the coordination and resolution of international hotspot issues cannot be achieved without the involvement of china; economically, whether or not china's economic stimulus plans have been introduced has driven the nerves of the world; and militarily, there are rumours that china's military expenditures are not transparent and that china's carriers are being built ... It can be said that china has never had such a wide and deep connection with the world in its history, and that it has never been so criticized。
Criticism is a good thing, at least an affirmation of china's status and influence, and perhaps the critics themselves agree. The united states is the most criticized in the world because of its status as a super-power and its influence on the global political economy. As china's strength and influence grow, criticism will grow, and this is inevitable。
It was said that china had been beaten 100 years ago, that it had starved 50 years ago and that it was now being abused. From a deep historical perspective, it explains why the chinese are being abused. If china is still closed and poor, no one has the liberty to scold you, and if china eats its own last meal, of course it doesn’t care if others are scolding me or boasting me. Now, the country is strong, it feels good, it can open its eyes to us, it is more critical of us, and it is somewhat incomprehensible。
Indeed, the growing number of criticisms is precisely an indication of china's equal integration into the world。
The ancient china, which belongs to the heavenly and the central state, has little experience of dealing equally with the outside world. As a tien dynasty, it is natural for the state to be afraid to criticize, and for the state to say half of the word “no”, it is like the state of nightingale, which says “han is above me”, that will suffer from the scourge of extinction, and it is natural that it is not willing to humiliate itself or cause trouble。
As far as the opium war is concerned, china has been forced to open its doors to look to the west with a humiliating mentality, where national self-confidence has collapsed almost completely, and external criticism continues to fuel sensitive and fragile nerves. In that mentality, criticism is often seen as insulting and unable to face it with a normal mindset. More critically, few people were willing to criticize china at the time, and there was no need to criticize — if they were dissatisfied, they could deal directly with the qinghui family or local officials, without thinking or having to talk to you。
Since the establishment of the new china, it has been “closed” for decades, and everything is wrong with american imperialism and, of course, the criticism of the united states emperor is a conspiracy that cannot be tolerated. China did not begin to integrate into the world until reform and opening up. In the first decade of this process (the 1980s), the west greeted china with more praise than criticism, while the chinese looked at the west with humility. In the second decade, foreign fears and expectations of china began to go hand in hand; in the third decade, the rise in china’s status led to a myriad of suspicions, many criticisms and praises; and in 2010, the new decade began with more critical voices。
This process, like the bride-in-law's marriage to a large household, was quickly replaced by subsequent bumps. In other words, it is a good thing to twitch and criticize, at least to say that you are not a relationship of bullying and bullying, like you were a hundred years ago; you are not a relationship of hostility, like the cold war, but you are a relationship of competition and cooperation. At this point in time, criticism is an expression of dissent, a channel for the discharge of grievances, and i would like to express my indignation and protest; you say that i trade protectionism and i say that you are dumping, a normal and understandable expression among partners。
We need to focus not on whether or not we are being attacked, but on why and why. Just as human beings, rational wisdom to face criticism and blame is the maturity and normal mentality that a growing power deserves。
