摘要

中国人良好的秉性在中国有着几千年的历史，并得到历史验证，是维护社会稳定的重要精神力量。真正的中国人的精神是永葆青春的精神，是民族不朽的精神。真正的中国人所具有的绅士性、同情心、质朴、对父母的孝顺、对社会道德的遵从、无私精神无论是对当下的中国还是全球社会都有着重要意义。传统中国人的精神在现代背景下得到了继承和发展，帮助当今中国解决许多社会问题，如社会道德问题，民主发展的问题，食品安全问题等等。中国人的精神蕴藏在其国家信仰------儒教中,所以中国人的精神很大程度上来自儒家文化。对儒家文化的传播和发展有利于中国社会稳定、经济繁荣，提升国际形象。本文从研究辜鸿铭所著《中国人的精神》出发，通过对当前中国的观察，发掘中国人精神的意义。
