“天人合一”是一个古老的哲学命题,而“科学发展观”是十六届三中全会我党提出的新的发展思想和发展战略。本文旨在探讨古老的“天人合一”思想与“科学发展观”的相通之处和内在契合点,从一个侧面说明儒学与社会现代化的关系。 “Unity of man and nature” is an ancient philosophical proposition, while “the scientific concept of development” is a new development thought and development strategy proposed by our party at the Third Plenary Session of the 16th CPC Central Committee. The purpose of this article is to explore the connection between the ancient idea of ​​“harmony between man and nature” and the “scientific concept of development” and its internal connection, and to illustrate the relationship between Confucianism and social modernization from one aspect.
