近代以来，中国在对自身文明传统的深刻反思和未来发展道路选择的踌躇彷徨之中，逐步探索自身的现代化道路。现代化过程必然面临文化的现代化问题。这也意味着中国传统文化的重构面临双重挑战，一方面传统文化如何融合于现代化浪潮中，另一方面如何坚守并发扬中华优秀传统文化的核心价值理念。中华优秀传统文化是中华民族的精神命脉和文化根脉，是有别于其他民族的独特标识，贯穿于中国式现代化道路之中。将中华优秀传统文化的传承问题置在中国式现代化视域下，必须厘清传承中华优秀传统文化与中国式现代化道路建设之间的关系。中国式现代化植根于中华优秀传统文化，一方面，中国式现代化的特征内含传统文化基因；另一方面，传承中华优秀传统文化在社会主义文化强国建设、国家治理体系和治理能力现代化、实现“第二个结合”三个层面对于中国式现代化具有积极意义。回顾现代化过程，中国为后发外生的现代化国家，其传统文化传承面临着来自内部与外部、历史性与现代性、理论与实践的双重困境与挑战。文化现代化意味着对传统文化进行解构与建构，伴随着如何正确处理外来文化与本土文化、传统文化与现代文化两个基本矛盾的问题；现代化带来的“反传统”危机主要表现为对个人主义的专注，破坏着传统文化的精神内核和价值旨归，而当前互联网新媒体的传播以及市场经济向非经济领域的渗透，助推了传统文化的失序；在具体实践中，中华优秀传统文化传承还面临着健全发展机制与制度保障、处理文化产业与文化事业的协调性等现实难题。针对存在的问题，如何发挥中华优秀传统文化传承作为推动中国式现代化重要一环的应有作用，可以从以下三个方面发力：其一，坚持马克思主义的指导地位，把握文化传承工作的整体方向，牢牢掌握党的文化领导权，推进马克思主义基本原理同中华优秀传统文化相结合；其二，强化对中华优秀传统文化命题的认识，坚持中华优秀传统文化创造性转化和创新性发展，深入整合中华优秀传统文化资源，创新传承方式；其三，正确处理文化传承各主体的关系，繁荣发展文化事业和文化产业，健全文化行政管理体制机制，充分发挥人民群众文化参与的作用。

Since modern times, China has gradually explored its own path of modernization through profound reflection on its own cultural traditions and hesitation in choosing its future development path. The process of modernization inevitably faces the problem of cultural modernization. This also means that the reconstruction of traditional Chinese culture faces dual challenges. On the one hand, how to integrate traditional culture into the wave of modernization, and on the other hand, how to uphold and promote the core values of excellent traditional Chinese culture.The excellent traditional Chinese culture is the root and soul of the Chinese nation, a unique symbol different from other nations, and runs through the path of Chinese path to modernization.

The current spread of new Internet media and the penetration of market economy into non economic fields have boosted the disorder of traditional culture; In specific practice, the inheritance of excellent traditional Chinese culture still faces practical challenges such as improving development mechanisms and institutional guarantees, and coordinating the cultural industry and cultural undertakings.In view of the existing problems, how to give play to the role of the inheritance of Chinese excellent traditional culture as an important part of promoting Chinese path to modernization can be made from the following three aspects: first, adhere to the guiding position of Marxism, grasp the overall direction of cultural inheritance, firmly grasp the cultural leadership of the Party, and promote the combination of the basic principles of Marxism and Chinese excellent traditional culture; Secondly, strengthen the understanding of the proposition of Chinese excellent traditional culture, adhere to the creative transformation and innovative development of Chinese excellent traditional culture, deeply integrate Chinese excellent traditional cultural resources, and innovate inheritance methods; Thirdly, correctly handling the relationship between the various subjects of cultural inheritance, promoting the prosperity and development of cultural undertakings and industries, improving the cultural administrative management system and mechanism, and fully leveraging the role of people‘s cultural participation.
