Abstract

Cosmopolitanism is an ideal, not a reality. It's a decentralized theory, not a systematic theory. It has many different names. From the ancient to the modern times, it has been increasingly perfect and close to realization. It has been partially fulfilled in the world. Confucius once advocated "great harmony with the world". Sun Yat-sen carried forward the concept of "the world for the common good"，and he absorbed the "universal ideas" of Western socialists. The idea of "world government" was formed in recent times. It was the ideal of our sages to organize a "union of sovereign states" to jointly maintain peace and eliminate war. This article is just to sort out the idea of the unity of the world, without any practical suggestions. This is a theoretical idea, not a practical one. Chinese scholars in modern times studied western ideas and then used them to examine Chinese classics to find new ideas. By combing through old papers, they gained a lot and were able to enlighten the people. We should have a grand vision, facing the world more advanced thinkers broad spirit.

中国文化传统与世界主义

世界主义是一种理想，而不是现实。这是一个分散的理论，而不是一个系统的理论。它有很多不同的名字。从古代到现代，它已经越来越完善和接近实现。它在世界上已经部分实现了。孔子曾提倡“大同天下”。孙中山提出了“天下为公”的思想，吸收了西方社会主义者的“普世思想”。“世界政府”的概念是在近代形成的。我们先贤的理想是组织一个“主权国家联盟”，共同维护和平，消除战争。本文只是对世界统一思想的梳理，没有任何实际的建议。这是一个理论性的想法，而不是一个实践性的想法。近代中国学者研究西方思想，然后用它们来研究中国经典，以寻找新的思想。通过对旧论文的梳理，他们收获颇丰，并且能够启发人们。我们要有远大的眼光，面向世界更先进的思想家宽广的精神。
