發(fā)祥于天臺山的和合文化,是中華“和”文化的重要瑰寶。面對當(dāng)前百年變局與世紀(jì)疫情疊加交織的復(fù)雜局面,世界期待不同思想交流碰撞、不同文明包容互鑒。倡導(dǎo)和平、和睦、和諧的“和”文化,就是中國向世界貢獻(xiàn)的禮物,將為完善全球治理、解決人類共同挑戰(zhàn)帶來有益啟示。面向未來,一是要堅持和而不同,倡導(dǎo)真正的多邊主義;二是要堅持合作共贏,構(gòu)建開放型世界經(jīng)濟(jì);三是要堅持人文主義,弘揚(yáng)全人類共同價值。
——中國外文局局長杜占元
和合文化是歷史的,也是當(dāng)代的;是中國的,也是世界的。作為和合文化的主要發(fā)源地,浙江有責(zé)任倡導(dǎo)和而不同、美美與共的價值理念,積極探索解決人類社會面臨的共同問題。我們要從和合文化中去尋找解決人類共同問題的方案,引導(dǎo)國際社會走出對立分歧,走出經(jīng)濟(jì)危機(jī),走出價值觀沖突,積極推動和合理念成為應(yīng)對全球性問題的廣泛共識,為共同構(gòu)建人類命運(yùn)共同體作出積極貢獻(xiàn)。
——浙江省政協(xié)副主席吳晶
外交的本質(zhì)在于尋求與具有不同價值觀和思維方式的國家、人民和平相處,其中重要的是友愛精神?!昂秃稀迸c“友愛”的共通之處在于和諧與合作。放眼當(dāng)前的國際關(guān)系,各國意見不同是客觀事實。和合外交意味著,雙方即使觀點(diǎn)不同也不能全盤否定對方,而是必須努力與對方和解,這樣才能建立雙贏的局面。
——日本前首相、東亞共同體研究所理事長鳩山由紀(jì)夫
進(jìn)入后疫情時代,推動世界實現(xiàn)可持續(xù)、公平的復(fù)蘇是共同的目標(biāo),而和諧與合作可以達(dá)成這一點(diǎn)。加強(qiáng)全球合作、促進(jìn)和平與安全、公平地再全球化、促進(jìn)性別平等、可持續(xù)地重建、深化公私合作、提高全球復(fù)原力等七條原則,對于達(dá)成共同構(gòu)建人類命運(yùn)共同體的全球共識具有重要意義。
——馬耳他共和國駐上??傤I(lǐng)事韓彌敦
臺州是和合文化的標(biāo)志地、實踐地和傳播地,在和合文化的歷史積淀中有著重要地位。面向現(xiàn)代化建設(shè)和共同富裕先行的新征程,我們將加強(qiáng)弘揚(yáng)和傳播和合文化,推動和合文化走出臺州、走出國門、走向世界,為消弭文明分歧、建設(shè)大同世界提供跨越族群、潤物無聲的力量。
——中共臺州市委書記李躍旗
本屆論壇對于充分挖掘展示中華和合文化之精髓,倡導(dǎo)和平發(fā)展、合作共贏理念,促進(jìn)全球人類文化進(jìn)步,共建利己達(dá)人、和合共生的美麗世界具有重要價值。和合文化既能夠讓世界各國認(rèn)同中華文化,又能夠幫助世界各國解決具有共同性的人類問題。面臨百年未有之大變局,我們也深刻認(rèn)識到,和合雖好,但不會從天而降,和合共生需要世界各國相向而行,有時甚至需要通過斗爭來實現(xiàn),通過斗爭贏得尊重、求得發(fā)展。中國將矢志不渝為實現(xiàn)真民主、真和平而不懈奮斗。
——中國外文局副局長陸彩榮
和合文化對增進(jìn)不同國家、種族、宗教、文明之間的交流對話,促進(jìn)世界和平發(fā)展有著重要的理論價值和現(xiàn)實意義。
——聯(lián)合國前副秘書長金垣洙
無論身處哪一國度,人類都只有一個地球,共處一個世界。同而不同,不同而同,“和合”是人類發(fā)展的大趨勢,和合文化將越來越被認(rèn)可。芭蕾藝術(shù)起源于芭蕾,活躍于世界各個舞臺,百家爭鳴,多彩多姿,攜手共進(jìn)。60年來,中國芭蕾從姍姍學(xué)步到自信起舞,通過了解芭蕾藝術(shù),可以了解中國藝術(shù)、中國文化的精髓,和合文化的內(nèi)涵。
——中央芭蕾舞團(tuán)團(tuán)長馮英
天人合一的宇宙觀是以人與自然和諧相處為目標(biāo),協(xié)和萬邦的國際觀是推動人類命運(yùn)共同體的構(gòu)建,和而不同的社會觀是要求交往應(yīng)保持一種和諧友善的關(guān)系。和合文化蘊(yùn)含著天人合一的世界觀,世界必然需要這種和而不同的理念。我有幾件表達(dá)“和合”的雕塑作品:《神遇——孔子與蘇格拉底的對話》,二人分立東西,跨越時空國界進(jìn)行交流;《超越時空的對話——達(dá)芬奇與齊白石》,這是藝術(shù)的偉大對話。人類因“和”而發(fā)展,和合文化,將引領(lǐng)人類共筑美好世界。
——中國美術(shù)館館長吳為山
和合文化是中華文化高貴而華麗的基因,具有深遠(yuǎn)的世界影響,而天臺則是和合文化得天獨(dú)厚的傳承平臺。和合文化本身就是中華文化的精髓,講好和合文化的故事,最重要的一點(diǎn)就是把和合文化落實到這座城市、這片土地和我們這個時代的日常生活中。在疫情肆虐的當(dāng)下,各國更要有一種和合的胸懷,把地球看作一個共同的家園。和合文化絕不限于這一片土地,是整個人類共同的財富,是應(yīng)該共同加以珍惜的文化遺產(chǎn)。要把中國文化的重要概念與故事,用世界其他民族的通用語言介紹出去。
——復(fù)旦大學(xué)歷史系教授錢文忠
人類命運(yùn)共同體是真善美的藝術(shù)世界,體現(xiàn)著中國和合精神價值理想對未來的期望。人類向何處去?未來走什么樣的路?和合文化是指引航向的一種價值理念。我們弘揚(yáng)“尚和合”的思想,為“天下和合”奠定堅實的基礎(chǔ)。
——中國人民大學(xué)哲學(xué)系教授、和合文化研究所所長張立文
天臺將致力于“和合文化”的活態(tài)傳承、“和合基地”的品牌塑造、“和合開放”的共榮共興以及“和合善治”的生動實踐。
——天臺縣委書記楊玲玲
和合文化是我珍視的一種理念。雖然別人說我是個西方人,但我在為人處世方面已經(jīng)有很多中國文化的痕跡。以和為貴,和合文化代表了我喜歡的中國文化,其中不光有歷史基因,還有文學(xué)和哲學(xué)韻味?,F(xiàn)在全球面臨很多挑戰(zhàn),需要我們齊心協(xié)力應(yīng)對,和合文化就是一種特別正確向上的價值觀。

What They Say about the Hehe Culture
Compiled by Xiao Yanyan
Hehe culture, which originated in the Tiantai Mountains in Taizhou, is an important treasure of the Chinese “He” (harmony) culture. In light of the major changes unfolding in the world and the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, the world looks forward to the exchange of different ideas and the inclusiveness of different civilizations. The “He” culture, which calls for peace, amity and harmony is China’s gift to the world. It will bring inspiration to improving global governance and addressing the common challenges of mankind. Looking into the future, we need to uphold the concept of “harmony without uniformity” and advocate genuine multilateralism. Second, we need to pursue win-win cooperation and build an open world economy. Third, we should uphold humanism and promote the common values of mankind.
——Du Zhanyuan, President of China International Communication Group (CICG)
The Hehe culture is both historical and contemporary, and it belongs to both China and the world. As a major cradle of the Hehe culture, Zhejiang has the responsibility to advocate the ideas of “harmony without uniformity” and “respecting and cherishing the beauty of different cultures”, and actively explore solutions to the common problems faced by mankind. We should draw on the Hehe culture for answers, guide the international community out of confrontation and division, out of economic crisis and out of conflict of values, and make the concept of Hehe a broad consensus in addressing global issues, in order to contribute to the establishment of a community with a shared future for mankind.
——Wu Jing, Vice Chairperson of the CPPCC Zhejiang Provincial Committee
The essence of diplomacy lies in seeking peaceful coexistence with countries and peoples with different values and ways of thinking. What “Hehe” (harmony) and “Yuai”(fraternity) have in common is harmony and cooperation. Looking at today’s international relations, it is a fact that countries differ in their views. Hehe diplomacy means that both sides should not completely reject each other when they have different views. Instead, they should try to compromise with each other so as to create a win-win situation.
——Yukio Hatoyama, Former Prime Minister of Japan and Chairman of the East Asian Community Institute
In the post-COVID-19 era, it is our common goal to promote a sustainable and equitable recovery in the world, which can be achieved through harmony and cooperation. The seven guiding principles, namely strengthening global cooperation, advancing peace and security, re-globalizing equitably, promoting gender equality, rebuilding sustainably, deepening public-private partnerships and increasing global resilience, are of great significance for reaching a global consensus on jointly building a community with a shared future for mankind.
——Bernard Hamilton, Consul General of the Republic of Malta in Shanghai
Taizhou is the place where the Hehe culture was born, where it has been widely practiced and from where it is disseminated, and Taizhou occupies an important position in the historical accumulation of the Hehe culture. Along the new journey of modernization and common prosperity, we will strengthen the fostering and dissemination of the Hehe culture, so that the Hehe culture can travel outside of Taizhou, outside of China and all over the world, and provide a cross-racial solution to the elimination of differences among civilizations and to the building of a harmonious world.
——Li Yueqi, Secretary of CPC Taizhou Municipal Committee
This forum is of great value to fully tap into and showcase the essence of the Chinese culture of Hehe, to advocate peaceful development and win-win cooperation, to promote the progress of culture across the globe, and to build a beautiful world where everyone coexists in peace and harmony. The Hehe culture not only enables countries around the world to identify with the Chinese culture, but also helps countries around the world to solve common problems. In the face of major changes unseen in a century, we are also keenly aware that Hehe, though good, cannot be taken for granted. Coexistence requires all countries to meet each other halfway, and sometimes even struggle is needed to win respect and development. China will unswervingly strive for true democracy and peace.
——Lu Cairong, Vice President of China International Communication Group (CICG)
The Hehe culture will be of both important theoretical and practical value in enhancing exchanges between different countries, races, religions and civilizations, and in promoting the world’s peaceful development.
——Kim Won-soo, Former Under-Secretary-General of UN
No matter which country we live in, there is only one earth and one world for mankind. We are the same, yet different; we are different, yet still the same. "Hehe" is the general trend of human development, and the Hehe culture will be increasingly recognized. Ballet is a performance dance that is now popular now all over the world, featuring a wide range of styles. Starting from scratch, Chinese ballet is now confidently dancing on the international stage after 60 years of development. By understanding the art of ballet, we can understand the essence of the Chinese art and Chinese culture, as well as the significance of the Hehe culture.
——Feng Ying, Director of National Ballet of China
The “heaven and man united as one” cosmic conception seeks harmony between man and nature and the international outlook of “harmony among all nations” seeks to promote the establishment of a community with a shared future for mankind, and the social view of “harmony without uniformity” requires that exchanges should be conducted harmoniously and in a friendly manner. The Hehe culture contains the idea of "heaven and man united as one”, and the world needs the idea of “harmony without uniformity”. Two of my sculptures illustrate the idea of Hehe the best: Confucius and Socrates: An Encounter is a dialogue across time and space and A Dialogue Across the Time: Da Vinci and Qi Baishi is a dialogue between two great artists. Mankind makes progress thanks to “He” (harmony), and the Hehe culture will lead mankind to a better world.
——Wu Weishan, Director of the National Art Museum of China
The Hehe culture is the noble and magnificent “gene” of the Chinese culture, which has far-reaching influence on the world, and Tiantai is the unique “platform” for the inheritance of the Hehe culture, the essence of the Chinese culture. The most important thing about the Hehe culture is that it should reflect the common feelings of the people and their daily lives. At a time when the epidemic is raging, it is all the more important for countries to have a harmonious mindset and see the earth as a common home. The Hehe culture is by no means limited to this piece of land. It is the common wealth of the whole mankind and should be cherished as a cultural heritage. Important concepts and stories of the Chinese culture should be introduced in other languages around the world.
——Qian Wenzhong, Professor at Department of History, Fudan University
A community with a shared future for mankind is a world of truth, goodness and beauty, which embodies visions of the Hehe culture for the future. The Hehe culture is a value system that guides the directions of mankind. We should foster the idea of “Hehe” and lay a solid foundation for “Hehe under heaven”.
——Zhang Liwen, Professor at Department of Philosophy and Director of the Institute of Hehe Culture, Renmin University of China
Taitai county is committed to the inheritance of the Hehe culture, the brand building of the “Hehe Culture Base”, the flourishing of “Hehe and openness” and the true stories and practice of “good governance under Hehe”.
——Yang Lingling, Secretary of CPC Tiantai County Committee
The Hehe culture is something that I treasure. Although people say I am from the West, I’ve already been long immersed in the Chinese culture and following the Chinese way in conducting my everyday life. Harmony is what is most prized, which is the core of Hehe culture, an embodiment of the Chinese culture I like. In Hehe culture, there is not only history, but also literary and philosophical charm. Today, the world faces many challenges that call for concerted efforts, and the Hehe culture is one of the answers to these problems.
