和而不同
Harmony But Not Uniformity
在尊重事物差異性和多樣性的基礎(chǔ)上實現(xiàn)整體的和諧共存?！巴迸c“和”是對待、安頓社會群體的兩種態(tài)度?！巴敝笇κ挛锊町愋缘哪?，“和”則意味著對事物差異性的保存與尊重。不同的事物彼此間相互輔助、補(bǔ)充，才能組成一個充滿生機(jī)、富于創(chuàng)造性的和諧整體。
The term means achieving overall harmonious co-existence on the basis of respecting differences and diversity. Uniformity and harmony are two different attitudes to treating and accommodating social groups. Uniformity means obliterating differences in everything while harmony is to keep and respect the differences. Allowing different things to complement and supplement each other will create a harmonious whole full of vitality and creativity.
