What is the Theory of Modernization 20

Modernization refers to the process of modernizing and reforming a country in the economic, political, and social aspects. It is often accompanied by urbanization, industrialization, and the formation of modern social structures. Modernization is the only way for the development of modern countries, and many countries have achieved national modernization through economic reform, political system reform, cultural tradition innovation, and scientific and technological innovation.

The signs of modernization usually include the following points: the process of industrialization, the process of urbanization, the increase in per capita income, the improvement of the level and quality of science and technology, the change of political system and social structure, the increase in the penetration rate of education, and the rise of modern culture. In general, modernization is the key to the modernization process of the country and a transitional period for the economic, social and political development of the country.

The ideas and ideas of modernity originated in Europe and originated in the Enlightenment in the 17th century. Since then, European countries have embarked on a series of modernization changes, trying to adapt to the situation and needs of modernization in economic, social and political aspects. In the late 19th century, with the expansion of European colonial empires and the capitalist system, modernization began to become the modernization development path of major countries in the world.

Many countries, including Japan and the United States, have experienced many problems and challenges in the process of modernization, but the advancement of modernization is still one of the important ways for countries to strive for development and maintain competitiveness.

In the process of modernization, many countries are facing tremendous challenges and difficulties in both economic and political fields. For developing countries, modernization is even more difficult and tortuous. The main reasons include poverty, lack of resources, cultural and traditional barriers, instability of political and social structures, and many natural disasters.

Against this background, how to accelerate the process of modernization and promote the modernization of the country has become an important issue faced by many countries in the development of high-level acres. Therefore, it is necessary for all countries to adopt appropriate policy means to gradually realize the modernization of the country and enhance its strength and influence to meet the challenges of globalization and market-oriented competition. <>

Modernization, also known as modernization, derives from the same word "modernization" and is marked by economic industrialization and political democratization. In China, modernization is industrialization and the political, economic, and cultural changes that accompany industrialization, and it is to realize the transformation of society, that is, to transform from medieval society to modern society.

1.In the initial stage (from the Opium War in 1840 to the Sino-Japanese War in 1895), it was mainly the Westernists who led the Westernization movement and took the first step towards economic modernization.

2.The overall stage of development (after the Sino-Japanese War in 1895 and the defeat of the Great Revolution in 1927) is also the most important stage. Learning from the advanced science and technology culture of the West and changing the social system have been organically combined, and China's modernization has taken a big step forward.

3.The tortuous advance stage (after the defeat of the Great Revolution in 1927 to before the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949).

The meaning of modernization.

The inevitable trend of human society from traditional agricultural civilization to modern industrial civilization is mainly marked by economic industrialization, political democratization, and ideological enlightenment. In China, modernization is industrialization and the political, economic, and cultural changes that accompany industrialization, and it is the transformation of the entire society, from a feudal society to a modern capitalist society.

Modernization means capitalism. It includes: democratization and legalization in politics, industrialization and commercialization in the economic field, and rationalization and scientificization in ideology.

Compared with tradition, the process of modernization is the process of transformation from traditional society to modern society, which will bring about changes in various aspects such as social productive forces, economic system, political system, ideology and culture, and even people's way of life, values, and psychological attitudes, and the core of this is economic industrialization and political democratization.

There are many manifestations of modernization.

Politically, it is mainly manifested in the establishment of the capitalist system (that is, the emergence of a new political system), and in the economy, it is mainly the emergence of the capitalist economic situation represented by large factories (such as monopoly enterprises and the germination of capitalism).

Culturally, it is mainly the spread of new ideas (including the three major Enlightenment movements of the capitalist world).

Modernization refers to the transformation of the nature of society, and the Westernization Movement is the first modernization movement in the history of our country.

China's "modernization" is translated from the Japanese word for "modernization." So some people say it's modernization, some people say it's modernization. You can understand that in modern society, these two words are the same meaning, while in today's society, the word modernization is used more because after all, modern society has passed.

In other words, modernization covers a wider time frame than modernization. In the usual sense, the signs of modernization are: economic industrialization, political establishment of nation-states, democracy and legalization, cultural scientific rationality and liberal emancipation, and so on.

Modernization and modernization are two different concepts, and they are not exactly the same. Modernization refers to a form of social change that emerged in Western Europe during the modern historical period (late 17th century to the end of the 18th century), and it is a path of modernization adopted by the upper class. In this process, a series of modern ideas have been introduced on a large scale, and a series of scientific and technological progress, machine substitution of manual labor, etc., have been initiated in Western Europe, but this process has also been accompanied by a series of social changes such as colonial expansion, revolution in production technology, and global integration centered on Western Europe.

Modernization, on the other hand, refers to the profound changes and reconstructions in various aspects such as the mode of production, social system, cultural cognition and values that have taken place under a certain historical background and in a wider area and scope. It is a massive social change that has occurred in many countries around the world in the early days of the state and gradually in the mainstream world. Different from modernization, modernization development is actually a bottom-up process from the inside out, which is promoted, led and constructed by the broad masses of people in Bisui.

It can be said that modernization is a further development and improvement on the basis of modernization. The development of modernization, on the other hand, is broader, including not only the mode of production and the means of production, social forms and social systems, but also the recognition of various concepts and values such as modern science and technology, market economy, democracy and freedom, and human rights.

In short, modernization is the prelude and starting point of modernization, and modernization is the continuation and publication of modernization, and it has expanded into a global process of profound change. <>
