女士們、先生們，日新月異的信息技術(shù)給我們帶來了知識結(jié)構(gòu)與內(nèi)容的更新與革命，而全球化的浪潮更是波及人類生活的每一個層面，改變著我們局限于種族、地區(qū)與國家的傳統(tǒng)的思維方式。社會的發(fā)展與進(jìn)步也越來越多地與社會每一成員和團(tuán)體密切相關(guān)。從這個意義上來說，市民社會具有推動社會發(fā)展的重要意義。與此同時，日趨多元化的文化對社會進(jìn)步也起著極其重要的促進(jìn)作用。
Ladies and gentlemen, the ever-changing information technology has updated and revolutionized the structure and content of human knowledge. And globalization is increasingly affecting every facet of our life. Consequently, our traditional way of thinking, which used to be constrained within the mindset of ethnicity, region and state, has been drastically changed. Social development and advancement have been increasingly built into the life of every social individual and group. In this regard, the civil society is especially important for the promotion of social development and meanwhile, our culture is becoming more and more pluralistic, playing a pivotal role in pushing forward the advancement of our society.
中國有著古老燦爛的文明，同時也正在經(jīng)歷著一場歷史性的走向現(xiàn)代化的大變革。作為亞太地區(qū)的重要國家，中國正在健康地穩(wěn)步走向社會與文化的繁榮與發(fā)展。本次“亞太地區(qū)市民社會與文化多樣性天津國際論壇”就是在這一背景下舉行的。我們希望通過這次國際論壇，可以加深不同社會與文化之間的相互了解，促進(jìn)亞太地區(qū)學(xué)術(shù)界的交流，促進(jìn)本地區(qū)文化與社會的變革與發(fā)展。
China enjoys a long tradition of brilliant civilization, and is currently dedicated to the historical, vigorous transformation that leads to a modern society. China as one of the most important countries in the Asia-Pacific region is advancing healthily and steadily towards social and cultural prosperity and development. The current “Tianjin Forum on Civil Society and Cultural Pluralism in the Asia-Pacific Region" is set exactly against this background. It is our hope that the forum will intensify mutual understanding between different societies and cultures, facilitate academic exchanges in the Asia-Pacific region, and promote cultural and social changes and
development in this region.
