Chinese traditional culture which has been accumulating for several millenniums is the fertile soil in which Chinese national spirits has been nourished. The Civilized China has been gradually tended to decline to the West since the modern times. Chinese traditional culture stepped into the difficult course of modernization with "the West transitting to the East" in which the self-modernity transformation was the main characteristic. But when Chinese traditional culture has finally difficultly gone out of the modern times, positively marched into modern age, it has to treads into the prosperous new times of the modernity transformation to satisfy the need of modern China and diligently develop the new socialist culture of the globalization age. Since the modern times Chinese traditional culture modernization has been carried on in "the rapid march", which caused the serious "birth defect" of the.cultural modernization. In the new ages of globalization, the culture as well as politics and the economy will change in accordance. Chinese traditional culture will have to converge the flood tide of globalization, and start out new forms and new content which will construct the new culture. It is needed for the modernity transformation of Chinese traditional culture to complete "the dual variations" of the modernity transformation of Chinese characteristics.In the age of globalization, it present the bright multi-dimensional trend of the world cultures development. Observed From the national and historical characteristic in the culture-producting, different cultural values have the different cognition ways. Along with the Blending of the world various cultures, the mutual transcendence and the complementary characteristic between the different cultures will display gradually which will provide new constructive significance for Chinese traditional culture after being through the repeated hundred years of passive adaptation modernization which will bring the new turning point for the Chinese traditional culture modernity transformation. Chinese traditional values such as the harmonious natural view, the social view, human's self-awareness as well as regarding human's ultimate concern and so on the outstanding cultural tradition, is no doubt the constructive significance factor to the modern China new culture as well as the world cultures, which will play the vital role in atonementing the insufficiencies of Western modernity, alleviating the tension between the human , nature and the society, eliminating human's disassimilation and promoting the full-scale development of the human freedom.The direct aim for Advancing Chinese traditional culture's modernity transformation is to establish the new socialist culture of Chinese characteristic, which adapts with the socialism initial stage, based upon Chinese new construction practice. At the same time, it must take the Marxism-Leninism, the Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory, the important thought of "The Three Represents" and the Scientific Development Views as the instruction. The western cultures reside in the assistance status from which Chinese traditional culture's modernity transformation can gain the important model and the beneficial supplement.Since the modern times, as to how to advance Chinese traditional culture's modernity transformation, there have been more than ten arguments such as "Eastern Body, Western Utilizations", "Western Body, Eastern Utilizations", "the Standard Culture", "the Totally Westernization", "the Creative Transformation", and so on, which have made the contribution for the traditional culture's modernity transformation on varying degrees. But, all those viewpoints also have some kinds of historical limitations. Since the 20th century, the view of Abstractive Inheritance and the Synthesis Innovation have widen the new feasible ways and made certain achievement in advancing its modern transformation. In the prosperous globalization today, it is a new feasible choice for the mordenity transformation to persist the view of "Cultural Multi-dimensional Coexisting" and rich and develop "Cultural Synthesis Innovation", to promote the traditional culture's modernity transformation and construct new Chinese socialist culture.On the guide of the views of "Cultural Multi-dimensional Coexisting" and "Cultural Synthesis Innovation", Chinese traditional culture will inevitably direct to the "Modernization" which manifests "the modernity" of full-significance. Advancing this process, we must persist the Marxist point of view and methodology, and achieve the Trinity of make Marxism Chinese, Chinese traditional culture Marxism as well as the world cultures Chinese. The direct goal and the significance of Chinese traditional culture are lying in leading Chinese outstanding culture tradition to the populace lives, displaying its social and nationality's moral enlightenment function, and advancing the modernization of Chinese society.The modernity transformation of Chinese traditional culture should firstly satisfy today's China's modernization progress. In this foundation, it will be necessary and feasible to make positive contribution for the world civilization development, which will be its deep significance.
