With Globalization as the background of discussion, in this paper the author explore and study the historical mission of modern Wushu inheriting and propagating the Chinese traditional Culture from the angle of culture study, sociology and communication in order to develop the Chinese traditional culture, to construct the harmony society and to achieve the great revivification of Chinese nation.With the development of China history, Chinese Wushu has absorbed not only the Confucianism, Taoism, military science and Buddhism ideas, but also has consanguineous relation with Chinese traditional medicine and religion. During the process, "oneness of nature and man", "unity of knowledge and action", "masculine and feminine theory", "Tai-chi theory", "five elements theory", traditional Wushu virtue and some excellent national spirits have been embodied in the Chinese Wushu. So, we can say that Chinese Wushu contains the kernel of Chinese traditional culture, embody the basic spirit of Chinese nation and overflowed with China traditional culture factors.In the background of globalization, Chinese national traditional culture faces great opportunities and challenges. The culture communion and culture conflict make it vital that culture up to date need to be integrated, the "culture hegemony" arising from western has endangered other countries' culture safety. The era compel us have to keep high level "culture consciousness". In this kind of history era and international environment, Chinese Wushu need to inherit China traditional culture, on the other hand, it have to met lots of challenges and opportunities which are provided by west countries. Today, excellent Chinese traditional culture dying away gradually, Wushu as a precious heritage should make wise decision for its future.Reviving Chinese nation is our goal and an age-old dream. Because the Wushu carry on the profound traditional national culture and national spirit, so it's very important to inherit and to develop the Chinese nation's excellent traditional culture through Wushu. Reviving the Chinese nation need the support of nation spirit, while the nation spirit reflected from Wushu is exactly the soul of great revivification of Chinese nation. Modern Wushu not only carry on the historical mission of inheriting and propagating the Chinese excellent traditional culture, but also bear the historical mission of reviving the Chinese nation at a deeper level.At present, the conflict between eastern and western culture becoming more drastic, the Olympic culture provide a terrace and a new way to improve the culture cooperation and mutually development of eastern and western culture. The competitive Wushu make progress quickly with the Olympic movement spreading into China. The Chinese Wushu which have the Olympic affection for about 100 years posses the character of Olympic events such as sports, competition and comparability. The Wushu didn't become the 2008 Olympic event due to being born on the wrong time, but the influence and significance to Chinese traditional culture is more important than application itself. Olympic will be open for Wushu forever. In the "post-Olympic era," Wushu will continue to shoulder the historical mission of inheriting and propagating the China traditional culture.In the practice of inheriting the Chinese nation traditional culture, modern Wushu "fulfill" extremely important historical mission. In a sense, the special status of Wushu plays an irreplaceable role. The traditional Wushu is the major arena for inheriting and propagating the Chinese traditional culture, the Wushu festival emerging one after another is the important part of inheriting and developing the traditional culture. The traditional Wushu is the foundation of competitive Wushu and the competitive Wushu with the aid of its special international and domestic status not only succeed in being integrated with the competitive sports, but also find a way to inherit and to develop the Chinese traditional culture. The Wushu education in school have many advantage in propagating and developing the tradition culture, which is also the breeding ground for cultivating the national spirit. The Wushu association and the Wushu festival in university have been always the medium for inheriting and propagating the traditional national culture. But, contemporary Wushu in the process of inheriting the Chinese traditional culture faces difficulty choice of inhering the traditional culture and conforming to the internationalized trend at the same time. We need to reflect and to deal with how to work out a solution.
