In the West, the Enlightenment can be regarded as the beginning of modern Western society is experiencing the Enlightenment Movement "baptism", and finally entered the modern society, and in China's modernization process, the 20th century Enlightenment Movement, has not been made some The social and political events forced intervention to stop China since the Enlightenment task is far from complete. In order to better promote China's modernization process, and prepare the new century Enlightenment Movement in China, we must first clear between the modernization and social modernization of the relationship .At the same time, we must also see that the modernity and the Enlightenment are closely linked. It is precisely in the Enlightenment, on the basis of Western society first before the completion of the modernization, in a modern personality is the emergence of a large number Indication modern Western world has entered the era of rational, and has entered a modern society. In China, it is precisely because of the lack of modernity enlightenment, it has stagnated China's process of modernization.Context in China, is China's Enlightenment unfinished business. Although China Contemporary socio-economic, and other aspects, has undergone enormous changes, but enlightenment is now China is still necessary, but also possible, such as contained in the Enlightenment freedom, equality, democracy, rational, rule of law, human rights, as well as content from these modern spirit the existence of the most prominent Western cultural spirit that is the nature of reflection, criticism and doubts about the awareness, it is this spirit of promoting the unique culture of Western society from the pre-modern, modern, post-modern way of step by step into the future, and China Enlightenment is to be the most modern in the sense of the essence of spiritual support - reflection, criticism, and in this formed on the basis of reason, democracy, freedom, rule of law and philosophy, so that China's own ideological and cultural access to be able to promote the transformation of their own development , the driving force of progress and a source of strength. In the Age of Enlightenment, we have to constantly create, train people to freedom, equality, fraternity, rational, science, democracy, the rule of law concepts, but not completely abandon its pre-modern society we leave the excellent traditional culture, we need to do is continuing to transform and its modern transformation to adapt to the requirements of modern society, and make it become China's new source of the important thinking of the Enlightenment. Enlightenment in Western developed countries there have been cultural crisis, to the "enlightened self-destruction." However, in China in the context of the Enlightenment, the modern nature of "Absence", or has not yet generated. Faced with the impact of postmodernism, we have to stand on the basis of a modern society to achieve Enlightenment, modernity, and this is our starting point has always been to stick to. Modern capitalism is considered natural and combine with mordernity, but my enlightenment on the pursuit of modernity, it is necessary to achieve through to the socialist road. Since the reform and opening up, China is the traditional socialist model for fundamental reform, and strive to modernity and socialist combine, in a bid to explore a set of the new model of socialism. Market economy is shaping and train citizen's awareness of modern economic and social soil, it is between enlightenment and mutual tolerance, mutual co-operative relationship, both achieving the modernization of the important ways and means, therefore, improve, and developed The market economy can achieve enlightenment of modern provide a good social environment. Lack of modern liberalism on which the growth of civil society in Europe and America - the soil that China Enlightenment several basic reasons for the failure. Therefore, a mature, strong civil society exists, can the enlightenment of modern China in the establishment of a good social foundation class. Reflect on the past, the Enlightenment movement, we can always see pragmatism, utilitarianism is the tendency of their common features, today, to truly achieve enlightenment of modern China in the establishment of the Enlightenment, we should take an objective, fair, peaceful approach to Chinese and Western cultures and their Enlightenment itself, this is the realization of the new enlightenment subjective factors. In short, we must in the contemporary China of the Age of Enlightenment, there is a correct analysis, in such a basic question posed by the seven integrity, strict framework of the Enlightenment down deliberation, the implementation of the Enlightenment, then enlightenment of modern China in the production will be possible.
