Why are people who have studied Chinese and Western cultures in modern China culturally conservative?
Strictly speaking: what is cultural conservatism? What are the characteristics of cultural conservatism? What are the causes of cultural conservatism (historical reasons, social background, cultural and ideological traditions, etc.)? What is the opposite of cultural conservatism? What role did cultural conservatism play? The answers to these questions cannot be answered by a topic or a paper. Therefore, we can take the title of "Xue Heng School", which has been accepted by everyone. We can also take the titles of Gu Hongming, Lin Shu and others and ask for a brief introduction of their thoughts. Even schools that can examine and sort out national heritage have the same-sex characteristics of groups in a specific period, but they will never be explained by the word "cultural conservatism". Because there are still many ambiguities in the definition, classification and function of this word. Up to now, in the research process of Chinese studies and modern scholars in the late Qing Dynasty, it is rare to see such a division of "cultural conservatism", or strict academic works will not be so divided. Therefore, I personally think that this term has a very high degree of vague abstract generality, but it is not suitable for specific to personal analysis.
