Abstract

Chinese civilization is one of the oldest. For many centuries, it developed exclusively on its own basis. In the twentieth century, acquaintance with Western civilization led to debates about traditional Chinese values, in which various points of view were expressed, ranging from complete denial to total praise. In recent decades, there has been a gradual realization that the teachings of Confucius and his followers represent a great spiritual wealth. There is a re-evaluation of the teachings of Chinese thinkers of the past. The historical experience of China's civilizational development contains valuable lessons for Russia.

Keywords

Discussions about traditional values, the views of representatives of the conservative, liberal and Marxist camps, the modern understanding of traditional values, the historical role of Confucianism, valuable lessons for Russia
