20世纪末文化学术思潮颇为活跃 ,新儒学主义、新保守主义、自由主义、民族主义成为文化争论的“热点”。当代中国的文化有主流与支流之分。不拒细流 ,方成长江大河 ;不清除支流中的污染 ,主流中的生命活力就会受侵害。三代领导人的文化思想是我国主流文化的指导思想。江泽民提出要坚持主流文化的指导地位 ,认真对待支流 ,这一创新提法体现了战略远谋与现实针对性的有机统一 At the end of 20th century, the academic and cultural currents of thought were quite active. Neo-Confucianism, neo-conservatism, liberalism and nationalism became the “hot spots” of cultural debate. Contemporary Chinese culture has the mainstream and tributaries. Not refuse to trickle down, as the Yangtze River; do not clear the tributaries of the pollution, the vitality of the mainstream will be infringed.

Jiang Zemin proposed that we should adhere to the guiding status of the mainstream culture and treat the tributaries seriously. This innovative formulation reflects the organic unity of strategic foresight and reality
