Exploration on the Normative Principles and Paths of People-to-People Exchange (CPE) among BRICS Countries from the Perspective of “A Community of Shared Future for Mankind”

People-to-people exchanges have become an important engine and power for BRICS countries to deepen cooperation and exchanges. Under the background of “anti-globalization”, rethinking the significance of “People-to-People Exchange (CPE)” from the perspective of “A Community of Shared Future for Mankind” has become an important prerequisite for deepening BRICS cooperation. The CPE among the diverse BRICS countries can not only promote the harmonious coexistence of different civilizations, enhance political mutual trust, enhance people’s friendship, and consolidate the foundation of public opinion, but also increase trust, dispel doubts, eliminate stereotypes and maintain regional peace. However, due to their long history and great cultural differences, there are still many problems to be solved urgently in the process of cultural exchanges among BRICS countries, such as the influence of cultural and religious differences, the differences between ideology and political system, and the deconstruction of “anti-globalization” trend of thought on cultural exchanges among BRICS countries. Therefore, cultivating common values on the basis of pluralistic sharing (this article is summarized as four concepts of CPE: peace, common development, mutual learning of civilizations, and respect for cultural diversity) has become an urgent task for BRICS countries to exchange and learn from each other’s civilizations. The purpose is to form a joint force, promote regional and world peace and development, and finally achieve the ultimate goal of jointly building a “BRICS Community” and a Community of Shared Future for Mankind.
