The Construction of National Studies and Cultural Identity in the Process of Modernization in East Asia

In the process of modernization in East Asia, the construction of national studies (guoxue) and the evolution of cultural identity have demonstrated unique cultural pathways and characteristics of social transformation. This paper delves into the changes in the concept of guoxue against the backdrop of East Asian modernization and its pivotal role in cultural transformation. By analyzing the initial concepts of guoxue, the paper reveals its complex role in guiding cultural transformation and constructing national cultural identity. Guoxue not only serves as a carrier of traditional knowledge but also acts as a bridge connecting tradition and modernity in the modernization processes of East Asian countries, facilitating the reshaping and deepening of cultural identity. The paper highlights the multifunctionality of guoxue in the East Asian modernization process, including education, social integration, and nation-building. Through comparative analysis, it showcases the differences and commonalities in the construction of guoxue across East Asian countries, as well as the cultural logic and social mechanisms behind these differences. The construction of guoxue in different countries reflects the variations in their historical traditions, social structures, and political-economic conditions, while also mirroring the shared values and cultural genes within the East Asian cultural sphere. The paper concludes by envisioning the future of guoxue construction and cultural identity in East Asian modernization, proposing ways to promote cultural dialogue and mutual understanding among East Asian countries in the context of globalization while maintaining cultural diversity. As an essential component of East Asian culture, the future development of guoxue should focus more on cross-cultural dialogue and exchange to promote peace and development in the East Asian region.
