Abstract
Since the beginning of the 21st century,the world has undergone profound changes unseen in a century,and the destiny of humanity has arrived at a crossroads.Confronted with the substantive crises and development challenges amid cultural chaos,humanity needs to reflect on the functions and significance of culture from the standpoint of a global cultural community and to secure ways to overcome the obstacles and difficulties that hinder its future progress and prosperity.From the perspective of the development history of human culture,the functions and significance of culture have gradually emerged in the practical logic of human cultural creation and cultural consciousness.Firstly,culture is the spiritual home of humanity,the ultimate source of a perpetual impetus for human survival and development.When people create culture,they also create their own spiritual home,whose cultural functions and significance are not abstract or void,but constitute the objective basis for the existence and the essence of life.Secondly,culture has value-oriented functions and significance.Cultural differences often imply differences in values and behaviors.When the value orientation of culture is dominated by common ground in relation to differences,culture exhibits a trend of communication,coexistence and integration;when the value orientation of culture is dominated by differences in relation to common ground,culture manifests a state of opposition,contradiction,and division.Thirdly,culture underpins the survival and development of humanity in that it serves as endogenous forces that promote cultural exchange,dissemination,and integration,leading to a vision of a community with a shared future for mankind that features mutual learning,win-win cooperation and future orientation among diverse civilizations.关键词
