Chapter 4 In order to find frost roots

After the Second World War, due to the poverty caused by the war and the urgent need for revival, all countries worked hard on material construction. In the past 30 years, an unprecedented prosperity in the world has been formed. Except for a few areas, there are still some Apart from the outbreak of war, it can be said that they are all living a stable and prosperous life, especially in Western countries, the enjoyment of material civilization has reached an undreamt state; but unfortunately, due to the neglect of rebuilding human culture, The long period of material prosperity has corrupted people's hearts; traditional ideas have been denied, but there is no new mainstream to replace them; Some of the younger generation are also born at a loss and don't know why, but they can only be decadent and obedient.This kind of worldly trend is manifested in the Western international political society, especially in the chaos and confusion, good and evil are not distinguished, right and wrong are unclear, and friends and enemies are not distinguished.For more than 20 years after the war, there have been no more talented leaders in the Western world.However, several big countries in the West play an important role in the world situation. In what direction will they lead to the safety and well-being of mankind?This is a question that people have to think about all the time.

Mr. Yan Zhenyu, President of National Taiwan University, recently returned from a visit to famous universities in Europe and the United States. The author talked to him about the university education in Europe and the United States. Ideas and central ideas to inspire the sense of responsibility of the next generation of young people? Mr. Guangxia replied that now they have also felt the importance of this issue. Therefore, university education in Europe and the United States has begun to pay attention to the cultivation of leaders at the same time, and it has been extended from students' conduct and personality education to society. What is particularly gratifying is that the lost generation has turned around. Not only are the so-called anti-traditional and anti-realistic behaviors such as hippie and streaking no longer a sign of fashion, but also the behavior of making troubles has almost disappeared, and generally they can be quiet. Even the West German students who made the most noise in the past years have calmed down. This is partly due to spontaneous awareness, and partly due to social checks and balances, because all young people who misbehaved leave school , is not popular everywhere in the society, no matter how good a talent is, it is difficult to develop, but this is not deliberately resisted by the society, but because they dare not accept and reuse them for fear of causing trouble.

It can be seen from this that young people's moral advancement and academic study in school must not be neglected, both at home and abroad.In the examination of personnel and appointment materials in Western society, even the spouse must be listed as an important record, not to mention the conduct and morals in school! University education is a re-upgrade for young people with mature minds. It is not only necessary to be able to be used by the society, but also to be able to cultivate future leaders for the society. As for international politicians with far-sightedness and great talent, although it is not overnight. It is an indisputable argument that it is necessary to lay the foundation for its behavioral thinking and personality education. Now Western university education has already felt the need in this regard. I hope that in the coming years, there will be enough talents who can change the world.
