1、Chinese Dream vs. American Dream,“To realize a healthy society, to build a rich democratic culture and peaceful society is a goal the country struggles to achieve. The Chinese peoples biggest hope is to realize national wealth, social development, and happiness.” President Xi at the close of the 20t

2、h Peoples Congress,“Let all of our classes rise up, become more prosperous and happier in living the American dream. This is our purpose now, to make our biggest contribution to the worlds ideas and well-being.” James Truslow Adams, The Epic of America,Differences and Causes,The Chinese dream is abo

3、ut national prosperity. The goal of the Chinese dream is national rejuvenation. The Chinese dream must be realized by the Chinese people.,The America dream is about individual prosperity.The goal of the American dream is individual achievement.The American dream can only be realized using the human

4、resources of other countries.,Differences and Causes,The American dream is about individual freedom and happiness.The American dream relies solely on experience.The American dream relies on individualism.The American dream is for the individuals glory.,The Chinese dream is about group harmony and ha

5、ppiness. The Chinese dream has a long history behind it. The Chinese dream combines everyones wisdom and effort. The Chinese dream is about the peoples glory.,The Chinese dream is about national prosperity.The America dream is about individual prosperity.,Compared to China, America has a huge geogra

6、phic advantage. Surrounded by water on three sides, the US is easy to defend and hard to attack. A tyrant since the beginning of its history, the US has never been subjugated by another nation. Instead, the US frequently seizes the natural resources of other states. As such, they have never worried

7、about their countrys safety. People are free to concentrate on their dreams for wealth.Since ancient times, however, Chinas borders have always been in peril. Historical lessons have taught us that a countrys strength resides in its peoples ability to live and work in a peaceful environment. Therefo

8、re, the Chinese dream must, first and foremost, prioritize national strength.,1,The goal of the Chinese dream is national rejuvenation.The goal of the American dream is individual achievement.,China is made of people from the Han ethnicity and multiple other minority groups. Together, these people m

9、ake up the Chinese nation. Since ancient times, Chinese people were born and raised here, shared adversities together, have had inseparable ties, and thus have very deep feelings for this land. Americas ethnic makeup is more complicated. Black people have been discriminated against for a long time,

10、and although the law treats them equally now, a small incident can cause a racial conflict. America is a multi-ethnic country, without the concept of a motherland, so they can only speak about individual achievements.,2,The Chinese dream must be realized by the Chinese people.The American dream can

11、only be realized using the human resources of other countries.,The American dream emphasizes that no matter where you were born or what your social status is, everyone can rely on their own ability to seize opportunities for success. For many people from small European countries, these precepts were

12、 very attractive and encouraged them to take the risk of going to America. China, on the other hand, has 1.3 billion people and cannot rely on bringing in outsiders to develop itself. Thats why President Xi stated, “the Chinese dream requires walking down the Chinese path,” “the Chinese dream requir

13、es using Chinese energy,”,3,The Chinese dream is about group harmony and happiness.The American dream is about individual freedom and happiness.,Chinese people have had a “family” ideology since ancient times. So, happiness for the Chinese people is a group concept. Within one family, happiness is s

14、hared among all its members. Therefore, General Secretary Xi Jinping used three “sharings” to describe the vision of the Chinese dream: “sharing the opportunity to have a colorful life, sharing the opportunity to make dreams a reality, sharing the opportunity of the same motherland in the same age t

15、o grow and progress together.”In contrast, Western European and American cultures emphasize individualism, the pursuit of personal freedom and happiness.,4,The Chinese dream has a long history behind it. The American dream relies solely on experience.,A considerable part of Chinas self-confidence in

16、 achieving its dream comes from history. The Chinese nation has 5,000 years of civilization. It has prospered numerous times throughout history and was once the richest and most powerful country in the world. General Secretary Xi Jinpings use of the word “rejuvenation” in his phrase “the Chinese dre

17、am to achieve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation” reveals optimism and confidence. In contrast, America only has two or three hundred years of history. From its founding, the U.S. has depended upon the exploitation of other countries resources and talents to gradually become a superpower.

18、Its dream is to extend this reality, to prevent any challenges to its power, so that it may always dream its dream.,5,The Chinese dream combines everyones wisdom and effort.The American dream relies on individualism.,To realize the Chinese dream, everyones power must be condensed, each person adding

19、 strength and steadfast diligence; every persons intelligence and wisdom must be utilized, striving toward one direction. Realizing the Chinese dream depends on collective consciousness, collective power and collective wisdom. To achieve the dream now, consciousness must be unified, one target must

20、be clarified. America, however, has followed a pragmatic path since its founding: to simply pursue individual prosperity and happiness, so that the combination of individual successes constitutes the strength of the nation. Chinese people can do great things, but first they must unify their thinking

21、.,6,The Chinese dream is about the peoples glory.The American dream is for the individuals glory.,Since the Opium Wars, territory has been seized, people have been ravaged, lives have been destroyed, poverty has been pushed to intolerable limits, treaties have forced humiliating terms and catastroph

22、es have struck time and again these are the nations wounds. In recent history, how many idealists have shed blood for national dignity and security so that the people might live in peace and work contentedly? A country without such a history of pain will have difficulty understanding the thirst of the Chinese people. America simply does not have this kind of pain, so it cannot have this kind of dream. Thus, the American dream emphasizes individual prosperity, success and social advancement.,7,Thank you for listening,
