經典文化滲透著歷代文化精英的思想精華，久而久之沈澱成某種意識形態並逐漸形成一統天下的局面，甚至發展到不允許不同的聲音發言的程度；這種精英控制的等級陰謀不但損害了普通大眾創造文化的積極性，更有可能扼殺人類精神生活的多樣性。20世紀後期，隨著文化範式的大幅調整，出現了現代人的媒體化生活和消費性藝術，它們對傳統的文化等級秩序和深度追求構成巨大消解。全球化語境中的當代中國社會空前複雜地交織了多元文化因素，經典文化的失寵與對經典觀念的顛覆和消解成為潮流；但是，肯定物質欲求的合理性與個體選擇的多樣性並不意味著放棄整個社會共同追求的理想，因此，樹立以現代社會理性為基礎、以科學民主為內涵的人文精神正是新世紀中國文化建設的首要課題。

Culture provide the very spaces for human understanding, interaction and social practice. Culture is the source of domination. Now it is a big trend of the advanced cultural development that culture becomes the consumer goods. Cultural phenomena, such as popular culture, aesthetic in daily life, are becoming the mainstream of the social culture facing the culture situation. It is an urgent issue for the traditional culture and aesthetics to put forward prompt solution. In the course of the industraliation and commercialization of culture production, the culture shows the trend of perceptual enjoyment. The aim is to create the cultural forms to entertain the mass instead of providing rational introspection of the world, and capture large audience to earn profits. Through a cultural self-examination of the humanities and the history of aesthetics, modern aesthetics will definitely regain its academic vitality.
