文质彬彬·每日好词语｜协和万邦

　　协和万邦

　　古代有贤德的君主通过实行仁政，将天下诸侯都聚集在自己周围，以实现不同部族、不同国家、不同民族的融合和文化上的涵化，形成和谐统一的部落联盟或多民族国家。这一思想是中国文化整体和谐观的重要表现，是中华民族文化精神的核心观念。

　　Coexistence of All in Harmony

　　The term refers to the exercise of benevolent government by virtuous and wise rulers in ancient China to win the allegiance of all the vassals, so as to achieve an integration and acculturation of different tribes, nations or ethnic groups and create a harmonious and unified alliance of tribes or a multi-ethnic state. Harmonious coexistence of all is a key feature of the concept of social harmony in Chinese culture and one of the core values of the Chinese nation.

　　引例

　　克明俊德，以亲九族。九族既睦，平（pián）章百姓。百姓昭明，协和万邦，黎民于变时雍。（《尚书·尧典》）（［帝尧］能够彰显崇高的德行，才能使自己的氏族亲善。氏族和睦以后，可辨明部落百官族姓的职责操守。百官族姓的善恶德行明晰之后，大大小小的诸侯国才能和谐共融，普通民众之间的关系也才能日益和睦。）

　　Emperor Yao was able to promote moral values, so that amity prevailed in his clan. He then clarified the hierarchical order of tribal officials. Only when this was done could all vassal states, big and small, prosper in harmony, and the people become friendly with each other. (The Book of History)
