Apparently, as China's center of politics and culture, Beijing has more advantages than Shanghai; despite being China's most-commercialised metropolis, Shanghai suffers from the homogeneity of value due to its over-anxiousness to become more internationalised. Beijing, on the other hand, keeps its extremely strong force of traditions and multiple value standards in the process of globalisation. The city of Beijing hosts the country's Central Government and represents China's sovereignty. Compared to the once-colonised Shanghai, it still has much conviction of preserving local culture after the 'right of passage' brought forth by the advanced design and technologies of the 2008 Olympics.

显然，作为中国政治文化中心的北京比商业大都会上海更具竞争优势：上海虽然商业化程度较高，但由于过于热衷西化而导致价值标准偏于单一，而北京则在融入全球化的同时仍然葆有极为强大的传统力量，价值标准更为多元；北京是中央政府所在地，是中国国家主权的象征城市，比起曾经的殖民城市上海而言，它在经历奥运会所带来的世界先进设计理念和技术的洗礼后，仍有较多本土文化的坚守。

我们既要批判、抵制西方敌对势力的&西化&、&分化&图谋，又要大胆学习、借鉴西方政治文化中的合理因素，为建设和发展有中国特色的社会主义政治文化服务。

The Meiji era (1868-1912) had witnessed a wide-ranging programme of modernisation and westernisation: foreign technology, including cinema, was introduced and foreign ideologies infiltrated the consciousness of thinkers.

His argument that modernisation does not necessarily entail Westernisation also looks prescient: why should the Chinese embrace the American economic model when it seems to produce such economic havoc?

而其&现代化&不必牵涉&西化&的观点也颇具远见：既然美国经济模式可能导致这样一场经济浩劫，中国人又为何非得走美国的老路呢？
