百余位文、史、哲及翻译领域专家合作，解读中华民族精神基因。
内容简介
本书是教育部重点项目"中华思想文化术语传播工程"成果之一。所选的"思想文化关键词"，是指由中华民族主体所创造或构建，凝聚、浓缩了中华哲学思想、人文精神、思维方式、价值观念，以词或短语形式固化的概念和文化关键词。
此前这些关键词主要以辞典、词表为载体。像专科辞典中一般仅使用简单的语言对词条进行解释，更多是对词条出处的说明，缺少通俗有效的传播内容。而语文类辞典的解释则聚焦在单字或词语的字面含义上，对其思想文化内涵没有深入的说明。
翻译和传播方面，思想文化类术语的翻译主要分布在各类双语辞典和外译的典籍作品中，不同译者对术语的内涵理解差异很大，译法上缺乏权威性。总之，对思想文化类关键词的已有研究和整理工作目前都是零散的存在，并未形成具有系统性和代表性的成果。"中华思想文化术语传播工程"的宗旨即为整理这样的关键词，并给予准确的阐释和翻译。
书里面所收入的365个关键词是以普及为目的，从"中华思想文化术语传播工程"一期成果里精选出来的。核心性和常见性，是遴选的标准。这样易于读者由浅入深地理解工程，有助于以此为抓手，准确地传播好中国声音、讲好中国故事。
