和而不同(hé’érbùtónɡ)

在尊重事物差異性和多樣性的基礎(chǔ)上實(shí)現(xiàn)整體的和諧共存。“同”與“和”是對待、安頓社會群體的兩種態(tài)度。“同”指對事物差異性的抹殺，“和”則意味著對事物差異性的保存與尊重。不同的事物彼此間相互輔助、補(bǔ)充，才能組成一個(gè)充滿生機(jī)、富于創(chuàng)造性的和諧整體。

Harmony But Not Uniformity

The term means achieving overall harmonious co-existence on the basis of respecting differences and diversity. Uniformity and harmony are two different attitudes to treating and accommodating social groups. Uniformity means obliterating differences in everything while harmony is to keep and respect the differences. Allowing different things to complement and supplement each other will create a harmonious whole full of vitality and creativity.

夫和實(shí)生物，同則不繼。(《國語•鄭語》)

君子和而不同，小人同而不和。(《論語•子路》)

Harmony begets new things; while uniformity does not lead to continuation. (Discourses on Governance of the States)

A man of virtue pursues harmony but does not seek uniformity; a petty man seeks uniformity but does not pursue harmony. (The Analects)
