ABSTRACT

The modernization of traditional culture, in light of globalization and technological changes, stands as an inevitable proposition in modern times. This paper tries to look at, from different fields of study, the paradox of values and the risks of culture when facing modernization. It offers a method of balancing these issues in a dynamic way. Social change, the break in understanding across generations, and the competition from the global stage are all things that can't be avoided in the evolution process. At the same time, the loss of cultural authenticity, the alienation of goods, and the identity crisis show just how much modernity is eroding traditional culture. The paper suggests that through mechanisms like gradient protection, an ethical framework, and a pattern of collaboration involving many parties, there can be a way to keep traditions and modernity interacting with each other. The "cultural gene threshold model" and "three-axis review mechanism" are introduced in a way that helps bring new ideas with a blend of practical value and theoretical depth. These may provide a different direction for cultural governance in the future.
