Tradition and Modernization Can Be Compatible

There is much debate over whether tradition and modernization are compatible. Some people maintain that they necessarily conflict with each other, while others argue that it is possible to combine tradition and modernization in our pursuit of development. As far as I am concerned, these two forces undermine each other at times, but they can also compliment each other, if handled properly.

Most people take it for granted that modernization and tradition are contradictory, which is true in a sense. Modernization, a popular yet a vague term, is generally understood as "Westernization," which means individualist, rights-based democracy, capitalism, and technological imperatives. Meanwhile, tradition comprises the whole complex of distinctive spiritual, material, intellectual and emotional features that characterize a specific society or a social group. It includes not only the arts and letters, but also modes of life, the value systems and beliefs of the indigenous people. In this sense, it is only natural that modernization, as a foreign culture forced upon non-Western cultures, tends to cause damage to the tradition and arouse confrontation from the native people involved in this destructive and painful process. Where modernization marches on, we often see traditional customs disappearing, traditional value systems collapsing, traditional craftsmanship withering, and traditional ways of life disintegrating. As a result, modernization has not brought about prosperity and happiness at it promises to traditional societies. On the contrary, we are alarmed at the deterioration of the cities and disintegration of society—overcrowding; slum formation; breakdown of culture, community, and family; isolation of social and age groups, etc. —as well as the environmental destruction—water and air pollution; noise; destruction of wildlife, vegetation and land, etc.

However, if we understand modernization as sustainable development, we must believe in the necessity and possibility of synthesizing modernization and tradition. Development can only flourish where it is rooted in the culture and the tradition of each country, since it is an all-encompassing process linked to each society's own values and calling for an active participation of individuals and groups who are both the authors and the beneficiaries of it. The success of Japan and the South-East Asian "dragons," is a case in point. While espousing the free enterprise system of the western development model, these traditional societies dosed it with more than a little government control, a form of paternalism alien to the West but totally in keeping with their own traditions. In the same vein, China is confidently pushing forward its development by synthesizing modernization and tradition.

To conclude, it seems unavoidable that some traditional cultural elements will be lost in the process of modernization. Yet any external experience, technique or model cannot be successfully integrated by mere adopting or reproduction; it needs to be reinterpreted or reinvented in such a way that it can be absorbed through the filter of the society's cultural identity and value system. In other words, any traditional society, if it aims at sustainable development, should endeavor to maintain a mutually enriching relationship between the external modernization and the internal tradition.

某年 2 月 17 日 15 时许, H 省 W县某建筑公司承建的某发电厂一期工程3#机组冷却塔施工现场发生一起高处作业坠落事故,造成7 人死亡。 事故发生过程: 某发电厂一期工程项目经S 省发展计划委员会批准建设。由S 省某电力建设公司中标建设,其3#机组冷却塔工程分包给H省 W县某建筑公司承建,s 省某工程监理公司进行工程监理。由于不具备冬季施工条件,该工程已停止作业,停止作业时间为事发前一年10 月 15 日至事发当年3 月 1 日。 2 月 16 日下午 16 时, H 省 W县某建筑公司分包承建的发电厂一期工程3#机组冷却塔施工项目执行经理在未得到总包许可的前提下,带领所属施工人员来到工地。17 时.组织所属施工人员进行体检、照相,准备办理“安全上岗证”,进行3#冷却塔井架吊桥平台拆除作业前的准备。 2 月 17 日上午, H 省 W县某建筑公司现场负责人安排施工班长组织拆除作业前的技术交底工作。当日下午13 时许,班长王某在施工现场组织了班前会,交待了施工操作规程后,带领11 名工人沿井架爬梯步道上到井架吊桥平台,进行平台下降作业。建设工程教育网信息 冷却塔吊桥平台是冷却塔施工的高空运料平台,由前桥、后桥两部分组成,连接方式为伸缩式,其中前桥共分为四节,根据施工需要可以伸缩。整个吊桥平台靠11 个倒链拉结在竖井架上,吊桥降落施工时,受力的手拉倒链应同时匀速降落,且受力倒链与备用倒链依次倒换。15 时许,吊桥平台下降1m后(总高度为 46.25m )。根据下降距离,需要调整倒链。 此时在可伸缩的前桥平台左端的操作工张某在没有使挂设的备用倒链受力的情况下,就将受力倒链解掉,使平台前桥前端两侧倒链受力不均,造成前桥平台失去平衡。按操作规程要求,吊桥平台拆除前应先将前桥收缩起来,由前向后逐步收缩,最后用倒链封死,然后将平台降至底部。 此次作业前,四节吊桥只收缩两节半,还留一节半在外,未全部收缩进来。在班长的指挥下又有4 人赶到前桥左端,在没采取任何防护措施的情况下去拉升倒链,造成倾斜加剧,前桥自重和动荷载及相应的力将作为滑道用的首桥槽钢下翼冲击变形,前桥掉出轨道,班长王某等7 人从高处坠落,当场死亡5 人,重伤 2 人。 施工现场地面人员发现情况后,紧急呼叫120,与该单位车辆一起立即将坠落人员送至市人民医院抢救,至当日 16 时 40 分,重伤 2 人经抢救无效先后死亡。这起事故的经济赔偿为平均每位死者16.5 万元,重伤 2 人的抢救费用为3.6 万元,事故造成停工经济损失为80 万元。 问题: 1.这起事故掼失多少工作日?直接经济损失是多少万元? 2. 请从技术、管理等方面分新该事故发生的原因? 3.为避免此类事故发生,应采取哪些措施?
