The theory of cultural patterns in intercultural communication is used to study the change of Chinese students＇ living pattern, communication pattern and thinking pattern because of globalization.

In the context of globalization, conscious choice and construction of cultural patterns are of great necessity. Choice is related to comparison and involves evaluation comparisons of nature and function and recognition comparisons of content and structure regarding cultural patterns. This paper holds that cultural values can be established based on the foundations of basic cultural value functions, namely if they satisfy people's need for transcendence and enhancement, appreciation of the beauty, social survival and progress. Also, different situations should be combined with specific existence situations within a specific culture. Accordingly, life-vitality orientation should be regarded as a criterion in cultural evaluation and choice.展开更多

In this regard, philosophy of culture aims at a general understanding of man through cultural symbols which in themselves are not the end of the research. Using the research methodology of historical science, philosophy of culture attempts to understand man as a non-continuous and heterogeneous being. The theoretical objective of philosophy of culture is the criticism and reconstruction of cultural patterns with cultural symbols at their core.展开更多
