《美國:我們的故事》是在我們的選修課上看完的,感觸頗深。就讓我來談談我的看法。
首先,美國各地的慶祝活動,不是官方為了宣傳國家強大、執政黨偉大光榮正確而組織的,而主要是由民間團體或私人公司舉辦的。像紐約每年的國慶焰火,都是由梅西百貨公司舉辦的。焰火相當絢麗多彩,據說要幾百萬美元。而首都華盛頓的焰火,以及各地的慶祝游行活動等等,幾乎都是私人團體舉辦的。而不像極權國家那樣,從來都是傾國家之力,做政府一手操縱的宣傳。
美國國慶紀念活動的第二個特色是,它雖然是紀念國家的建立,但主要是贊美這個國家保障了每個人的自由,給個人提供了發展的機會,也就是這個國家剛剛建立時發表的《獨立宣言》所確立的那些原則。美國人不說國慶日,而是把七月四日稱為“獨立日”,不僅是紀念美國當年從英國統治下爭取到獨立,建立了一個新的國家,更是傳遞《獨立宣言》所確立的美國立國精神。這個精神,就是強調人的權利。《獨立宣言》譯成中文才二千三百字,其中最重要的內容,是強調人有自由的權利、生命的權利和追求幸福的權利。這三大權利,都是指個人,而不是指國家或政府。而政府的存在,都是為了保護個人的這三大權利,如果違背了這個原則,人民就有權推翻這個政權。
今天這個只有短短二百多年歷史的國家,所以成為世界上唯一的超強,并不是因為它的幅員,人口和資源豐富,而是《獨立宣言》所確定的這種保護個人的精神。縱觀美國文化、歷史和政治,有一個英文詞被最多地強調,那就是Individualism,中文把它譯成“個人主義”并不妥,因為它容易和中文里貶意的自私自利的“個人主義”連在一起,根本就背離Individualism的本意;因此把它譯成“個體主義”比較準確。保護“個體主義”,可以說是美國的立國之本。因為無論法西斯主義,GC主義,還是形形色色色的集權主義,從本質上說,都是“集體主義”的變種,最后都是以“群體的名義”奴役個人,剝奪自由。而個體主義,正是對抗集體主義,對抗集權的最主要武器,也是人之所以能有自由、尊嚴的保障。
整個一部美國的歷史,其實就是高揚個體主義,追求個人自由,對抗集體主義和極權的歷史。美國所以成為自由世界的領袖,正是因為高舉了個人自由的偉大旗幟。例如連寫信這種小事,美國人都是先寫人名(凸顯個人的重要),然后是城市,最后才是國家。中國則是:先國家,再地方,最后才是個人;國家、集體永遠高于個人。而美國人,即使姓名,也是把自己的名字排在前面,父姓在后,而不是中文人名的父姓在先(父權、家族社會的表現之一)。這也是強調,你自己的名字是獨有的,最個人化的,你這個“個體”才是最重要的。這些都體現美國人對“個體主義”價值的推崇。
在美國國慶節前夕,俄亥俄州阿什蘭德大學政治學教授、匈牙利移民施拉姆寫了篇文章,題目是“選擇做美國人”。他說,五十年前,他還不到十歲,隨父親逃離匈牙利。當他聽到要逃往美國時,問父親“為什么是美國?”他父親說,“因為,兒子啊,我們是美國人,但生錯了地方。”
施拉姆說,他用了過去大部份的時間琢磨這句話的含意,最后更清晰了,“我父親用他的方式,說明他向往的美國不僅是個地方,更是一種價值。”施拉姆認為,“做一個美國公民跟當其他國家的公民不同,我們美國人不以血緣或歷史當作成為公民的連接;相反,把我們連在一起的是一個共同認同的原則。這種認同——正如林肯在提到《獨立宣言》時所指的‘電纜’——將我們跟簽署宣言的先賢們像‘血中血,肉中肉’般地緊密連結在一起。”
從這個意義上說,“美國人”這個定義,已超越了具體是哪國國民的界限,它代表著對自由、生命和追求幸福這三大個人權利的信奉和堅持,代表“自由人”!
第三篇:美國我們的故事觀后感
《美國我們的故事》觀后感
美國,一直是人們心中自由,民主的象征。現在的美國是集經濟,科技,文化為一體的超級大國。不可否認,無論是當時等待崛起的,還是現在屹立在世界中心美國,都是一個值得我們發掘寶藏和汲取經驗的源泉。
在課堂上我們欣賞課影片America, the story of us。這部紀錄片用了十二集的時間以精致的畫面,詳實的史實,平民的視角以及當代美國各界的精英對于本民族的認識給我們展現了一個堅韌不拔,富于冒險,勇于探索,敢于創新,追求自由的美利堅民族。這是一部關于美國歷史的發展史,前兩集主要描繪了美國的獨立戰爭。欣賞完影片后,我對美國的獨立戰爭有了進一步的認識。
美國的獨立戰爭是世界開始認識美國的開端。美國獨立戰爭是世界史上第一次大規模的殖民地爭取民族獨立的戰爭,它的勝利,給大英帝國的殖民體系打開了一個缺口,為殖民地民族解放戰爭樹立了范例。獨立戰爭又是一次資產階級革命,它推翻了英國的殖民統治,創造了美利堅合眾國,同時又鏟除了殖民時期封建殘余的長子繼承法、續嗣限定法和代役稅,契約奴制也基本上廢除。從而解放了生產力,為美國資本主義的發展開辟了寬廣的道路。
我們都知道,美國是一個大熔爐式的國家。美國大陸聚集了來自全國各地的民族。當然,這也是有歷史淵源的。17世紀初期,英國人開始在北美大西洋沿岸建立殖民地.一百多年后英國在北美的殖民地已有13個。這些殖民地的居民除英國移民和土著居民印第安人外,還有來自歐洲其他國家的人以及非洲來的黑人奴隸.每個殖民地都由英國派來的總督統治。這時的殖民地已經開發了大量的種植園,建立了紡織、煉鐵、采礦等多種工業,經濟比較繁榮。
美國大陸上的經濟迅速發展,但英國卻牢牢的掌握著控制權,這阻礙了美國的自由發展。英國政府于1773年頒布《茶稅法》企圖壟斷北美的茶葉生意,他們給予東印度公司在北美傾銷茶葉的專賣權。此舉激起了殖民地人民的強烈反對。于是在1773年12月16日引發了波士頓傾茶事件。1775年4月19日清晨,波士頓人民在萊克星頓上空打響了獨立戰爭的第一槍,萊克星頓的槍聲拉開了美國獨立戰爭的序幕。1777年10月,美軍在薩拉托加大敗英軍,從而扭轉了整個獨立戰爭的局面。1781年10月,英軍在約克鎮向華盛頓投降。美國在法國的支持下,取得了獨立戰爭的最后的勝利。
談到獨立戰爭,不得不提起華盛頓在戰爭中起的巨大作用和他那無人能企及的領導能力。他自己出錢提供軍資,雇傭有名的軍官訓練由一群農民組成的軍隊。他以非凡的才干,把原來自由、散漫,缺乏組織紀律和統一指揮的美軍組織起來,在戰斗中鍛煉成長,逐步建立了一支強大的正規軍。他鼓勵美軍士兵,號召他們為自由而戰,他努力將各州團結、聯系起來,共同作戰。包括建立了美利堅合眾國之后,華盛頓拒絕王位,主持制憲,建立聯邦制政治,開創元首連任不得超過兩屆的制度,維護國家民主政治,為美國的建立和國家的民主建設作出了卓越的貢獻,無愧于“國父” 的稱號。
美國的歷史,可謂是一部經濟奇跡和政治奇跡的歷史;之所以能發生這樣的奇跡,是因為美國把兩套思想觀念付諸實踐。“第一套思想觀念體現在《國富論》這部偉大著作中,每個人受一只看不見的手的指導,在追求自己利益的同時,促進了社會的利益。“第二套思想觀念體現在《獨立宣言》中,人人生而平等,造物主賦予他們若干不可剝奪的權利,其中包括生命權、自由權和追求幸福的權利。”
可以說,美國兩百年來的歷史,都是圍繞這兩套觀念而展開,是努力將這些
原則和理念付諸實踐的歷史。經濟自由和政治自由結合在一起,使美國走上了一條崛起之路。
從第一批歐洲移民的那段非人的歲月,到反抗英國的殖民壓迫,再到追求財富與夢想的西進運動,美國人以一種勢不可擋的的勇氣使得夢想終于變成現實,一步步走得踏實而穩健。在不斷地征服自然或者非自然的阻力之后,美國在這些富有冒險精神的子民的努力下顯現出了他現在的模樣。
片中美國人的戰爭觀給我的映像也很特別,他們對世界第一強國時的那種淡定從容,堅韌無畏。面對與南方的制度對抗的時候的那種為維護自由理想而義無反顧的責任感以及二戰中舉國一致,同仇敵愾,慷慨赴死的大無畏精神。片中的民眾幾乎和政府從來沒有過什么沖突,政府一直在維護民眾的利益而民眾也一直在支持著政府,直到那場為純意識形態而爆發的越戰開始后,美國的新一代則顯示出美國精神中追求真理,堅持信仰的一面。再加上那始終貫穿本片在戰爭中對非裔美國人不斷地的肯定與贊揚,使我對這個民族有了更深刻的印象。
就是這樣的一個國家和人們,不斷需要義無反顧地征服新的大陸。無論是美洲,是西進運動,還是鋼鐵的生產,石油的勘探,還是鐵路的建設,又或是洲際公路的建設,抑或是網絡世界的開創!不斷需要正面矛盾,掙扎反抗。無論是殖民,是黑奴,還是內戰,還是世界大戰,還是貧富,又或是犯罪,種族歧視,抑或是恐怖組織!他們強勢,白手起家,不懼自然;他們來自移民,不留戀故土也不留戀擁有;他們樂觀而又具有不可摧毀的信念,他們習慣在逆境中開墾荒地。這樣的特質不是所有美國人,而是推進美國發展的美國人,也是美國這樣一個國家一直奉行和尊重的內在意志!

第五篇:《信仰——我們的故事》觀后感
觀《信仰——我們的故事》有感
比財富寶貴的是生命,比生命更有份量的是信仰。
人活著必須思考一個問題:為什么而活,怎樣活?這是一個開放的命題,答案自然也是多元化的。有的人希望出人頭地、功成名就;有的人希望報效國家、回贈社會;有的人說一輩子簡單、幸福、平安即可。不管人們的選擇如何,這都是他們心中美好的愿望,并最終內化為終生的信仰,成為激勵他們前進的動力。
我有信仰嗎?在我的觀念中信仰就是理想,依此說來我是有信仰的。小時候夢想成為一名教師,于是在成長的十字路口上始終堅定選擇,并為之奮斗,現在我已日趨接近夢想。但離“夢想”越近的時候,我并沒有體會到太多的快樂,我的生命依舊缺少了什么,靈魂常常麻木,空虛,甚至覺得自己像一具行尸走肉。朋友訕笑我的憂郁,說:你該喝點心靈雞湯了,滋潤一下枯竭的靈魂吧!所幸,這一場“春雨”來得并不晚,在黨校培訓期間,我們觀看了一部紀錄片《信仰——我們的故事》。這不是影視劇,沒有那么理想的人物和環境設定,但它卻超越影視劇,讓我們看到了更為平凡的堅持,更為真實的信仰,更為動人的力量。影片中,我看到了澎湃、劉胡蘭、方志敏、郭德賢等在戰爭年代犧牲小我、成就大我的革命先烈們,面對敵人的嚴刑峻法,威逼利誘,他們毫不畏懼,毅然選擇用生命守護自己的共產主義信仰,最終他們成為民族的英雄為人民所銘記。在和平年代,早已沒有了當時的戰火硝煙,可是這一首信仰之歌卻愈加高亢,錢學森、焦裕祿、王進喜、吳仁寶、吳孟超、楊善洲、沈浩、郭明義等這些為了建設共產主義事業的共產黨員們,在自己的崗位上兢兢業業,并懷揣著一個簡單而堅定地信念:為黨的事業奉獻終身。選擇信仰很艱難,但堅守信仰更難。面對艱苦的環境,也許咬牙堅持就過了;但作為一個人,面對父母的恩情,伴侶的愛情,子女的親情,這些人世間最美好、最溫暖的感情,這些本該照顧好、保護好的家人,他們為了民族事業,為了社會進步,為了更多的人可以得到幸福,只能將個人感情小心地珍藏于自己的心底。他們用平凡的堅持,走出了最可貴的奉獻之路,譜寫了最動聽的信仰之歌。觀影過程中,我止不住的流淚,不僅是因為感動,更多的是對生命的感慨,對價值與信仰的重新思考。選擇信仰不難,基于心中最渴望,最熾熱的理想信念即可,但堅守信念很難,變數太多、困難太多、顧慮太多,在追求信仰的道路上始終不會順利,始終充滿坎坷。不過還好,寶劍鋒從磨礪出,梅花香自苦寒來!有了這些犧牲,更顯民族之氣節;有了這些磨難,更顯生命之可貴;有了這些堅持,更顯信仰之力量。
很多人批評今天的中國人沒有信仰。也許是,由于時代的壓力、生存的競爭,人們看重金錢,追求名利,多了財富,缺了信仰。但又仿佛不是,一個再麻木的人,也會因為奉獻事跡備受觸動;一個再貧困的人,也會為了幫助同胞解囊相助;一個再功利的人,也會為了民族情義抵制外貨;一個再弱小平凡的人,也會為了回贈社會奉獻一生。我們不是沒有信仰,我們只是將它雪藏,當祖國需要、當民族需要、當人民需要、當社會需要,被埋藏的信仰依然會破除堅冰,為我們照耀道路,指引前行。無論是過去還是現在,無論是現在還是將來,信仰都存在。中國共產黨揚起的偉大旗幟,堅持的偉大事業為歷史和人民所選擇,咱們的黨在夾縫中生存,在風雨中前行,在前行中成長,在成長中進步,這與每一位黨員對共產黨偉大旗幟的捍衛,對共產主義的信仰,對黨的事業的奉獻是分不開的。堅持信仰,或許會很苦,要承受很多磨難,但失去信仰,人就失去了生命的意義。我熱愛生命,珍惜生命,不愿意成為一具活著的尸體,所以信仰成為我一生中最寶貴的東西。我愿意堅守黨的偉大旗幟,繼承黨的偉大事業,在黨的帶領下,不怕平凡,不怕勞累、不怕艱苦,在自己的崗位上為社會主義事業的奉獻一生。
