Ganyang's cultural consciousness formed through debating on the Chinese culture in 1980's have subjective consciousness of creating-culture and reflective potential for criticizing modernity. This is deferent from the thought of another intellectual who discussed the cultural problem with him in 1980s, because they only focused on the role of tradition in the progress of the China's modernistic reformation. And in their thought, culture is regarded as a thought or lifestyle that having fixed form of in the specific age. So they could only debate on the culture of the past is helpful for the present or not. But the concept of tradition in Ganyang' thought is the thing that constantly constructed and reformed by the creator of culture, therefore tradition in not fixed one of the past. Ganyang's cultural consciousness was influenced by Hans-Georg Gadamer‘s analytics and European-philosophies in 20century. Through studying those theories, Ganyang have an idea that "Culture" is an the core concept for criticizing and reflecting on the problem of modernity. Because of this, from mid-1990s until now Ganyang's cultural-consciousness became an internal energy to criticize the problem of the China's contemporary reformation. And standing on the basis of this thought Ganyang express that he hope the China's contemporary reformation will be advantageous to multiple masses.
