The concern of nationalism is nation-state. But in the historical stages of development of nationalism, the nationalism in the early nation-state times is greatly different from that in the current globalization age, which is characterized by leaping the boundary of nation-state. With the combination between nationalism and the cultural and social environment in various regions, there are a great different between the nationalism consciousness in current China and nationalism in other regions.The paper makes an analysis of the history of our nationalism and points out the essential difference in nationalism between Eastern and Western. It claims that the nationalism developed in the European frame has been a kind of nationalism with a loss of its original political pursuit. Nationalism in East Asia, however, combined with the historical, social and cultural environments in recent Asia, has created the anti-ulcer and conservative nationalism. It protects the political and cultural specialties of all nation-states in East Asia, and offers political rationality for all East Asian counties. However China's nationalism at present still meets the challenges to identity consciousnessfrom super-nations and sub-nations. The development of our nationalism consciousness is possibly away from its track if the problems in it cannot be envisaged and the irrational nationalism consciousness should produce negative effects on our country, which greatly depends on the state sovereignty owing to the specific historical and cultural environment. But whether the open, mild and rational nationalism consciousness can be formed affects our political modernity, and determines the fate and future of our country, which is a multi-national state in the globalization age. The first part discusses the new connotations of nationalism in the globalization background nationalism is the shared history, culture, idea, political attitude and regional consciousness. It analyzes the historical form of the development of China's nationalism and connotation and characteristics of China's neo-nationalism consciousness. The second part shows the construction environment of and existing problems in our nationalism consciousness at present, and reexamines in a level analytic approach the problems in the development of our nationalism consciousness from aspects of super-nation, nation and sub-nation. The third part analyzed the relationship between nationalism and China's political modernity in the choice model of our nationalism consciousness integration. It suggests that the development orientation of nationalism will influence the future and fate of our country. The last part points out the choice approach to China's nationalism consciousness in the specific historical and cultural backgroundof our country.It makes a conclusion that the globalization development not only puts forward the challenge to our historical tradition and stable features, but also doubts our shared value concepts. Nationalism consciousness. The traditional culture with a central concept of "Great Harmony"will certainly infuse vital force into the peaceful coexistence of China's interior and other nation in the world. The china's historical and cultural environment offers a different choice from other regions in the world for our nationalism consciousness. It not only emphasizes the importance role of sovereign in the international relations, but also is a kind of consciousness of the 'harmonious'development of domestic and international societies.
