01 redefining intellectuals
The intellectual name is stigmatizing
First, we must reclaim the names and clear names of the stigmatized public intellectuals. Failure to change the title would make society irrational. Second, strictly speaking, china's true public intellectuals are the best. The current definition of intellectuals is clearly out of place。
Intellectuals, intellectuals and public intellectuals
In recent days, videos on the definition of intellectuals have frequently been painted in social media, with varied and thought-provoking views. In order to explore this issue more clearly, we need first to identify several key concepts: the intellectual class, intellectuals and public intellectuals。
In order to clarify these concepts, we have introduced the concept of the “knowledge class” to replace the traditional definition of “intellectuals”. This concept will be based on the level of education and will be based on education rather than on occupation, job titles, etc。
02 identity of intellectuals
Intellectuals: the intersection of occupation and ideology
In the view of the temperature army, intellectuals today tend to be professional rather than purely ideological. He noted that a truly intellectual class is not visible in our society. Modern intellectuals are more professional than intellectual, and even when a person has a doctoral or professor's title, he cannot be called intellectual if he lacks the capacity to be conscientiously critical of society。
Definition of intellectuals: social responsibility and choice beyond expert status
According to professor dai jinhua, the identity of intellectuals does not depend solely on the amount of knowledge available, but is closely linked to the self-consciousness and choice of society. Intellectual identity transcends expert roles and needs to speak for vulnerable groups. This suggests that intellectuals need not only academic literacy but also a strong sense of social responsibility。
Academic background and public participation
In addition, intellectuals need to have a strong academic background and professionalism, and they need to know and understand. Intellectuals need to have a deep academic background and be actively involved in public affairs, rather than just asking questions or slogans。
Role of public intellectuals
Public intellectuals affecting china: definition and responsibility
When it comes to public intellectuals, we have to go back to the publication the southern person weekly. They highlighted three core elements of public intellectuals: a deep academic background, active participation in social affairs and critical spirit. Public intellectuals should represent the interests of the majority, with the central focus on speaking out for ordinary workers and vulnerable groups。
Distinction and misuse: the importance of treating public intellectuals with caution
We must carefully screen to ensure that public intellectuals are not misused. It is important to stress the importance of the careful treatment of public intellectuals, so that we can preserve their good image and reputation。
The example of semanan
Indeed, one of the outstanding representatives of public intellectuals is semanan. As a public intellectual who meets the criteria, simanan is representative of his behaviour and position, and he has always stood firm for the interests of workers, reflecting the sense of responsibility of public intellectuals。
04 summary and outlook
Future directions and personal awareness
Taking stock of the role of intellectuals in the future society, we can see that the role of intellectuals in the contemporary society is summarized and individual views are presented on the future development of the intellectual community. The role of public intellectuals will become even more important in the ongoing evolution of society, and they will need to constantly work in partnership with other social forces to achieve social justice。
