On the eve of the sixth anniversary of the important speech of “5. 17”, general secretary xi stated during a study tour at the people's university of china that the construction of chinese philosophies and social sciences would be accelerated and, ultimately, the building of an autonomous knowledge system in china. At the same time, as the first national-level plan for the development of philosophical social sciences, the national plan for the development of philosophy social sciences for the period 14-5 was published. In this context, the union of social sciences of henan province has invited leading experts and scholars from the social sciences to renew the spirit of the important speech of “5. 17”, learn to follow the important statement of the secretary-general, talk about, speak about and learn, and gather momentum in the social sciences that are accelerating the construction of chinese philosophies. Henan has played a “demonstrant and more ceremonial” song, which is the 20th most popular party。
Today, he published an article by wang lingjie, director and researcher of the scientific research department of the faculty of social sciences of henan province, on the key issues in building china's autonomous knowledge system
On 25 april 2022, during a study tour at the people's university of china, general secretary xi stated that the construction of chinese philosophies and social sciences would be accelerated and, ultimately, an autonomous knowledge system would be constructed. This important assertion has provided a clear direction and focus for the creation of a new context for the flourishing of chinese philosophy and science. To enter a new stage of development and face new circumstances and tasks, there is an urgent need for clarity on several key issues in building china's autonomous knowledge system。
I. Towards people as the fundamental orientation for building china's autonomous knowledge system
The people are the main driving force behind the construction of china's socialism. They work for the happiness of the people, for the revival of the nation and for the world. In order to make a difference in our philosophical social sciences, we must maintain a people-centred research orientation. Building an autonomous knowledge system in china is all the more important to uphold the position of the people。
A people-centred approach to learning for the people is a noble value-oriented and historic mission to build china's autonomous knowledge system. The great philosophies of social science in the world have been created to answer and solve the major problems facing people and society. It is only by focusing on the growing needs of the people for a better life, responding to the real concerns of the people, working for comprehensive human development and social progress, and consciously seeking to show china’s path, chinese governance, chinese logic, that china’s autonomous knowledge system can be effectively strengthened in terms of productivity, vitality and creativity, and that china’s values, programmes and wisdom can be effectively reflected。
Ii. Innovation is a fundamental driving force in building china's autonomous knowledge system
Innovation is the driving force behind the social sciences of chinese philosophy. Building an autonomous knowledge system in china is an inherent requirement and a fundamental source of motivation。
One is to keep up the innovation. Innovation can only be rooted in the right political direction, academic orientation and value orientation, and innovation drives the building of autonomous knowledge systems. The marxism's leading role in philosophical social sciences must be upheld, new ideas must be laid out in keeping the path straight, and china's autonomous knowledge system must be built in the midst of positive innovation. The second is open innovation. Autonomous knowledge systems do not mean closing doors. The life and development of the knowledge system comes from open innovation, where innovation takes its own shape in open accommodation through crowd-building in exchange collisions, and where a broader vision and broader thinking capture the pulse of the time, and where open innovation features, displays styles and expressions. Third is comprehensive innovation. The construction of china’s autonomous knowledge system requires both intellectual and conceptual innovations, methodological and path-based innovations, as well as standard and rhetorical innovations, which require the constant promotion of intellectual, theoretical and methodological innovations, the acceleration of the construction of china’s autonomous knowledge system in the context of comprehensive innovation, and the genuine emergence of chinese philosophies in the world’s academic sciences。
Three main systems are fundamental to building china's autonomous knowledge system
China's autonomous knowledge system is the basis for the construction of chinese philosophies and social sciences, while china's philosophies and philosophies of social sciences, academic systems and speech systems provide fundamental support for china's autonomous knowledge system。
First, it is necessary to optimize the distribution of disciplines in a comprehensive manner, highlighting their strengths, expanding their fields and filling them in the form of a system of disciplines of chinese character and universal significance, in order to effectively upgrade the knowledge structure, localization and competitiveness of the knowledge paradigm and to enhance the subjectivity and originality of our philosophical social sciences. The second is to continue to build firm academic foundations, strengthen research on major theoretical and practical issues in economic and social development, and focus on achieving more innovative results in forward-looking, basic and reserve research, and strengthen china's autonomous knowledge system by building on china's academic prosperity. Thirdly, china's autonomous knowledge system should be used to guide the construction of china's sui generis philosophie-social and scientific discourse, to create new concepts, new dimensions and new expressions that can be easily understood and accepted by the international community, to enrich and innovate the conceptual expression and dissemination of china's autonomous knowledge system, and to send out chinese voices, disseminate chinese theory, interpret chinese practice and enhance china's influence。
China's land is a fundamental requirement for building china's autonomous knowledge system
The construction of china's autonomous knowledge system must be based on china's vision and age, and the writing of papers on the land and in china's homeland, so that theoretical innovation and the building of knowledge systems can be promoted in recognition of the great logical trends in the country's social and human development, in order to be consistent with china's actual and chinese characteristics。
On the one hand, it has to come from chinese practice. China's rich and dynamic exploration of reform and development has provided a rich practical basis and a strong and realistic demand for building china's autonomous knowledge system. In particular, the theory and practice of maintaining and developing chinese identity in socialist society raises a number of new issues that need to be resolved. Using western knowledge paradigms to analyse and even guide china’s development practices, china’s autonomous knowledge system is an urgent need and a necessary choice to build on chinese practice and answer the questions of the times. It is only by using our country as a practical starting point for research, by constantly learning from new knowledge, discovering new problems, building new theories and constantly promoting creative transformation and innovative development of china's excellent traditional culture, that we will be able to provide indefinable nutrients for building china's autonomous knowledge system. On the other hand, we have to go to chinese practice. China's autonomous knowledge system is being improved by continuing to use party innovation theory to guide the great practice of socialism in the new era, and by constantly enhancing the theoretical interpretation, methodological innovation and results-based service of china's autonomous knowledge system。
