Building china's autonomous knowledge system should be based on the chinese-style modernization process, by studying and interpreting the theoretical and practical innovations of china's modernity, and by demonstrating the autonomy of the knowledge system in its chinese-style modernity, thereby highlighting its original contribution to the modernization of the world。
In april 2022, during a study tour at the people's university of china, the secretary-general of xi jinping emphasized: “accelerating the construction of chinese-style philosophy and social sciences, ultimately building an autonomous chinese knowledge system.” the secretary-general of xi jinping's important statement is a scientific judgement on the construction of chinese philosophies for social sciences, which point the way forward, provide fundamental adherence, and are of great theoretical value and strategic importance. In the new era, one of the most important aspects of building an autonomous knowledge system in china is the process of theoretical and practical innovation based on china-style modernization, with china-style modernization highlighting the autonomy of the knowledge system and the original contribution of chinese-style modernization to the modernization of the world。
Basic path to building china's autonomous knowledge system based on china's modernization
In a sense, knowledge systems are based on a certain amount of practical experience and knowledge, drawing together specific expertise, including natural and philosophical scientific knowledge systems. In the area of philosophy and social sciences, china's autonomous knowledge system is built on its own experience and knowledge of the country's own philosophical social sciences. It promotes self-thinking, focusing on original results, resolving china's problems, prosperous chinese academia and developing chinese theory. The essence of building china's autonomous knowledge system based on china's modernization is to build up chinese theory towards the world as china's modernization progresses and expands, strengthens chinese cultural soft power, enhances our theoretical voice and consolidates the cultural fundamentals of the chinese nation. This is an urgent and difficult system project, strategic, holistic, long-term, slow and urgent, requiring the collective efforts of our philosophical and social science community。
It's true and innovative. Guided by the socialist ideas of china in the new era of xi jinping, the world view and methodology of this important idea should be taken into account, and the approach of the positions that permeate it should be maintained and applied. It is in this context that the general pattern of the development of philosophical social sciences should be followed in scientific terms, with a view to deepening research into innovations in modern chinese theory and practice, focusing on the intrinsic link between results, and vigorously promoting the construction and innovation of discipline systems, academic systems, speech systems and languages。
The relationship between theoretical results and the concept of marking is captured. In the construction of the scientific knowledge system of philosophical societies, theoretical results tend to take the form of indicative concepts, with their corresponding theoretical outcomes largely embedded behind each. The building of china's autonomous knowledge system must be guided by the great process of china's modernization. In particular, it must be guided by the important statement of the secretary-general of xi jinping on china's modernization. It should focus on the chemicalization of the system as a focus. It should expand the scope and depth of research. It should also enhance the development of holistic and systematic research. It should translate the theoretical findings of the secretary-general of xi's important statement on china's modernization into the intellectual discourse, research paradigm and academic theory of chinese philosophy and social sciences。
It's not like we're going to have to forget what we're doing. It is the creative transformation and innovative development of china's excellent traditional culture that is constantly being promoted; the integration of outsiders that is drawing on all the useful achievements of human civilization; and the future-oriented drive for intellectual, theoretical and methodological innovation that is geared towards the trends of the world and times of the twenty-first century。
Jump out of western centralism. In a sense, western centralism is the theoretical form of western modernization. The world has been influenced by western modernization and the western centralism that has shaped it, and many of the major theories of western philosophy and social science in recent times have generally been built around western centres. China's own knowledge system, based on china's modernization, is based both on a thorough reflection of the core elements of western centralism and on the parameters of the logo, and on the practical experience of china's own modernization, drawing on the core elements of china's own knowledge system and the parameters of china's identity, recognizing that china's modernization goes beyond western modernization theory and practice。
China's modern chinese character highlights the autonomy of knowledge systems
The secretary-general of xi said: “we have a chinese character in our philosophy and social sciences, which ultimately depends on whether or not it is dominant or original.” china-style modernization is a socialist modernization led by the communist party of china (cpc), with common features of modernization in all countries and a more chinese feature based on its own circumstances. China's own knowledge system must be built on chinese-style modernization. It must be guided by the chinese socialist ideology of xi jinping's new era. It must be fundamental and original. It must take knowledge from chinese-style modern practices into account。
Population issues are a cross-cutting, long-term and strategic issue for our country, and population development is a major event for the great revival of the chinese nation in relations. China's modernization is a massive modernization of the size of the population, with more than 1. 4 billion people entering a modern society as a whole, larger than the total population of the current developed countries. In the process of leading and promoting china's modernization, the party has focused on improving the quality of the population as a whole, optimizing its demographic structure, linking the development of a high-quality population closely to the high-quality life of the people, promoting the rational distribution of modern human resources, promoting the long-term balanced development of the population, and striving to bring population development into line with high-quality economic and social development. China's autonomous knowledge system should be built on the realities of its population, and should be based on an in-depth study and interpretation of the content and scope of its high-quality development. It should be structured, summed up and refined in a systematic manner. It should be able to distill the results of china's modernity in terms of improving the quality of the population as a whole, enhancing the competitiveness of the population as a whole and promoting sustainable population development. It should also provide scientific support for china's modernity in terms of quality population development。
Modernization should not be about the poorer and richer of the poor, and how to avoid disparities and polarization in the process of modernization was an important issue for modernization. China-style modernization insists on the fundamental requirement of socialism, which is a chinese feature, and on the modernization of prosperity for all. In leading and advancing china's modernization, our party is committed to a people-centred approach to development, to a common path of prosperity, and to making big “cakes” in parallel with “cakes”, so that the fruits of development reach the entire population more and more equitably. The building of china's autonomous knowledge system should be firmly anchored in the fundamental characteristics of china's modernity, which is shared wealth among all its people. It should study and explain in depth the major theoretical and practical achievements of china's modernity in advancing common wealth in terms of coverage, coverage, means of realization and practical processes. It should streamline and summarize the original contribution of china's modernity to the recognition and management of efficient and equitable relations, growth and distribution, and help build china's common wealth for all。
Material and spiritual civilization is the umbrella and crystallization of humankind's understanding of the world and of all its achievements. The promotion of the harmonious development of material and spiritual civilizations is a part of the construction of modernization. China-style modernization emphasizes material and spiritual enrichment and is a harmonious modernization of material and spiritual civilization. In leading and promoting china's modernization, our party has constantly pursued material civilization, constantly building up the material foundations of modernity and building the material conditions in which people live happily. At the same time, the spiritual civilization is being built in a consistent manner, the advanced culture of socialism is being vigorously developed, ideal education is being strengthened and the chinese civilization is being inherited. China's autonomous knowledge system, based on china's modernity, must be based on an in-depth scientific study and elaboration of the dialectical and unified relationship between material and spiritual civilization in china's modernity, providing methodological guidance for the transformation of the subjective and objective world and for the better construction of china's modernity in harmony between material and spiritual civilizations。
The relationship between human beings and nature is the most fundamental relationship of human society, and how it is recognized and managed is the universal subject of modernization. In the process of modernization, some countries have taken the path of “pollution before remediation” to the wanton exploitation of natural resources, the damaging of the ecological environment and the resulting serious problems of environmental pollution and resource depletion. China's modern style inherits and develops marxist nature and ecology, creative transformation and innovative development of china's excellent traditional ecological culture, and adheres to respect for nature, its adaptation to nature and the preservation of its ecological values. The building of china's autonomous knowledge system should take a deep grasp of the fundamental requirements of chinese-style modernization, which promote harmony between human beings and nature. It should systematically study and summarize the important theoretical and practical achievements of chinese-style modernization in terms of recognizing and managing the relationship between high-quality development and high-level protection, the relationship between stress and concerted governance, the relationship between natural recovery and artificial restoration, the relationship between external constraints and internal dynamics, the relationship between “two carbon” commitment and autonomous action. In furthering the marxist fundamentals, combined with china's ecological civilization-building practices, and with china's excellent traditional ecological culture, it should help build chinese-style modernization in harmony with nature。
Human beings are a community of destiny, and the process of modernization of the world can only move forward if peace is passed on from generation to generation. China's modern approach, which upholds independence and self-reliance, has always raised the banner of peace, development, cooperation and win-winness, firmly stands on the right side of history, on the right side of progress in human civilization, pursuing its own development in preserving world peace and development, and better preserving world peace and development through its own development. It is a modernization of the path of peaceful development. China's own knowledge system must be built on china's chinese model of modernization. It must take a deep sense of the salient features of china's approach to peace and development. It must study and explain in depth the world view of china's chinese model of modernization. It must clarify the great theoretical and practical significance of chinese-style modernization theory for building a community of human destiny. It must provide theoretical support for the modernization of the world for peaceful development, mutually beneficial cooperation and common prosperity。
According to general secretary xi, “china's modernization has broken the myth of `modernization = westernization', has shown another picture of modernization, has expanded the path of developing countries towards modernization, and has provided a chinese solution for human exploration of better social systems.” the path to modernization is diverse and not exclusive to the west. China's modernization is deeply rooted in china's excellent traditional culture and reflects the advanced nature of scientific socialism. It draws on the achievements of all human civilizational excellence, represents the direction in which human civilization progresses. It presents a new picture of modernity that differs from that of the west and is a completely new form of human civilization. China's own knowledge system is built on china's own modernity, and it is important to follow its own path, focusing on what we are doing, and to study and explain the theoretical and practical innovations of china's modernity. At the same time, china's theory has been promoted in a systematic and scientific way, so that the world knows about “academic china” and “theoretical china” and “china” in the “philosophical social sciences”。
