Continuously deepen the understanding of the regularity of cultural construction

General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out at the symposium on cultural inheritance and development: "It is our new cultural mission in the new era to continue to promote cultural prosperity, build a cultural power, and build the modern civilization of the Chinese nation at a new starting point. "The proposal of the new cultural mission has pointed out the direction for the construction of socialist culture with Chinese characteristics, made the line and task of propaganda, ideological and cultural work clearer, and is of great significance in the history of the development of Marxism and the history of Chinese civilization. On the new journey, to better undertake the new cultural mission, it is necessary to deeply grasp the important relationship between the party's leadership and the people's position, cultural subjectivity and cultural diversity, cultural inheritance and innovative development, strategic planning and practice promotion, and continuously deepen the understanding of the regularity of cultural construction with a high degree of cultural consciousness and cultural self-confidence, so as to create a new situation in cultural construction in the new era.

1. Deeply understand the relationship between the party's leadership and the people's position

Strengthen the party's overall leadership over propaganda, ideological and cultural work, and raise the banner for undertaking the new cultural mission. Upholding the party's leadership is the key to ensuring that propaganda, ideological, and cultural work always advances in the right direction and that the building of a socialist cultural power continues to achieve practical results. Only by carrying out the party's leadership throughout the entire process and all aspects of propaganda, ideological and cultural work, profoundly understanding the decisive significance of the "two establishments", strengthening the "four consciousnesses", strengthening the "four self-confidences", and achieving the "two safeguards", constantly consolidating the guiding position of Marxism in the ideological field, persisting in leading cultural construction with the core socialist values, and further unleashing the innovative and creative vitality of the advanced socialist culture, can we consciously resist the invasion of various erroneous trends of thought and gain a firm foothold in the turmoil of world culture.

Firmly stand on the people's position, give full play to the subjective initiative of the people, and stabilize the people's hearts and unite the people's strength to undertake the new cultural mission. The prosperity and development of culture must ultimately fall on satisfying the growing spiritual and cultural needs of the masses of the people. The cultural demands of the people have a direct impact on the development and progress of cultural undertakings. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core has always adhered to the principle that cultural development is for the people, relies on the people, and the fruits are shared by the people, so that the fruits of cultural construction can benefit all the people more and more fairly. "For the people" profoundly answers the ontological proposition of who cultural construction serves, emphasizing that cultural development should serve the lives of the people and constantly meet the spiritual and cultural needs of the people; "relying on the people" profoundly answers the source of the party's strength to continuously promote cultural innovation, stresses that giving full play to the subjective strength of the people, stimulates the vitality of cultural innovation and creativity of the whole nation, and gathers a strong synergy to build the modern civilization of the Chinese nation It profoundly answers the goal of cultural development, emphasizes the protection of the cultural rights and interests of all people, and allows all people to fairly enjoy a better supply of cultural resources and a more abundant spiritual world.

Upholding the unity of the party's leadership and upholding the people's stand is the embodiment of the unity of the party nature and the people's nature of a Marxist political party, and is also the basic requirement for undertaking a new cultural mission. To do a solid job in propaganda, ideology, and cultural work in the new era, it is necessary to clarify the principled issues of "who will lead" and "who will serve" in cultural construction, persist in stressing politics, grasp the correct orientation, unify the expression of the party's propositions with the reflection of the people's voice, and combine satisfying the people's cultural needs with enhancing the people's spiritual strength. On the one hand, it adheres to the cultural leadership of the Communist Party of China, strengthens the party's policy orientation and social guidance, uses mainstream ideology and culture to lead social development, and uses the party's innovative theories to arm the whole party and educate the people; on the other hand, it adheres to the people-centered cultural work orientation, gives full play to the people's awareness of cultural subjectivity, and forms a new situation of cultural development in which the people are the main body, created by the people, and shared by the people.

2. Scientifically understand the relationship between cultural subjectivity and cultural diversity

Cultural subjectivity emphasizes proceeding from the reality of one's own nation and treating all outstanding achievements of civilization created by one's own nation with the attitude and stance of inheritance and development. The cultural subjectivity of the modern civilization of the Chinese nation refers to the socialist cultural category with Chinese characteristics generated under the guidance of Marxism and on the basis of the "two combinations". It not only accumulates the deepest spiritual pursuit of the Chinese nation, carries the spiritual genes of the Chinese nation, but also contains all the outstanding achievements of the theoretical and practical innovation of socialist culture with Chinese characteristics. Grasping the cultural subjectivity of the modern civilization of the Chinese nation is of fundamental significance for strengthening cultural self-confidence and consciously undertaking a new cultural mission. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized: "Cultural self-confidence comes from our cultural subjectivity. "With cultural subjectivity, cultural self-confidence has a fundamental basis, and the Communist Party of China has a strong cultural force and a solid cultural foundation to lead the times, and the establishment of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era is the most powerful embodiment of this cultural subjectivity.

Cultural diversity emphasizes that from the height of the history of the development of human civilization, we should treat all outstanding achievements of civilization created by mankind with an open and inclusive attitude and mind. The modern civilization of the Chinese nation not only has the cultural independence of the Chinese nation, but also has the distinctive cultural characteristics of exchanges and mutual learning with other civilizations in the world. According to Marx, in order for the Russian village community to make a direct transition to socialism without going through the "Kaftin Gorge" of the capitalist system, it must "take possession of all the positive results created by the capitalist system". In the process of promoting the development of socialist culture with Chinese characteristics, we do not "abandon the West as if it were a piece of the West", nor do we reject the cultural achievements of other countries and nations, but on the basis of comparison and comparison, we will discriminately absorb the advanced aspects and beneficial elements of other cultures, take the essence and discard the dross, and absorb all the outstanding achievements of human civilization with an open and confident attitude, so as to provide reference for better building the modern civilization of the Chinese nation.

Cultural subjectivity is related to a country's or nation's cultural identity with its own nation, and embodies the value identity and value consensus to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation; cultural diversity is related to a profound insight into the law of human social development and the development trend of human civilization, and brings together the majestic force and experience and wisdom to promote the progress of human civilization. To undertake the new cultural mission of continuing to promote cultural prosperity, building a cultural power, and building the modern civilization of the Chinese nation from a new starting point, it is necessary not only to emphasize cultural subjectivity, but also to promote cultural exchanges and mutual learning; to maintain the spiritual independence of the Chinese nation, but also to respect the development of the diversity of world civilizations, and to endothetically combine the inheritance and promotion of the excellent traditional Chinese culture with the absorption and reference of all outstanding cultural achievements of mankind, so as to realize the integration of national culture and world culture.

3. Correctly handle the relationship between cultural inheritance and innovation and development

Cultural inheritance is the source of the endless strength of a country and a nation. As the cultural root of the Chinese nation, the ideological concepts, humanistic spirit and moral norms contained in the excellent traditional Chinese culture are not only the core of Chinese ideology and spirit, but also have important value for solving human problems. Among them, the spiritual characteristics of benevolence, valuing the people, keeping integrity, advocating justice, upholding harmony and seeking great harmony, the moral concept of "do not do to others what you do not want to be done to yourself", "the use of courtesy, harmony is precious", and the ideal realm of "the world is for the public" and "the world is one family", etc., both in the past and now, have distinctive national characteristics and the value of the times that will never fade. To better undertake the new cultural mission at a new historical starting point, it is inseparable from the adherence to the root of the excellent traditional Chinese culture, and the inheritance of the Chinese civilization and the precious wisdom accumulated over more than 5,000 years.

Cultural innovation and development is an inevitable requirement for continuing the Chinese cultural context and promoting cultural prosperity. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: "Chinese civilization is a civilization that is reforming the old and renewing with each passing day, and the deep flow of still water is intertwined with the magnificent waves. Continuity is not stagnation, let alone rigidity, but a process of historical progress supported by innovation. "The Chinese nation has a strong spirit of innovation since ancient times, and innovation is the deepest national endowment of the Chinese nation. From people-oriented to democracy, from Kyushu coherence to the community of the Chinese nation, from the coexistence of all things to the harmonious coexistence of man and nature, from enriching the people to common prosperity, Chinese civilization has opened up a new face, realized the leap from tradition to modernity, and developed the modern form of Chinese civilization. To better undertake the new cultural mission at a new historical starting point, it is inseparable from the integration of the basic tenets of Marxism with the excellent traditional Chinese culture, and from the creative transformation and innovative development of the excellent traditional Chinese culture. Only by scientifically identifying and correctly selecting traditional culture in accordance with the characteristics and requirements of the times, transforming the connotations and outdated forms of expression in traditional culture that still have reference value, and giving them new connotations and modern forms of expression, can we activate the vitality of the times of the excellent traditional Chinese culture, promote the renewal and modern transformation of Chinese culture, and create a new cultural life.

Correctly handling the relationship between cultural inheritance and innovation and development embodies the dialectical unity of change and change, history and reality, tradition and modernity. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: "Every civilization continues the spiritual blood of a country and a nation, which needs to be passed down from generation to generation, and more importantly, it needs to keep pace with the times and be brave in innovation." "Cultural inheritance is the premise of cultural innovation and development, and cultural innovation and development can better demonstrate the value of cultural inheritance. On the new journey of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way, we should better undertake the new cultural mission, not only to continue to inherit the ancient civilization with the enterprising spirit of keeping the right and not the old, respecting the ancient and not retro, but also to develop and innovate on the basis of respecting the tradition with the righteousness and vigor of keeping the right and innovating, and further promote the "second combination" to realize the creative transformation and innovative development of the excellent traditional Chinese culture.

4. Coordinate and grasp the relationship between strategic planning and practical promotion

Undertaking the new cultural mission is a systematic project, which needs to be "handled at the top", strengthen strategic planning and top-level design, and ensure that all work is always moving forward in the right direction. As a major achievement of Marxist cultural theory innovation, Xi Jinping Cultural Thought stands at the height of the overall situation and strategy, anchors the grand goal of creating a new glory of socialist culture, and establishes a new cultural mission of "promoting cultural prosperity, building a cultural power, and building the modern civilization of the Chinese nation", so that the party's understanding of propaganda, ideological and cultural work has reached a new height. The understanding of laws from the "nine insistences" to the "14 emphasises" and then to the "seven efforts", as well as the original theories such as adhering to the fundamental requirements of the "two combinations" and upholding the cultural subjectivity of the Chinese nation, have been put forward one after another, providing a powerful ideological weapon and a guide for scientific action for further doing a good job in propaganda, ideology, and cultural work. On the historical journey of realizing the second centenary goal, to undertake the new cultural mission, it is necessary to follow Xi Jinping Cultural Thought as the fundamental follow, work overall planning and overall layout, enhance the forward-looking, holistic and collaborative nature of propaganda, ideological and cultural work, and promote the cultural construction of the new era to continuously achieve new historic achievements.

Undertaking a new cultural mission is also a practical undertaking, and it is necessary to "divide the details into the following", persist in perseverance and bold exploration, and constantly create a new culture belonging to our time in practice. One point of deployment, nine points of implementation. Xi Jinping's cultural thought not only has innovations and breakthroughs in cultural theory, but also has the deployment requirements of cultural work layout. Standing at a new historical starting point and undertaking a new cultural mission, we must implement the decisions and arrangements of the Party Central Committee on propaganda, ideological and cultural work in the spirit of "nailing", focus on comprehensive efforts in various fields, and promote the cultural construction of the new era to achieve new results.

Grasping the relationship between strategic planning and practice embodies the dialectical unity of being based on reality and focusing on the long-term, problem-oriented and goal-oriented, and epistemology and methodology. To undertake the new cultural mission, it is necessary to have a clear understanding of the direction and how to exert efforts in the propaganda, ideological and cultural work in the new era, and it is necessary to have both a macro-level strategic strategy and a specific path and method, and to have both overall planning and real work. On the new journey, to better undertake the new cultural mission, it is necessary to organically combine the firmness of strategic planning and the decisiveness of practical promotion to ensure that targeted measures in the field of culture are effective.
