当下爱国主义教育的五点质疑

Reflection On the Present Patriotic Education

只有明确了"国"是什么和"国"在哪里,才能知道如何爱"国"及如何进行爱"国"主义教育。当下进行的爱国主义教育存在着认知上的模糊性、情感皈依上的虚无性、实践上的狭隘性等诸多问题。爱国主义教育首先应该体现在人的道德实践中的奉献精神,通过克服个体的特殊性,形成对普遍性和"国"的认知和情感皈依,最终使国家观念积淀到公民的认知、情感、行动乃至日常生活习惯中,在个人权利与义务的统一中,实现了我爱国家和国家爱我的统一,这是爱国主义及其教育的应然之途。

Only by clarifying what and where the ＂country＂ is can we know how to be patriotic and how to cultivate patriotism.The current patriotic education in China has problems： the ambiguity in understanding,the emptiness in emotional conversion and the narrowness in practice.Patriotism education should firstly reflect the dedication in moral practice.The inevitable path to patriotic education is to overcome the particularity of the individual to form the common understanding of the universality and the emotional conversion to the ＂country＂ and finally to get the nationhood melted into citizen’s cognition,emotion,practice and even daily routine.In the unification of individual rights and obligations,the unification of the individual with the nation can be achieved.
