唯物史观视域下中华民族现代文明的出场逻辑及其方法论自觉

The Emergence Logic and Methodology Consciousness of the Modern Chinese Civilization from the Perspective of Historical Materialism

唯物史观洞明“文明是实践的事情,是社会的素质”,这一论断内蕴时空二维向度。中华民族现代文明在时间维度上是从传统到现代的继起,在空间维度上是由中华而世界的交织。以唯物史观为理论视域考察中华民族现代文明的出场,其扎根于当代中国实践创新,是“现实的人”追求自己目的的对象性产物;是中国历史传统的有机延续,“文明更新的结果,不是文明断裂的产物”;与马克思主义中国化时代化同向同行、共生共荣、本质关联,中国化时代化马克思主义是其价值引领和“活的灵魂”;借鉴扬弃了西方文明成果,是对资本主义“现代性之殇”的实践超越。这一出场遵循历史传统与当代形态有机延续、实践探索与理论演进良性互动、民族叙事与世界胸怀相通共融、科学真理与价值旨归高度融合的方法论,其也是建设中华民族现代文明的思想方法和实践指南。

The construction of the modern Chinese civilization is an important content of Xi Jinping Thought on Culture and a new cultural mission that CPC must shoulder in the new era.The contemporary emergence of the modern Chinese civilization indicates the direction of the development and progress of the Chinese nation.Scientifically grasping the essential meaning of the modern Chinese civilization is an important prerequisite for exploring its emergence logic.The historical materialism has a clear insight that“civilization is a practical matter and a social quality”,and regards the initiative cognition and creative practice of“realistic people”,the essential implication and endogenous change of social relations as the basic composition and evolutionary driving force of human civilization.This historical view contains a two-dimensional examination of the spatio-temporal dimension of human civilization.The modern Chinese civilization is the succession from tradition to modernity in the time dimension,and the interweaving of China and the world in the space dimension.The modern Chinese civilization emerges in the complicated historical field.The modern Chinese civilization is rooted in contemporary China’s practical innovation.The brilliant material civilization,political civilization,spiritual civilization,social civilization and ecological civilization created by the Chinese people have built the main body of the new civilization.The modern Chinese civilization is the“return to the root and open up new ways”of Chinese history and tradition.The outstanding characteristics,spiritual tradition and temperament of the Chinese civilization constitute the national content of the modern Chinese civilization.China has also given it modern connotation and modern power in the process of modernization.The modern Chinese civilization and the localization and modernization of Marxism are in the same direction,symbiotic and essentially related.The universal truth of Marxism provides ideological guidance,modern connotation and“living soul”for the Chinese civilization to brush away the dust and realize rebirth.The modern Chinese civilization has learned from and subverted the achievements of western civilization,and has realized historical reflection,critical absorption and practical transcendence of the“tragedy of modernity”of capitalism in openness and inclusiveness.The emergence of the modern Chinese civilization follows the following methodology.First,adhering to the organic continuation of historical tradition and contemporary form in order to form“a new,organically unified cultural entity”in the transformation and fusion of the two.Second,adhering to the benign interaction of practical exploration and theoretical evolution in order to achieve common development in the mutual infiltration and influence of the two.Third,adhering to the national narrative and the world mindedness’s integration in order to create a new form of civilization in the eclectic and inclusive way.Fourth,adhering to the high integration of scientific truth and value purpose in order to pursue the lofty realm of civilization development in the dialectical unity of the two.
