“China’s Human Rights Science”is undoubtedly a brand-new concept.Just as China has its own philosophy,literature,history,law,political science,and sociology,it should also have its own human rights science.China’s Human Rights Science refers to the cognitive science of human rights in China.Developing its disciplinary system,academic system,and discourse system,and constructing an independent Chinese human rights knowledge system,are essential requirements for promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation through Chinese modernization and creating a new form of human civilization.China’s Human Rights Science originated in China,grew in China,and deepened through China’s human rights practices.China’s Human Rights Science adhere to the universality of human rights principles and possess distinctive characteristics.It works as the knowledge-based organization,academic refinement,and theoretical expression of the path of human rights development that conforms to the trend of the times and suits China’s national conditions,as pursued by the Communist Party of China in leading the people.China’s Human Rights Science can enrich and develop the theory of human rights civilization,and should become a global public product of human rights.

论建设中华民族现代文明的重大意义

习近平提出“建设中华民族现代文明”的历史任务,指明了新时代中国特色社会主义新的文化使命,具有重大现实意义和深远历史意义。只有建设中华民族现代文明,才能接续中华古老文明,从而保持中华文明的历史连续性;只有建设中华民族现代文明,才能激活中华文明固有活力并彰显其当代价值;只有建设中华民族现代文明,才能实现中华文明的现代化转型升级和创新发展;只有建设中华民族现代文明,才能实现中国特色社会主义事业与中华文明的内在连接;只有建设中华民族现代文明,才能使业已开创的人类文明新形态更加成熟和辉煌。

人类文明新形态的引领力量

一百年来,中国人民在中国共产党的领导下致力于实现中华民族伟大复兴的历史,就是一部人类文明新形态的创造史。党的领导为创造人类文明新形态引领方向、激发动力、凝聚力量,赋予人类文明新形态均衡性、主体性、民族性。近代以来,中国共产党在不同时期不断适应人民不同阶段的不同需求,在长期的探索中形成了自己独特的发展道路,铸就了新时代中华民族精神与文化的新辉煌。百年实践,中国共产党注重彰显人类文明新形态的中国特色,保证了人类文明新形态的社会主义方向,开创了世界文明形态的新版本。

建设中华民族现代文明的历史逻辑

建设中华民族现代文明是时代提出的重大理论问题。我们应该在历史的宏阔视野内理解并阐释建设中华民族现代文明的内在逻辑和历史动力,它是中国式现代化的必然诉求,是站在历史的宏阔视野中对人类文明和中华民族文明的洞察和把握,是对中国的未来道路和人类前途命运的深刻思考。与此同时,我们也要明确的是,建设中华民族现代文明不是简单的文化复古主义或空洞的全人类文明,其前提必须是建立在马克思主义理论基础之上的中华民族文明的新创造和新形态。

论习近平文化思想的科学体系

以新时代关于文化建设的“文本群”为文献依据,可以将习近平文化思想的主要内容概括为十个命题。坚持党对社会主义文化建设的全面领导,坚持马克思主义在意识形态领域指导地位的根本制度,坚持建设具有强大凝聚力和引领力的社会主义意识形态,坚持以人民为中心的社会主义文化工作导向,坚持以“两个结合”为核心的社会主义文化创新发展的科学原则和方法论,坚持建设物质文明和精神文明相协调的社会主义现代化,坚持以系统观念全面推进社会主义文化建设,坚持以文化创新推动社会主义文化大发展大繁荣,坚持以文化自信自强建设中华民族现代文明,坚持以全球文明倡议推动建设人类文明新形态。十者环环相扣、层层递进,构成了习近平文化思想的科学体系。习近平文化思想是贯穿于习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想的文化红线,将新时代各个专门领域的党的创新理论联结成为一个有机整体。

人类文明形态演进的生命辩证法

马克思的世界观实现了相对于旧哲学世界观的革命性变革,这就是把价值论的维度引入世界观,从而不仅回答了“世界是什么”的本体论问题,而且回答了“世界向何处去”的价值论问题。按照马克思的世界观,人类文明形态的演进本质上是人类这一物种寻求永生的过程。于是,世界历史进程便表现为人类文明形态不断演进的过程。文明形态的演进遵循辩证法原理,而人类通过文明形态的演进,展现了人类独特的生命活动形式,即生命辩证法。共产主义社会文明形态实现了人类文明中“自然法则”和“理性法则”的辩证统一,使人类这一物种的永久生存成为可能。

人类文明新形态研究的定性分析:演进逻辑、科学内涵与价值意蕴

任何一个社会的发展都是一定文明的真实反映与写照,作为一种崭新的社会发展形态,人类文明新形态是在社会主义文明发展过程中产生的新的伟大成果。目前,学术界在人类文明新形态的演进逻辑、科学内涵以及价值意蕴等方面取得了一系列的研究成果,但同时也存在着研究理论体系不够全面、研究内容不够深化、研究的学科视角以及方法有待创新等问题。着眼未来,为进一步推动人类文明新形态的研究取得新进展,应着力构建全面系统的人类文明新形态的理论体系,深化人类文明新形态的学理研究深度,拓展人类文明新形态的学科研究宽度。

中国式现代化的理论创新与世界意义

以中国式现代化全面推进中华民族伟大复兴,是我们党和国家未来一个时期的中心任务。中国式现代化把世界现代化的普遍性转化为本国现代化内生动力,把本国现代化的特殊性转变为人类文明新形态。习近平提出的中国式现代化,既有各国现代化的共同特征、更有基于自己国情的鲜明特色的“双重属性说”,是现代化学说发展中一个富有里程碑意义的创新突破,为中国式现代化理论体系构建提供了科学指南。习近平提出的马克思主义基本原理同中国具体实际、同中华优秀传统文化的“两个结合说”,为构建中国式现代化理论体系明确了根本途径。中国式现代化展现了不同于西方现代化的新图景,代表着人类文明进步方向,彰显着鲜明的时代价值与世界意义。

中原学离新时代中国学、世界中国学还有多远

中原文化、黄河文化是中华文明总进程的核心和引领者。担负新时代新的文化使命,建设中华民族现代文明,创造人类文明新形态,要求我们从构建中国自主知识体系的高度来定位、研究中原文化、黄河文化,推进中原文化、黄河文化的学问化、学术化、学科化、学派化表达,不断提升中华文化的影响力。在新时代中国学、世界中国学视野下,中原学要确立中华民族现代文明、人类文明新形态两个研究方向,回答好习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想是中华文化和中国精神的时代精华、中国道路与中华文明道路的关系、在中国式现代化的基础上深化中原学研究、推动中原学的国际化表达等四个核心问题。如此,中原学才能超越地域范畴,从中原之学走向中国之学、世界之学。

人类文明新形态创造中的民族生态文化叙事——以贵州松桃桐壳碱面为个案

人类文明新形态是中国共产党人在中国特色社会主义伟大实践中,有效遵循人与自然和谐共生逻辑形成的一种符合中国式现代化发展的文明新形态。它既是宏大的战略命题,也是微观的生活命题。人类文明新形态的创造离不开深厚的民族生态文化根基。从贵州松桃桐壳碱面的历史发源、生产流程、多元价值及其变迁、生态文明叙事逻辑研究发现,其从构思生产到加工完成实现了传统技艺与自然物之间的有效关联,是民族生态文化创造性转化与创新性发展的典型。在人类文明新形态创造的生态文化叙事中,体现为基因凝淀、价值传承、形态超越的价值演绎,是一种必要的研究范式,值得挖掘与研究,为人类文明新形态的创造提供深厚的民族生态文化基础。

人类文明新形态的多维论析

人类文明新形态是中国共产党团结带领中国人民的伟大创造。党的二十大从中国式现代化本质要求的高度提出要不断丰富和发展人类文明新形态。在理论逻辑上,人类文明新形态是传承创新马克思主义人类文明理论的最新成果;在历史逻辑上,人类文明新形态是中华文明、世界社会主义文明和中国特色社会主义文明发展的时代必然;在现实逻辑上,人类文明新形态是中国特色社会主义现代化实践的伟大成就;在发展逻辑上,人类文明新形态指明了当今世界社会主义和广大发展中国家走向现代文明的新道路。整体而言,人类文明新形态的内在逻辑标注了其合规律性与合目的性的统一,奠定了其科学性与可能性的坚实基础,对推动人类文明迈向更高发展阶段具有重要价值。

中国式现代化的总体性阐析

总体性方法是马克思审视和解析人类社会及其发展进程的基本方法。准确把握和深入理解中国式现代化,需要具有总体性思维,运用总体性方法,以总体性视野全面剖析中国式现代化。无论是从理论层面还是从实践维度来看,中国式现代化无疑都是一个极具总体性内涵和意蕴的范畴。中国式现代化的总体性集中体现在人的发展的总体性、全体人富裕的总体性、全球发展的总体性和文明建构的总体性。中国式现代化的总体性充分彰显了精神世界与物质世界、人与人、中国与世界、本国文明与他国文明之间的协调、系统性发展。其总体性意蕴为不断推进中国式现代化进而实现中华民族伟大复兴提供了方法引领和智力支撑,也为后发展国家追求本国现代化道路提供了思想启示和实践参考。全面梳理呈现和总结把握中国式现代化的总体性意蕴,持续整体推进中国式现代化是新时代的一项重大课题。

比较视域下中国式现代化的世界意义

中国式现代化作为惠及全体民众、谋求共同富裕、追求全面协调、实现生态美好、倡导和平发展的现代化新模式,以“人民至上”为价值遵循、以全面协调为发展逻辑、以和平发展为基本原则,超越了西方资本主义现代化的发展模式;开创政党中心主义新范式、秉持独立自主基本原则、坚持守正与创新相统一,突破了后发现代化国家对西方发达国家的依附关系,重塑了现代化新路径;创造以全过程人民民主为核心的政治文明、以实现共同富裕为目标的物质文明、以交流互鉴为基点的精神文明、以公平正义为归宿的社会文明、以人与自然和谐共生为内在要求的生态文明,为人类文明注入了新活力。
