On Forging a Strong Sense of Community for the Chinese Nation and the Continuous Development of the Cohesion of the Chinese Nation

Chinese national cohesion,through hard forging in the long course of history,has strong historical inertia.The theory of"Great Unification"a multi-ethnic state structure under this ideology,the"multi-colorfully integrated"Chinese culture,a constantly evolving and subliming sense of"Huaxia identity"and other historical genes make a far-reaching significance to producing and developing the cohesion of the Chinese nation.The Communist Party of China(CPC)fully appreciates the laws and prevailing trends of history,seizes the historical initiative,and combines them with new historical context,so unremittingly promotes the continuous development of the cohesion of the Chinese nation.On the new journey into the new era,General Secretary Xi Jinping,centering on the epochal theme of"the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation",put forward the original assertion of"forging a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation",pointing out that"forging a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation"as the main theme to continuously promote the construction of the Chinese national community,which has had a tremendous and far-reaching impact on the continued development of the cohesion of the Chinese nation.Forging a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation and continuously developing the cohesion of the Chinese nation reflect the historical consciousness and the spirit of the historical initiative of the CPC in the new era to unite and lead the people of all ethnic groups in the country,to unite the majestic power of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation,and to promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation comprehensively.

Four Pillars Underpinning a Strong Sense of Community for the Chinese Nation

Throughout history,there have been close political,economic,and cultural connections between the border areas and the interior of China.To strengthen the unity of the Chinese nation and forge a strong sense of national identity,it is important to draw inspiration from our history.Politically,we must reinforce the memory of national unity and promote the belief that the Chinese nation is a big family and China's territory is indivisible.Economically,it is crucial to continue the historical economic ties between the border areas and the interior,and to deepen economic interdependence in the present era.This will strengthen economic connections between different regions and groups within China and promote unity.Socially,it is essential to facilitate the population flow between dfferent regions,particularly between the border areas and the interior,to promote ethnic communication and integration.Encouraging ethnic groups to live among each other and supporting two-way population flow can further enhance social cohesion.Culturally,we must maintain our tradition of cultural sharing and spread traditional Chinese culture and modern socialist values among all ethnic groups.This will strengthen the bond of the Chinese nation as one community.These four pillars-political,economic,social,and cultural-form the foundation of a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation.

A Sense of Community for the Chinese Nation Embodied in the Musical Dance Art of Early Dunhuang Grottoes

The musical dance art recorded in early Dunhuang Grottoes,though supposed to be created by ancient northern ethnic groups such as the Hun and Xianbei,gives expression to a strong thought of"Chinafication"and a sense of community for the Chinese nation.By analyzing the essence and content of the musical dance art in the Dunhuang Grottoes created during the Northern Liang(A.D.397-460),Northern Wei(A.D.386-534),Western Wei(A.D.535-556)and Northern Zhou(A.D.557-581)Dynasties,and by exploring the contribution of ancient ethnic groups such as the Hun and Xianbei in the formation and development of Chinese nation,this study reveals that the musical dance art in early Dunhuang Grottoes faithfully reflects the community pattern of the Chinese nation featured by"unity in diversity"developed since ancient times,and hopes that the future research and creation may expand their horizon by incorporating the musical dance art of early Dunhuang Grottoes into the system of contemporary Dunhuang dance.

Fostering a Strong Sense of Community for the Chinese Nation and the Chinafication of Tibetan Buddhism

The objective of fostering a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation is to establish the Chinese national identity,which is the symbol of a modern nation-state,for all Minzu in China;and the precondition of it is to define"China"and"Chinese people"with preciseness.For that sake,we must abolish both Han chauvinism and narrow-minded local ethnic chauvinism,and reaffirm the staunch belief that all 56 Minzu are inseparable parts of the Chinese nation and that all people of these 56 Minzu are Chinese people.To adapt Tibetan Buddhism to the Chinese context is not to sinicize Tibetan Buddhism,but to adapt it to the requirement for the development and progress of the Chinese nation in a new era,as well as to make it a fantastic catalyst for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.For the sake of it,we will not only make Tibetan Buddhism a crucial part of Chinese Buddhism,but also include Han and Tibetan Buddhism as the most important identity of Chinese Buddhism,so as to integrate Tibetan Buddhism,Han Buddhism,and Theravada Buddhism inside China and strengthen a sense of community for Chinese nation in China's Buddhist community,which will serve as an important part of forging a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation.
