Fostering Chinese National Unity:Advocating the National Common Language and Writing System for Heightened Community Awareness

The promotion of the national common language and writing system stands as a cornerstone in cultivating a sense of community among the Chinese nation.The national common language and writing system,serving as a potent vehicle for cultural dissemination and linguistic communication,acts as a crucial bridge fostering unity,mutual support,cultural exchange,and cohesion among diverse ethnic groups.Its widespread promotion not only reinforces the cohesion of the Chinese nation but also plays a pivotal role in fortifying national and cultural identity.The advocacy and dissemination of the national common language and writing system contribute significantly to enhancing the sense of community within the Chinese nation.This concerted effort serves as an internal driving force,creating a positive feedback loop that strengthens both national identity and the cultural bonds shared by the Chinese people.The reciprocal relationship between the promotion and popularization of the national common language and writing system reinforces a mutual sense of assistance and reciprocity.This bidirectional dynamic propels a synergistic interplay,fostering a beneficial cycle in the promotion and widespread adoption of the national common language and writing system.In essence,the promotion and popularization of the national common language and writing system not only contribute to its advancement but also serve to deepen the sense of community within the Chinese nation.This reciprocal interaction between the two elements establishes a robust foundation for nurturing a strong and cohesive Chinese community.

A Semiotic Path to Forging a Sense of Community for the Chinese Nation

Since the 18th National Congress,forging a sense of community for the Chinese nation has become the guiding principle of Minzu Work;and it serves the overall goal of building a modern socialist country with Chinese characteristics and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.In order to forge a sense of community for the Chinese nation,having top design and material basis is not enough,dynamic motivation and actual practice are also necessary to connect the two together closely.Semiotic activities,which integrate sensory perceptibility,indexicality and symbolic meaning may act as the binding agent and coagulant that stick together the"material form"and the""spirit"of the top design,so as to develop naturalized habituation and match our actions to our words.Culture is embodied not only in the sophisticated and exceedingly esteemed theories and arts,but also in the rich spectrum of daily life of the general public;it involves the semiosis of triads:sensory perceptibility,indexicality,and symbolic values.Here the formation of habits is also involved.Though forging a sense of community for the Chinese nation happens on a cultural-ethical level,it has to be tangibly supported with the motivated will and physical sensations.

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.

Building a Community for the Chinese Nation in the Context of National Cohesion

Mr.Fei Xiaotong once pointed out that Han people has played a central cohesive role in the formation of the unified multi-ethnic Chinese nation.The emergence and popularization of the concept of“Chinese nation"is itself a manifestation of national cohesion.The history of unified multi-ethnic Chinese nation since the Qin and Han dynasties has laid the foundation of the community for Chinese nation.The building of the community for the Chinese nation is both a realistic subject and a historical process.Since its founding,the Communist Party of China(CPC)has been committed to pushing forward the establishment of a community for the Chinese nation.The ultimate purpose of fostering a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation,standing firmly with“Five Identities",and enhancing our identity with and pride in the Chinese nation,is to improve national cohesion of China.A community for the Chinese nation is a critical expression for Chinese national cohesion;and to push forward the establishment of a community for the Chinese nation in the new era is one of the key measures to improve Chinese national cohesion.

On Theories and Methods of Modern Civilization for Promoting the Building of Community for the Chinese Nation

The community of the Chinese nation,in its essence,is a community of civilization.On the basis of extensive and in-depth exchanges and integration and interaction,people from all ethnic groups in China collectively nurtured Chinese civilization,which has prominent features of continuity,innovation,unity,inclusiveness,and peacefulness and lays a solid foundation for the building of community for the Chinese nation of the time.In the context of the new era,the Party advances the building of community for the Chinese nation on all fronts and has successfully made a series of achievements to promote ethnic unity and progressions through promoting material,political,cultural-ethical,social,and ecological advancement.As we advance the building of modern Chinese civilization on all fronts,strengthening foundations for economic,political,cultural,social,and ecological development can foster new drivers for the modernization of the civilization of community of the Chinese nation.Faced with the practical needs of building a community of the Chinese nation at the new development stage,we must step up efforts to establish the theoretical discourse system of community for modern Chinese civilization,lay emphasis on the construction of systems for symbol and image,discourse and narrative,as well as overseas communications,and on the exploration of development patterns for theories,so as to present theories and methods of modern civilization for promoting the building of community for the Chinese nation.

Great Flood Myths and Cultural Community of the Chinese Nation

The community of the Chinese nation is a unified whole that consists of all ethnic groups in China;it is a cultural community that's formed alongside the long-term exchanges and interactions among all ethnic groups in China.When disastrous events occur,the cultural community of the Chinese nation will gradually take its shape and reveal its unique characteristics as it fights against disasters.Ancient myths are the carrier of a nation's national history and memory,cultural value,and spiritual character.Specifically,the Great Flood myths,which signify utter destruction and rebirth,demonstrate the ideological basis and spiritual origin of a cultural community.There are a large number of Great Flood myths around the world that have longstanding influence.However,Great Flood myths in China are distinctively different from foreign Great Flood myths:foreign flood myths mostly emphasize the authority of heavenly divinity,and humans can do nothing about the flood but evade and struggle to survive.In comparison,flood-taming heroes in Chinese myths always take positive perspectives and proactive actions to courageously fight against and tame the flood,which demonstrates the national spirit of solidarity and perseverance of Chinese people.Great Flood myths of different ethnic groups in China reflect the history of exchanges and interactions of the Chinese nation and show that all Chinese people are of the same origin.From the perspective of both national history and spiritual value,Great Flood myths in China vividly demonstrate that the Chinese nation is an objectively existing,widely acknowledged by Chinese people,and indestructible community bound together by a common culture.

封建王朝时期西藏地区与内地各民族互动的历史考察

我国是一个历史悠久的统一的多民族国家,各民族多彩而独特的历史都是中国史不可分割的一部分,西藏地区自古以来就是中国疆域不可分割的一个部分。在古代中国广袤的土地上,西藏地区与内地各民族始终保持着密切的交往交流交融,密切程度随着时代的变迁而不断加深。本文通过系统探究封建王朝时期西藏地区与内地各民族互动的历史,研究发现,西藏地区各民族与内地各民族间之所以团结融合,源自于各民族文化上的兼收并蓄、经济上的相互依存、情感上的相互亲近,也源自于中华民族追求团结统一的内生动力。然而,在封建王朝时期,没有哪一个王朝能从根本上解决民族之间的平等交往与团结问题,直到新中国成立之后,在中国共产党的坚强领导下,西藏地区各民族与内地各民族的交往才真正形成了相互依存、交流融合、休戚与共的关系,各民族共同凝聚在中华民族旗帜下,中华民族共同体意识空前增强。

以铸牢中华民族共同体意识促进中华民族伟大复兴——理论逻辑、作用机制与实践路径

铸牢中华民族共同体意识是实现中华民族伟大复兴的必然要求。中华民族共同体是一个如迪尔凯姆所说的社会事实,是主观与客观的统一体,其客观存在的发展受群体主观意识的影响,这是以“铸牢”促“复兴”的理论逻辑。借鉴老子道论,中华民族共同体从意识结构上可以分为现象意识(“有感”)、物质意识(“有利”)、精神意识(“有意义”)、理论意识(“有理”)和信念意识(“有信”),分别与共同体生活中的日常交往、政治经济、文化艺术、思想理论和信念信仰同构互促,这是以“铸牢”促“复兴”的作用机制。要从中华民族“整体”视角出发全面提升共同体意识中的常人理性、经济理性、精神理性、科学理性和行动理性。少数民族问题是铸牢中华民族共同体意识的重点关注对象,但并不应该成为铸牢中华民族共同体意识的全部。只有从整体上不断做强中华民族共同体意识,才能提升少数民族群众对中华民族的向心力和凝聚力。

财政治理:以基本公共服务均等化铸牢中华民族共同体意识

基本公共服务均等化是铸牢中华民族共同体意识、扎实推动共同富裕,将中华民族基本公共服务共同体具化为各族人民积极感知的重要举措和制度安排。而财政治理是实现基本公共服务均等化的基础性、支柱性和保障性手段。构建“税收收入共建—转移支付均等共享—财政支出具体共治—基本公共服务预算保障绩效考核”全链条财政治理机制。沿着“财政治理—基本公共服务均等化—扎实推动共同富裕—铸牢中华民族共同体意识”路径,需要深化财政体制改革扭转财政过度失衡状态。提升地方政府财权使地方政府的财权与事权相匹配,完善地方政府主体税种建设加强“造血”能力,改革增值税收入纵向和横向共建制度。优化转移支付共享制度和完善转移支付与财政支出共治制度。实施财政收支纵向均等标准化和横向均等标准化,逐步实现中华民族基本公共服务的充分性和均衡性,并在此过程中嵌套各族基层群众全程参与有感表达、制度考核和社会监督,以期达成铸牢中华民族共同体意识财政治理之目的。

边境牧区推进共同富裕的实践经验、现实不足与优化路径——以内蒙古自治区X旗为例

实现共同富裕,任何一个区域、一个民族都不能少。边境牧区扎实推动共同富裕是新时期以铸牢中华民族共同体意识为主线,谱写中国式现代化新篇章的现实要求。以内蒙古自治区X旗为例,党建引领与示范带动、政策支持与自我能动、保障激励与意识促动的有机结合成为边境牧区推进共同富裕的实践经验。由于条件要素的现实制约,边境牧区面临着公共服务与引才育才衔接不畅、政策制定与牧民生计对接不精、物质富足与精神富有强弱不均的现实不足。铸牢中华民族共同体意识是党的民族工作和民族地区各项工作的主线,边境牧区推进共同富裕必须围绕这一主线展开。从增强公共服务与人才振兴的联动性、提升政策支持与边民需求的适恰性、深化物质富裕与精神富足的协同性三方面着手优化边境牧区推进共同富裕的实践路径,能够有形有感有效铸牢中华民族共同体意识。

“五史”融入学校爱国主义教育的价值及推进路径

党的二十大提出的“五史”,相对于“四史”增加了中华民族发展史,这是对中国各族人民共同开拓辽阔的疆域、共同创造悠久的历史、共同创造光辉灿烂的文化、共同缔造统一的多民族国家的肯定,可以将“五史”融入爱国主义教育中。从时间维度、内容维度、实践维度看“五史”和爱国主义教育在理论上是契合的。通过“五史”的学习,能够推动大中小学爱国主义教育一体化,帮助学生树立正确的国家观、历史观、民族观等。基于此,需要发挥课堂教育和实践教育的优势,助推大中小学生传承和弘扬爱国主义精神。

学校教育在铸牢中华民族共同体意识中的价值及其实现

铸牢中华民族共同体意识是新时代党的民族工作的主线和学校教育的着力点。学校教育在共同语言、共同交往空间、民族情感记忆、资源供给等方面为铸牢中华民族共同体意识赋能,其既为各族师生广泛开展交往交流交融营造了共同场域,又在厚植中华民族情感方面具有不可替代的重要作用。然而,当前铸牢中华民族共同体意识的学校教育实践存在推广普及国家通用语言文字不平衡不充分、教育互动方式不够多样、教学研究深度不够、教育资源配置失衡等现实困境。学校教育在铸牢中华民族共同体意识中的价值实现路径中,要坚持学校作为国家通用语言文字教育基础阵地,以语言相通促进心灵相通、命运相通;拓展学校教育互动方式,构筑各族师生广泛交往交流交融的广阔平台;加强中华民族共同体意识教育,以增强民族情感巩固中华民族共有集体记忆;扩大学校教育资源共享,夯实凝聚中华民族向心力的物质基础和精神力量。
