The Theoretical System of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era Tao Wenzhao 2023, 57 (11):  5-16.  Abstract ( )   PDF (8092KB) ( )   After a decade of development in the new era, it is the right time to summarize the theoretical system of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. The theoretical system includes basic elements such as the background of the times, major questions of the times, the main content, fundamental approach, world outlook and methodology, and historical status. The construction of the theoretical system involves inquiries such as what basic elements are selected, how to connect between elements, how to explain specific elements, what are the consensuses reached, and what problems still exist. To address these issues, it is necessary not only to be in line with the political judgments, but also take close consideration academically, so as to further deepen and expand the understanding of the theoretical system.

The Construction of Modern Civilization of the Chinese Nation through the Lens of Seeing History from a Broader Perspective Zuo Yuhe 2023, 57 (11):  17-27.  Abstract ( )   PDF (8024KB) ( )   The construction of the modern civilization of the Chinese nation in the new era is to complete the unfinished tasks of the modern transformation of the Chinese civilization and the rejuvenation of the Chinese civilization, realizing the transformation of the Chinese civilization from classical to modern form, and in the process of this modern transformation, creating the modern civilization of the Chinese nation and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The modern civilization of the Chinese nation is the modern civilization with the unique characteristics of the “Chinese nation”, the development form of the modern civilization of the “Chinese nation”, the “modern” form of the Chinese civilization, the cultural form of the Chinese path to modernization, and the highly developed socialist modern civilization with Chinese characteristics under the leadership of the Communist Party of China. To build the modern civilization of the Chinese nation in the new era, we must strengthen cultural confidence, maintain a sound cultural mindset, and develop an independent cultural psyche; we must continue to be open and inclusive and create a socialist culture with Chinese characteristics while learning from the achievements of human civilization; we must uphold fundamental principles and break new ground, correctly handle the relationship between these two elements, and carry forward the fine historical traditions with positive energy and a pioneering spirit; and we must make the past serve the present, develop the new from the old, inherit and carry forward a cultural spirit that transcends time and national boundaries and has eternal attraction and contemporary value through “creative transformation and innovative development”, and create a new form of human civilization that is different from the Western model.

Marx's Doctoral Dissertation in Solving the Problem of the Origin of the World Xin Xiangyang, Lyu Yaolong 2023, 57 (11):  38-45.  Abstract ( )   PDF (6097KB) ( )   In the development of Marx's thought, the period when Doctoral Thesis was created is an important stage for his criticism of religion. This can be seen through examining the cultural background of the time that Marx lived at, David McLellans research on Marx and the Young Hegelians, and Marxs early experience and his early writings. By putting forward the concept of the declination of the atom, Doctoral Dissertation describes the atoms that all materials consist of and the repulsion of atoms as the material conditions and conditions of movement for the declination of the atom, respectively, and significantly refuted the traditional Christian theology that asserts that God created man and solved the problem of the origin of the world. Doctoral Dissertation not only represents the general criticism Marx lodges against religion, but also established its materialist philosophical stance, laying a solid foundation for the discovery of historical materialism.

The Connotation of “Practical Rationality” and its Contemporary Significance Yan Mengwei 2023, 57 (11):  46-54.  Abstract ( )   PDF (6032KB) ( )   The discussion on the issue of practical rationality condenses all the theoretical nodes of practical philosophy, and what exactly is “practical rationality” is a prerequisite question that must first be clarified. Rationality used in practice includes two basic levels: scientific rationality and value rationality, among which value rationality is of primary importance. Practical rationality refers to the value rationality. The basic difference between practical rationality and scientific rationality is that the former involves establishing eternal, absolute, ultimately significant and ingrained value concepts in rational thinking as the universal principle and ultimate basis for guiding practical activities, through which evaluations and arguments on the rationality or legality of practical activities can be made. This value presupposition of practical rationality does not come from the induction, generalization, and abstraction of the empirical world, but from the pure rationality of man. The function of the value presupposition of practical rationality is to construct and criticize. The critical nature of Marxs practical philosophy is also based on the presupposition of the nature of human freedom, and the loss of this value presupposition will dissolve the critical nature of Marxs practical philosophy. The ideological root of the global risks or crises in the contemporary world lies in the dilution or marginalization of practical rationality, and the common values of humanity put forward by the Chinese Communists and the concept of “building a community with a shared future for mankind” on the basis are the right way to break out of the global crises.

Marx's Resolution of the Triple Contradictions in Kants Philosophy of History  Li Junshi 2023, 57 (11):  55-65.  Abstract ( )   PDF (8014KB) ( )   Kant's philosophy of history, due to its dualistic stance, has never been able to overcome the contradictions between historical inevitability and human freedom, the nonsocial and social nature of human beings, and civil constitutionalism and human morality. The ontological revolution embodied in Marxs concept of activity or practice not only opens up a new perspective on the nature of the world, but also bridges the logical gap between phenomenon and ontology, nature and freedom, and sensibility and rationality. Marxs philosophical thinking not only brings a comprehensive ontological focus to the triple contradictions in Kants philosophy of history, but also makes authentic historical materialist responses to the unity of historical laws and humans free behavior, emotional pursuit and moral progress, and external legal rights and social historical development.

In the context and field of Chinese modernization, the integration of ideological and political education embodies its own unique development logic and displays rich content. Specifically, under the requirements of pursuing the Chinese road to modernization, the integration of ideological and political education demonstrates the function of transformation, the role of value guidance, the utility of spiritual production, the value of cultivation and nurturing, and the effect of its guiding and radiating role. To explore the construction of integrated ideological and political education from the perspective of the Chinese path to modernization, it is necessary to develop a collaborative model with advancing the Chinese path to modernization as the goal and theme, improve the service level amidst the significant advantages of the Chinese path to modernization, and enhance the scientific and technological support using intelligent technology in the pursuit of the Chinese path of modernization.

On the Influence Mechanism of the Investment and Financing Systems with Chinese Characteristics to Ensure Financial Stability Zhang Hongbo, Zhu Andong 2023, 57 (11):  75-91.  Abstract ( )   PDF (12198KB) ( )   The level of economic and financial risk and instability in the world is increasing recently, and ensuring the stability of economy and finance has become a huge challenge for all countries. Based on the analysis of financial instability by Marx and Minsky, this paper investigates the counteradjustment effect of the investment and financing systems with Chinese characteristics led by the Stateowned economic sector on financial instability. First, the investment and financing process led by the Stateowned economic sector directly boosts economic growth and ensures relative economic and financial stability by promoting growth. Second, Stateowned bank loans create a large quantity of bank deposits, which flow into the residential sector along with the investment of Stateowned enterprises, becoming an important form of wealth for residents and enterprises. This form of wealth is less volatile than financial products created by private credit activities such as stocks, bonds and derivatives. Meanwhile, risk of bank deposits is mostly borne by banks, and the banking system dominated by Stateowned banks is backed by national credit and has a higher level of risk tolerance, providing stability in the financial market. Finally, Stateowned enterprises serve the national strategy rather than aiming to maximize profits in investment and production. They can expand aggregate demand by reverse investment during the transmission of the financial crisis to the real economy and form a hedge against debt default and deflation caused by the transmission, thereby playing an important role in stabilizing the real economy. The investment and financing systems with Chinese characteristics supported by national credit, together with the governments financial policies, constitute an important guarantee for the countrys relative financial stability and are an important part of the Chinese path to modernization. Facing the increasing instability in the world, it is necessary to give full play to the important role of the investment and financing systems in stabilizing the economy and finance, and continue to adhere to the development path of pursuing the Chinese path to modernization.  Related Articles | Metrics

The Three-fold Dimension of the Construction of the Discourse System of the First-level Disciplinary of the Chinese Communist Party History and Party Building Xie Zhangdian, Chen Jinlong 2023, 57 (11):  92-100.  Abstract ( )   PDF (6326KB) ( )   The establishment of the firstlevel discipline of the Chinese Communist Party history and Party building puts forward new higher requirements for the construction of the disciplinary discourse system. In the context of firstlevel disciplines, the construction of the discourse system of the Chinese Communist Party history and Party building must clarify the three goals of speech and follow the threedimensional narrative logic: (1) to clarify the goal of “having substance in speech”, and follow the factual logic of the construction of the discourse system of the Chinese Communist Party history and Party building; (2) to clarify the goal of “speaking in a rational way”, and follow the cognitive logic of the construction of the discourse system of the Chinese Communist Party history and Party building; and (3) to clarify the goal of “speaking with affection”, and follow the value logic of the construction of the discourse system of the Chinese Communist Party history and Party building.

On the Compatibility between Patriotism and Cosmopolitanism Gao Jingzhu 2023, 57 (11):  101-109.  Abstract ( )   PDF (6566KB) ( )   There is usually a tension between patriotism and cosmopolitanism. Actually, there is a possibility of compatibility between a certain version of patriotism and that of cosmopolitanism. The moderate patriotism of “just patriotism” is compatible with the moderate cosmopolitanism of “moral cosmopolitanism”. Using just patriotism to discuss how patriotism and cosmopolitanism are compatible does not mean that citizens will develop patriotic feelings towards other countries that have similar characteristics as theirs. Cosmopolitanism creates limiting boundaries for patriotism. Once contextual justice is achieved, there is no proper reason to reject the partiality of patriotism. At the same time, the practice of cosmopolitanism should also be constrained by patriotism. Related Articles | Metrics

Hedging in International Relations: Research Progress and Enlightenment Han Zhaoying, Li Yuan 2023, 57 (11):  110-124.  Abstract ( )   PDF (11065KB) ( )   As the traditional balancingbandwagoning dichotomy becomes increasingly difficult to describe the complex and diverse strategic behavioral choices of states, the concept of hedging originating from finance has attracted increasing attention in the field of international relations. Scholars have conducted indepth research on the core connotation, specific forms, causes and evolution of hedging strategies. To address limitations of the application of the hedging concept, it is significant to return to its original meaning in finance and revising it based on the experience and characteristics of international relations to achieve a conceptual transformation for interdisciplinary reference. On the basis of a clear definition of hedging strategies, future research should focus on the following issues: expanding the cases of hedging research from spatial and temporal perspectives, clarifying the prerequisites for the implementation of hedging strategies, focusing on “outcomeside” issues such as hedging success or failure and the impact of hedging, and paying attention to the dynamic changes of hedging implementation against the background of the escalation of competition among major powers and the use of multivariate methods in hedging research. The introduction of the hedging concept provides a significant perspective for understanding the strategic choices of states in the era of great power competition and sheds light on Chinas foreign policy and the study of its international relations.
