Author: Tao Xidong
The history of human development is a history of civilization evolution in which multiple civilizations have developed together. The continuous civilization of the Chinese nation for over five thousand years has laid the foundation for maintaining the unity of the Chinese people, and has become the spiritual support for the continuous rejuvenation of the Chinese nation through countless difficulties and dangers.He emphasized that "continuing to promote cultural prosperity, build a strong cultural nation, and build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation from a new starting point is our new cultural mission in the new era. We must strengthen cultural confidence, shoulder our mission, and work together to create a new culture that belongs to our era, and build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation.". This has injected strong cultural appeal and spiritual power into the whole Party, the whole army and the people of all ethnic groups in China to adhere to the "two combinations", strengthen cultural self-confidence, and comprehensively promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese path to modernization.
Today, China is already a populous and economic country with an urbanization level of over 60%. To build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation, cities will inevitably play an important role as carriers, actors, builders, and showcases of Chinese civilization. Comprehensively promoting the inheritance of excellent traditional Chinese culture, innovating and promoting mutual learning and inclusive development of diverse civilizations in a great civilized city will also become a major task for the construction and development of major cities in China. A civilized city should have a certain degree of material and spiritual civilization, among which material civilization mainly refers to the development of urban infrastructure, environmental sanitation, public transportation, etc., while spiritual civilization is reflected in the improvement of urban public morality, cultural education, and other aspects. Accelerating the construction of urban civilization requires five key actions to be taken:
One is to comprehensively implement the strategy of urban revitalization and renewal, and accelerate the construction of a historic city. Chinese civilization has a long and enduring history. The countless historical and cultural relics and intangible cultural heritage left by our ancestors are not only important symbols of Chinese civilization, but also the cultural foundation for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. As the main body of modern civilization construction for the Chinese nation, cities should implement a cultural oriented urban renewal strategy and solidly carry out systematic protection, innovative activation and utilization of urban intangible cultural heritage. Transforming historical and cultural sites into cultural venues such as museums and art exhibition halls, providing visitors with an immersive visiting experience, and creating a number of traditional cultural highlands such as urban museums, art galleries, and cultural palaces with high quality and level; Transforming historical and cultural sites, old factories, etc. into commercial blocks, art blocks, cultural blocks, and innovation blocks, creating high-quality public cultural spaces, and promoting economic development through cultural development; By promoting publicity and urban planning, we aim to promote the inheritance and development of historical and cultural heritage, enhance the visibility and sustainability of historical and cultural sites. While protecting historical and cultural sites, we will gradually repair and update facilities to better meet the needs of contemporary cities, and strive to let more ancient Chinese civilization capitals shine with the glory of their past civilization.
The second is to comprehensively implement the traditional performing arts innovation strategy and accelerate the construction of a performing arts city. In the development of human civilization, the performing arts industry, mainly focused on music concerts, dramas, traditional Chinese opera, song and dance, is not only an important form and carrier of civilization, but also an important observation point reflecting the level of modern civilization. For example, concerts in Vienna, plays in London, musicals in New York, fashion shows in Paris, etc., cultural performance is an important engine for urban economic development and cultural innovation. In the process of building modern civilization of the Chinese nation, in addition to vigorously developing the latest, most trendy, and modern performing arts such as modern symphonies, modern concerts, modern song and dance, and modern drama, the government should also attach great importance to the development of local and ethnic performing arts that belong to Chinese culture, increase funding and policy support, promote the professional development of opera, and increase the training of opera talents; Plan and construct a number of high-level professional venues and performance venues for traditional Chinese opera, enhance public awareness and understanding of traditional Chinese opera culture, encourage more young people to learn and inherit traditional Chinese opera culture, explore traditional Chinese opera culture tourism and cultural derivatives to increase economic benefits and popularity, and continuously expand the influence of Chinese opera in the market.
The third is to implement the strategy of flourishing philosophy and social sciences, and accelerate the construction of a city of thought. Our cities should regard the prosperity and development of philosophy and social sciences as a major strategy, steadily increase research funding for philosophy and social sciences, establish and improve talent incentive and growth mechanisms and education and training systems that conform to scientific research laws, and support free innovation and research of talents; To build a group of world-renowned and world-class universities, research institutes, think tanks, and media institutions at a high level, especially to support the compilation of historical collections and "rare knowledge" exploring the origin of Chinese civilization, so that Chinese civilization can be recorded, inherited, and disseminated; Cultivate a group of thought masters covering philosophy, political economy, sociology, law, geography, aesthetics and other disciplines, actively carry out international cultural exchanges, export influential and weighty ideas to the world, tell a good story about Chinese path to modernization and the modern civilization of the Chinese nation, and improve the world dissemination and influence of Chinese civilization.
The fourth is to comprehensively implement the strategy of technological self-reliance and self-improvement, and accelerate the construction of a leading city. The evolution from agricultural society to industrial society and network society indicates that the invention, creation, and deep application of technology are a core element that affects the form and level of human civilization. The the Four Great Inventions of the Chinese nation are the best examples. Today's new materials, new energy, aerospace, biopharmaceuticals, artificial intelligence, etc. represent new forms and trends in the development of future civilization. China's cities, especially some large cities and mega cities with concentrated talents and obvious technological advantages, should stand at the mission and height of leading the global trend of scientific and technological development, focus on the needs of human development and national development, adhere to facing the forefront of world science and technology, the main battlefield of the economy, the major needs of the country, and the life and health of the people, strategically layout a number of major industrial spaces, research and development source centers, technological innovation centers, and talent growth centers for technological self-reliance and self-reliance, and accelerate the construction of important talent centers and innovation highlands in the world; Adhere to the integrated deployment of innovation chain, industry chain, and talent chain, promote deep integration, promote high-quality development of basic research, solve bottleneck problems, and accelerate the pace of technological self-reliance and self-improvement.
The fifth is to comprehensively implement the citizen civilization action strategy and accelerate the construction of a city of etiquette. Human beings are the core and carrier of culture, and their cultural literacy and behavior are the true charm of culture and civilization. At present, as China becomes a world economic and comprehensive power, strengthening the cultivation and improvement of national cultural literacy in all aspects, shaping "great nation citizens" and "big city citizens" that are suitable for the status of a great country and a big city, showcasing the inherent humanistic cultivation and cultural qualities of excellent traditional Chinese culture, is the only way to build modern civilization of the Chinese nation. For this reason, urban construction needs to make greater efforts, leverage the advantages of traditional cultural resources, continuously promote the self-cultivation actions of citizens, and let Chinese virtues such as benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, trustworthiness, kindness, respect, and frugality flow in the blood of every people, reflected in the conscious actions of every individual, and showcase the charm and ability of modern Chinese civilization with unique characteristics of traditional Chinese culture.
