I. Valuable Experience in the Construction and Development of the Discipline of Ideological and Political Education

一、思想政治教育学科建设发展的宝贵经验

Ideological and political education is a discipline concerning human beings. This human-centered nature determines that it cannot be separated from the overall cultural environment in which people live. As the spiritual lifeline and cultural genes of the Chinese nation, fine traditional Chinese culture contains rich resources for ideological and political education, providing abundant intellectual nourishment for the innovative development of ideological and political education.

思想政治教育是关于人的学问，这种属人的性质决定了其无法脱离人所处的整体文化环境。作为中华民族的精神血脉和文化基因，中华优秀传统文化中蕴含着丰富的思想政治教育资源，为思想政治教育创新发展提供了丰厚的思想养料。

The integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education is an inevitable requirement for deepening the historical and cultural origins of the discipline of ideological and political education. Fine traditional Chinese culture ensures the continuity and stability of the cultural characteristics of the Chinese nation. The core concepts, humanistic spirit, and moral norms it contains, whether in the past or the present, have their distinct national characteristics and their never-fading contemporary value. Together, they shape the prominent features of Chinese civilization and also profoundly lay the historical and cultural foundation of the discipline of ideological and political education. As a product of human educational activities reaching a certain stage of development, ideological and political education universally exists in the historical process of class society and develops along with history. From the transformation and evolution of ideological and political education in ancient China, to the innovative development of ideological and political education by the Communist Party of China, and then to the construction and development of the discipline of ideological and political education, ideological and political education has always focused on the fundamental question of “what kind of people to cultivate, how to cultivate them, and for whom to cultivate them,” [1]1 "Root" (根脉, genmai) refers to the foundational cultural and theoretical source of the Party's innovation, as opposed to the "soul" (马克思主义) of Marxism. This metaphor is part of the discourse on the "Two Integrations" (两个结合), where Marxism is integrated with China's specific realities and its fine traditional culture. centered on the central task and serving the overall situation, accumulating rich and valuable historical achievements.

中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展是深化思想政治教育学科历史文化渊源的必然要求。中华优秀传统文化保证了中华民族文化特质的连续性和稳定性，其中蕴含的核心观念、人文精神、道德规范，不论过去还是现在，都有其鲜明的民族特色，都有其永不褪色的时代价值，它们共同塑造出中华文明的突出特性，也深刻奠定了思想政治教育学科的历史文化根基。思想政治教育作为人类教育活动发展到一定阶段的产物，其普遍存在于阶级社会发展的历史进程中，并随着历史的发展而发展。从中国古代思想政治教育的变迁转化，到中国共产党思想政治教育的创新发展，再到思想政治教育学科的建设发展，思想政治教育始终聚焦“培养什么人、怎样培养人、为谁培养人”这一根本问题，围绕中心、服务大局，积淀了丰厚宝贵的历史成果。

The integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education is an inherent requirement for strengthening education in fine traditional Chinese culture. The Communist Party of China is both an active leader and practitioner of China’s advanced culture

中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展是加强中华优秀传统文化教育的应有之义。中国共产党既是中国先进文化的积极引领者和践行者，又是中华优秀传统文化的忠实继承者和弘扬者。纵观中国共产党百余年历史，自觉把马克思主义基本原理同中华优秀传统文化相结合，高度重视中华优秀传统文化教育，始终是党和国家关注的重要问题。同时，思想政治工作是我们党的优良传统、鲜明特色和突出政治优势，是一切工作的生命线。思想政治工作适应各个不同历史阶段的需要，克服和纠正了各种错误思想的影响，有效发挥了统一思想、凝聚共识、鼓舞斗志、团结奋斗的重要作用。可以说，中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育的融合发展是我们党理论创新与实践创造的必然结果，是加强中华优秀传统文化教育的应有之义。

The integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education is a practical necessity for promoting the innovative development of the discipline of ideological and political education. Reviewing the history of the development of the discipline of ideological and political education, fine traditional Chinese culture has always been deeply involved in the construction of the discipline of ideological and political education and has always helped to construct the independent knowledge system of the discipline of ideological and political education. From the perspective of the theoretical origins of ideological and political education, ideological and political education is a scientific summary of the practical experience and theoretical achievements of ideological and political education in human history, especially in the history of our Party. As the "root" [1]1 "Root" (根脉, genmai) refers to the foundational cultural and theoretical source of the Party's innovation, as opposed to the "soul" (马克思主义) of Marxism. This metaphor is part of the discourse on the "Two Integrations" (两个结合), where Marxism is integrated with China's specific realities and its fine traditional culture. of our Party's theoretical innovation, fine traditional Chinese culture is the historical and cultural foundation of the development of ideological and political education. From the perspective of the history of ancient Chinese ideological and political education, the history of ancient Chinese ideological and political education is an important component of the history of ideological and political education (the history of the discipline's development). Conducting in-depth research on the resource status and value of fine traditional Chinese culture from the perspective of the discipline of ideological and political education, enhancing the distinctiveness of research in the discipline of ideological and political education, and presenting the value of fine traditional Chinese culture for ideological and political education as a whole not only helps the practice of ideological and political education development to draw energy from fine traditional Chinese culture but also helps fine traditional Chinese culture to gain new vitality in practice.

中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展是推动思想政治教育学科创新发展的现实需要。回顾思想政治教育学科发展史，中华优秀传统文化始终深度参与思想政治教育学科建设，始终助力建构思想政治教育学科自主知识体系。从思想政治教育理论渊源的角度来看，思想政治教育是对人类历史上尤其是我们党的历史上思想政治教育实践经验与理论成果的科学总结，作为我们党理论创新“根脉”的中华优秀传统文化是思想政治教育发展的历史文化底蕴。从中国古代思想政治教育史的角度来看，中国古代思想政治教育史是思想政治教育史（学科发展史）的重要组成部分，从思想政治教育学科视角对中华优秀传统文化的资源地位与价值进行深入研究，提升思想政治教育学科研究的辨识度，整体呈现中华优秀传统文化的思想政治教育价值，既有助于思想政治教育发展实践从中华优秀传统文化中获取能量，又有助于中华优秀传统文化在实践中获得新的生命力。

II. The Institutional Start of the Integrated Development of Fine Traditional Chinese Culture and Ideological and Political Education

二、中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展的建制起步

In the early 1980s, a nationwide discussion on the scientification of ideological and political work was launched, proposing that "ideological and political work should become a science," which sparked a heated debate on the disciplinization of ideological and political education. Ideological and political education workers carried out pioneering explorations on the major issue of how to establish the discipline of ideological and political education and achieve the scientification of ideological and political education. Especially with the formal establishment of the specialty of ideological and political education in 1984, the construction of the discipline of ideological and political education gained a basic guarantee and support. The research field of the discipline of ideological and political education, oriented by basic theoretical research and driven by applied research, showed a trend of continuous expansion and deepening. With the construction and development of the discipline of ideological and political education, fine traditional Chinese culture, which had previously been discussed from the perspective of theoretical origins or intellectual history, once again received attention from ideological and political education workers. Moving from spontaneity to consciousness, from dispersion to relative concentration, the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education formally began its institutional start.

20世纪80年代初，全国范围内展开了关于思想政治工作科学化的讨论，提出“思想政治工作要成为一门科学”，掀起了思想政治教育学科化的热议。思想政治教育工作者就如何建立思想政治教育学科、实现思想政治教育科学化这一重大课题开展了开拓性探索。尤其是1984年思想政治教育专业的正式创立，思想政治教育学科建设有了基本保证和依托，思想政治教育学科研究领域以基础理论研究为导向、以应用研究为牵引，呈现出不断扩大和深化的发展趋势。随着思想政治教育学科的建设发展，此前作为理论渊源或从思想史视角加以探讨的中华优秀传统文化再次得到思想政治教育工作者的关注，从自发到自觉、从分散到相对集中，中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展正式建制起步。

At this stage, the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education was mainly carried out around topics such as socialist cultural-ethical progress, the national spirit, and disciplinary construction. First, it highlighted the important position of fine traditional Chinese culture in socialist cultural-ethical progress. Research on the correlation between socialist cultural-ethical progress and fine traditional Chinese culture became an important area of focus for the discipline of ideological and political education during this period. On the basis of clarifying a scientific attitude towards fine traditional Chinese culture, adhering to the principles of critical inheritance, discarding the dross and selecting the essence, comprehensive innovation, and making the past serve the present, it deepened the role of fine traditional Chinese culture in promoting socialist cultural-ethical progress. Second, it elucidated the logical connection between promoting fine traditional Chinese culture and cultivating the Chinese national spirit. Fine traditional Chinese culture is the crystallization of the ideological wisdom and historical culture of the Chinese nation and the matrix that gives birth to the Chinese national spirit. Elucidating the internal logic between the Chinese national spirit and fine traditional Chinese culture became an important topic in the discipline of ideological and political education. Third, it constructed an ideological framework for the study of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education. On the one hand, macro-level research on the history of Chinese moral education thought was carried out. Using the evolutionary thread of intellectual history as a clue, it discussed the moral education thoughts of different schools of thought and typical figures in different historical periods. Vertically, it covered the periodization of thought from primitive society to the Ming and Qing dynasties and the modern transformation of intellectual history; horizontally, it centered on Confucian moral education thought, while also taking into account schools of thought such as Mohism, Daoism, and Legalism. On the other hand, it focused on systematic research on Confucian moral education thought. Based on the practical needs of ideological and political education, it shifted from a historical review of the history of moral education thought to an examination of modern value, deeply excavating the contemporary value of fine traditional Chinese culture.

这一阶段中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展，主要依托于社会主义精神文明建设、民族精神、学科建设等议题展开。第一，凸显中华优秀传统文化在社会主义精神文明建设中的重要地位。社会主义精神文明建设与中华优秀传统文化的关联性研究成为这一时期思想政治教育学科关注的重要领域，在明确对待中华优秀传统文化科学态度的基础上，坚持批判继承、弃糟取精、综合创新、古为今用的方针，深化中华优秀传统文化对于社会主义精神文明建设的促进作用。第二，阐明弘扬中华优秀传统文化与培育中华民族精神的逻辑关联。中华优秀传统文化是中华民族思想智慧和历史文化的结晶，是孕育中华民族精神的母体。阐明中华民族精神与中华优秀传统文化的内在逻辑成为思想政治教育学科的重要课题。第三，建构中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育研究的思想框架。一方面，开展中国德育思想史的宏观研究。以思想史的演进脉络作为线索，讨论不同历史时期不同思想流派与典型人物的德育思想。在纵向上，关涉自原始社会至明清之际的思想分期以及思想史的近现代转型；在横向上，以儒家德育思想为中心，兼顾墨、道、法等思想流派。另一方面，聚焦儒家德育思想的系统研究。基于思想政治教育的现实需要，从德育思想史的历史梳理转向现代价值的考察，深入挖掘中华优秀传统文化的当代价值。

It should be pointed out that, because this was the initial period of the discipline of ideological and political education, research on the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education at this stage relatively lacked a comprehensive research perspective. The research content was primarily focused on the history of Chinese moral education thought. Based on the evolutionary thread of intellectual history, it explored the moral education thought of different schools of thought and typical figures in different periods, emphasizing the sorting and interpretation of the history of Chinese moral education thought and its historical value. The research perspective took “moral education” as the core concept. It tended to use “moral education” rather than “ideological and political education” as the keyword, making it difficult to strictly distinguish from disciplines such as the history of Chinese philosophy and the history of traditional Chinese ethical thought, and to a certain extent there was a tendency to blur the disciplinary stance of ideological and political education. However, it is undeniable that the in-depth excavation at this stage of the ideological and political education resources contained in fine traditional Chinese culture broadened the research horizon of the history of ideological and political education and initially established the research trend of the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education.

需要指出的是，由于处于思想政治教育学科的初创时期，这一阶段关于中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展的研究相对缺乏较为全面的研究视角。研究内容以中国德育思想史为主。基于思想史的演进脉络，探讨不同时期不同思想流派与典型人物的德育思想，偏重对于中国德育思想史及其历史价值的梳理和阐释。研究视角以“德育”作为核心概念。倾向于以“德育”而非“思想政治教育”为关键词，难以同中国哲学史、中国传统伦理思想史等学科严格区分，一定程度上存在模糊思想政治教育学科立场的倾向。但是不可否认，这一阶段关于中华优秀传统文化蕴含的思想政治教育资源的深入挖掘，拓宽了思想政治教育史的研究视野，初步奠定了中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展的研究态势。

III. The Deepening and Expansion of the Integrated Development of Fine Traditional Chinese Culture and Ideological and Political Education

三、中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展的深化拓展

In December 2005, in accordance with the Central Committee’s decision to implement the Marxist Theory Research and Construction Project, the Academic Degrees Committee of the State Council and the Ministry of Education issued the “Notice on Adjusting and Adding the First-Level Discipline of Marxist Theory and Its Subordinate Second-Level Disciplines,” adding the first-level discipline of Marxist Theory, with ideological and political education and other disciplines becoming second-level disciplines. [2]2 The Marxist Theory Research and Construction Project (马克思主义理论研究和建设工程) is a major theoretical project launched by the CPC Central Committee in 2004 to strengthen the study, dissemination, and education of Marxism in China, including the restructuring of academic disciplines. Workers in ideological and political education more clearly recognized the characteristics and mission of disciplinary construction in ideological and political education, more consciously carried out theoretical research on ideological and political education, and deepened research on frontier issues in the construction of the discipline of ideological and political education from dimensions such as cultural heritage, roots and origins, and content reference, promoting the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education. It can be said that the adjustment of disciplinary affiliation provided an independent theoretical research platform for ideological and political education, greatly stimulated the initiative and creativity in conducting research on the construction of the discipline of ideological and political education, and also promoted the deepening and expansion of the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education.

2005年12月，根据中央实施马克思主义理论研究和建设工程的决定，国务院学位委员会、教育部颁布《关于调整增设马克思主义理论一级学科及所属二级学科的通知》，增设马克思主义理论一级学科，思想政治教育等学科成为二级学科。思想政治教育工作者更为明确地认识到思想政治教育学科建设的特点和使命，更加自觉地开展思想政治教育理论研究，从文化底蕴、根源本源、内容借鉴等维度，深化思想政治教育学科建设前沿问题研究，推动中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展。可以说，学科归属调整为思想政治教育提供了独立的理论研究平台，极大地激发了开展思想政治教育学科建设研究的积极性和创造性，也推动了中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展的深化拓展。

At this stage, the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education was mainly carried out by relying on the advancement of ideological and political education theory and practice, presented in forms such as thematic research and curriculum construction. First, the research domain of the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education initially took shape. On the one hand, from the perspective of content excavation, it used the ideological concepts, humanistic spirit, and moral norms contained in fine traditional Chinese culture to analyze students’ ideological confusion, moral loss, and cultural disorientation, stimulating students’ national cultural confidence and pride. On the other hand, from the perspective of transmission carriers, it regarded ideological and political education as the main carrier for inheriting and promoting fine traditional Chinese culture, strengthening research on the functional value of ideological and political education in empowering cultural heritage and development. Second, a research perspective on fine traditional Chinese culture and the socialist core value system was opened up. The socialist core value system is a theoretical innovation based on inheriting fine traditional Chinese culture, and vigorously cultivating the socialist core value system became a key topic in ideological and political education research at that time. Third, the disciplinary stance and research characteristics of the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education were continuously clarified. On the one hand, adhering to the guidance of Marxism highlighted its distinct disciplinary stance, laying an ideological foundation for the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education. On the other hand, the discipline of ideological and political education insisted on using fine traditional Chinese culture as a resource, reflecting its disciplinary characteristics, and providing rich ideological nourishment for constructing the theoretical and practical system of ideological and political education.

这一阶段中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展，主要是依托思想政治教育理论和实践的推进，以专题研究、课程建设等相关形式呈现。第一，中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展的研究论域初步成型。一方面，从内容挖掘的角度出发，以中华优秀传统文化蕴含的思想观念、人文精神、道德规范，分析学生的思想困惑、道德失落与文化迷茫问题，激发学生的民族文化自信心和自豪感。另一方面，从传承载体的角度出发，视思想政治教育为继承和弘扬中华优秀传统文化的主要载体，强化思想政治教育赋能文化传承发展的功能价值研究。第二，中华优秀传统文化与社会主义核心价值体系研究视角的开辟。社会主义核心价值体系是在继承中华优秀传统文化基础上的理论创新，大力培育社会主义核心价值体系成为当时思想政治教育研究的重点课题。第三，中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展的学科立场、研究特色不断明确。一方面，坚持以马克思主义为指导，凸显其鲜明的学科立场，为中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展奠定思想基石。另一方面，思想政治教育学科坚持以中华优秀传统文化为资源，体现其学科特色，为构建思想政治教育理论和实践体系提供丰厚思想养料。

Building on the previous stage of research, the adjustment of disciplinary affiliation at this stage clarified the disciplinary foundation for the construction and development of ideological and political education, empowering the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education. The research domain shifted from systematic to in-depth. Systematic research focusing on the history of Chinese moral education thought continued to deepen, while thematic and case-study research on fine traditional Chinese culture also received attention and advancement. The research perspective shifted from unitary to pluralistic. Based on the disciplinary stance of ideological and political education, and on the basis of fully focusing on and studying core concepts such as “moral education” and “ideological and political education,” research perspectives using keywords such as “ideological and theoretical education,” “ideological and moral education,” and “psychology of ideological and political education” continuously emerged, effectively expanding the research horizon of ideological and political education. The research approach shifted from academic to practical. While further consolidating the history of ancient Chinese ideological and political education, it strengthened the practical orientation of fine traditional Chinese culture from dimensions such as policy formulation and curriculum construction, and at the same time, based on theoretical demands in the ideological sphere, deepened the resource value of fine traditional Chinese culture.

在前一阶段研究基础上，这一阶段学科归属调整明确了思想政治教育建设发展的学科依托，赋能中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展。研究论域从系统向精深转变。着眼于中国德育思想史的系统性研究持续深化，同时关于中华优秀传统文化的专题式、个案式研究也得到关注和推进。研究视角从单元向多元转变。立足于思想政治教育学科立场，在充分关注和研究“德育”“思想政治教育”等核心概念的基础上，以“思想理论教育”“思想道德教育”“思想政治教育心理学”等为关键词的研究视角不断出现，有效拓展了思想政治教育的研究视域。研究进路从学术向实践转变。在进一步夯实中国古代思想政治教育史的同时，从政策制定、课程建设等维度强化中华优秀传统文化的实践指向，同时基于意识形态领域的理论诉求，深化中华优秀传统文化的资源性价值。

IV. The Comprehensive Advancement of the Integrated Development of Fine Traditional Chinese Culture and Ideological and Political Education

四、中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展的全面推进

Since the 18th National Congress of the CPC, General Secretary Xi Jinping, standing at the strategic height of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and the eternal inheritance of Chinese civilization, has delivered a series of important discourses on fine traditional Chinese culture. [3]3 The 18th National Congress of the CPC was held in 2012, marking the beginning of the New Era under Xi Jinping’s leadership. These new theses and new thoughts further deepened the CPC’s scientific understanding of fine traditional Chinese culture, elevated the new height of socialist culture with Chinese characteristics, and at the same time pointed out the contemporary direction for the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education. It can be said that since the 18th National Congress of the CPC, the Party and the state have attached great importance to fine traditional Chinese culture, comprehensively advancing the research progress of the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education, and thickening the theoretical depth of the development of the discipline of ideological and political education.

党的十八大以来，习近平总书记站在中华民族伟大复兴和中华文明永续传承的战略高度，发表了系列关于中华优秀传统文化的重要论述。这些新论断和新思想进一步深化了中国共产党对于中华优秀传统文化的科学认识，提升了中国特色社会主义文化的新高度，同时也指明了中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展的时代方向。可以说，党的十八大以来，党和国家对于中华优秀传统文化的高度重视，全面推进了中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展的研究进度，厚实了思想政治教育学科发展的理论深度。

At this stage, the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education, based on in-depth research and interpretation of Xi Jinping’s important discourses on fine traditional Chinese culture, expanded to dimensions such as the inheritance and development of fine traditional Chinese culture, core socialist values, and the high-quality development of ideological and political theory courses. First, expansion and deepening at the level of the inheritance and development of fine traditional Chinese culture. The proposal of the major thesis of the “Two Integrations” further promoted the creative transformation and innovative development of fine traditional Chinese culture, as well as the deepening of its integrated development with ideological and political education. [4]4 The “Two Integrations” (两个结合) refers to the integration of the basic tenets of Marxism with China’s specific realities and with fine traditional Chinese culture, a key theoretical formulation by Xi Jinping. On the one hand, fine traditional Chinese culture provides cultural resources for ideological and political education; on the other hand, ideological and political education plays a promoting role in protecting, inheriting, and developing fine traditional Chinese culture. Second, expansion and deepening at the level of research on theoretical issues such as core socialist values. In-depth excavation of the fine traditional Chinese cultural heritage of core socialist values was an important task for ideological and political education research during this period. At the same time, strengthening fine traditional Chinese culture education based on the discipline of ideological and political education received widespread attention and in-depth research at this stage. Of course, a series of achievements also deeply explored the ideological and political education implications of traditional family instructions, traditional village regulations and folk conventions, enriching the research content of the history of ideological and political education from different angles. Third, expansion and deepening at the level of reform and innovation in ideological and political theory courses. Promoting the integration of fine traditional Chinese culture into education and teaching is an inherent requirement for the reform and innovation of ideological and political courses. Research was conducted to compile guidelines for integrating fine traditional Chinese culture into course textbooks, and book lists were drawn up for Marxist classic works, contemporary Chinese Marxist theory works, and fine traditional Chinese culture classics, providing strong support for the organic integration of fine traditional Chinese culture into ideological and political theory courses.

这一阶段，中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展在深入研究阐释习近平关于中华优秀传统文化重要论述的基础上，拓展到中华优秀传统文化的传承发展、社会主义核心价值观、思想政治理论课的高质量发展等维度。第一，在中华优秀传统文化传承发展层面的拓展与深化。“两个结合”重大论断的提出，进一步推动中华优秀传统文化创造性转化、创新性发展，以及与思想政治教育融合发展的深化。一方面，中华优秀传统文化为思想政治教育提供文化资源；另一方面，思想政治教育对保护、传承和发展中华优秀传统文化具有促进作用。第二，在社会主义核心价值观等理论问题研究层面的拓展与深化。深入挖掘社会主义核心价值观的中华优秀传统文化底蕴是这一时期思想政治教育研究的重要任务。同时，立足于思想政治教育学科强化中华优秀传统文化教育在这一阶段进一步得到广泛关注和深化研究。当然，也有系列成果深入探讨了传统家训、传统乡规民约等思想政治教育意蕴，从不同角度丰富思想政治教育史的研究内容。第三，在思想政治理论课改革创新层面的拓展与深化。推动中华优秀传统文化融入教育教学是思政课改革创新的应有之义，研究编制中华优秀传统文化进课程教材指南，开列马克思主义经典著作、当代中国马克思主义理论著作、中华优秀传统文化典籍书单，为中华优秀传统文化有机融入思想政治理论课提供了有力支撑。

Overall, under the guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, especially General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important discourses on fine traditional Chinese culture, the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education has entered a stage of comprehensive advancement. The research horizon has further broadened. Systematic and theoretical research on General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important discourses on fine traditional Chinese culture has deepened, and the role of fine traditional Chinese culture in contemporary propositions such as cultivating and practicing core socialist values and promoting the Chinese spirit has significantly increased in effectiveness. The integration of fine traditional Chinese culture into ideological and political theory course education and teaching has advanced comprehensively. The research domain has further refined. A trend from holistic research toward detailed discussion has become prominent, with thematic research content presented systematically, expanding the research content of the discipline of ideological and political education to varying degrees. The research approach has further grounded itself. The theoretical consciousness of responding to major theoretical and practical issues through academic research has been highly elevated. Adhering to the combination of theoretical analysis and practical concern, fine traditional Chinese culture is used to address key and difficult issues in the practice of ideological and moral construction, in the actual work of ideological and political work, and in the daily study and life of young people.

总得来说，在习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想，尤其是习近平总书记关于中华优秀传统文化重要论述的指引下，中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展迈入全面推进阶段。研究视野进一步开阔。习近平总书记关于中华优秀传统文化重要论述的学理化、体系化研究系统深入，中华优秀传统文化在培育和践行社会主义核心价值观、弘扬中国精神等时代命题上的作用发挥显著增效，中华优秀传统文化融入思政课教育教学整体推进。研究论域进一步精细。从整体性研究转向精细化讨论的研究趋势凸显，以专题式的研究内容系统呈现，不同程度地拓展了思想政治教育学科的研究内容。研究进路进一步落地。以学术研究回应重大理论和实践问题的理论自觉高度提升，坚持理论分析与实践关怀相结合，用中华优秀传统文化回应思想道德建设实践中、思想政治工作实际中、青少年日常学习生活中的重难点问题。

V. Promoting the Integration and Interconnection of Fine Traditional Chinese Culture and Ideological and Political Education at a New Historical Starting Point

五、在新的历史起点上推动中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合贯通

Standing at the historical juncture of the 40th anniversary of the discipline of ideological and political education, and based on the historical experience of the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education, to further condense and deepen the disciplinary direction of “fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education” and to promote the innovative development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education, it is necessary to take Xi Jinping Thought on Culture as the guide, follow the Two Integrations, and strive to construct a knowledge system for the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education.

站在思想政治教育学科40年的历史节点，以中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展的历史经验为基础，进一步凝练深化“中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育”这一学科方向，推动中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育创新发展，需要以习近平文化思想为引领，以“两个结合”为遵循，着力建构中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展的知识体系。

First, take Xi Jinping Thought on Culture as the guide to grasp the new requirements for the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education. On the one hand, from the height of the Party’s regular understanding of theoretical innovation, give full play to the important role of ideological and political education in establishing the mind and soul. Correctly handle the relationship between history and reality, tradition and modernity, grasp the connection between fine traditional Chinese culture and the Party’s innovative theories, clearly explain that fine traditional Chinese culture is the “root vein” of the Party’s theoretical innovation, educate people to respect fine traditional Chinese culture, and continuously strengthen people’s cultural identification with the Party’s innovative theories. On the other hand, based on the perspective of building the common spiritual home of the Chinese nation, consolidate the cultural mission of ideological and political education to inherit and carry forward. Based on a grand historical perspective, highlight cultural value from the perspective of the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education, explore the ideals and beliefs, value orientations, ideological concepts, and social customs of the Chinese nation, and consolidate the cultural foundation of the common spiritual home of the Chinese nation.

第一，以习近平文化思想为引领，把握中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展新要求。一方面，站在党理论创新的规律性认识的高度，发挥思想政治教育立心立魂的重要作用。正确处理历史与现实、传统与现代之间的关系，把握中华优秀传统文化与党的创新理论的关联，讲清楚中华优秀传统文化是党理论创新的“根脉”，教育人们礼敬中华优秀传统文化，不断增强人们对党的创新理论的文化认同。另一方面，基于构筑中华民族共有精神家园的角度，凝聚思想政治教育传承赓续的文化使命。立足大历史观，从中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展的视角彰显文化价值，探析中华民族的理想信仰、价值取向、思想观念、社会风俗，筑牢中华民族共有精神家园的文化基底。

Second, follow the Two Integrations to open up new space for the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education. First, integrate the humanistic spirit of fine traditional Chinese culture while adhering to the correct direction of ideological and political education. Integrate the people-oriented thought of putting the people first, the enterprising spirit of being vigorous and promising, and the correct principle of harmony in diversity into ideological and political education, providing the educated with rich and high-quality spiritual nourishment. Second, integrate the methodological wisdom of fine traditional Chinese culture while answering the epochal questions of ideological and political education. Tap into the ways of harmony between heaven and man, the way of governing the country and ensuring peace, the way of dealing with people and affairs, and the way of understanding principles and practicing sincerely contained in fine traditional Chinese culture, and promote theoretical and methodological innovation in ideological and political education. Third, integrate the essence and essential meaning of fine traditional Chinese culture while advancing the educational process of ideological and political education. Based on the main front of school education, use traditional Chinese virtues to cultivate socialist morality, allowing traditional Chinese virtues to permeate the hearts of young people; based on the big classroom of social education, use traditional Chinese virtues to nourish laws, regulations, and village rules and folk conventions, forming a social trend of respecting virtue and doing good.

第二，以“两个结合”为遵循，打开中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展新空间。一是在坚守思想政治教育的正确方向中融入中华优秀传统文化的人文精神。把以人为本的民本思想、刚健有为的进取精神、和而不同的正道理念等融入思想政治教育之中，为受教育者提供丰富优质的精神食粮。二是在回答思想政治教育的时代课题中融入中华优秀传统文化的方法智慧。挖掘中华优秀传统文化蕴含着天人和谐之道、治国安邦之道、为人处世之道、明理笃行之道，推进思想政治教育的理论创新和方法创新。三是在推进思想政治教育的育人过程中融入中华优秀传统文化的精髓要义。立足学校教育主阵地，用中华传统美德涵养社会主义道德，让中华传统美德浸润青少年心田；立足社会教育大课堂，以中华传统美德滋养法律法规、村规民约，形成崇德向善的社会风尚。

Third, take the construction of an independent knowledge system of China as the goal to forge new brilliance in the integrated development of fine traditional Chinese culture and ideological and political education. First, starting from the disciplinary system of ideological and political education, it is necessary to both take the main disciplines as the basis to conduct premise-based reflection and root-based examination of the basic concepts and categories of ideological and political education, and take the branch disciplines as support to strengthen research and excavation of the “history of ancient Chinese ideological and political education.” Second, starting from the academic system of ideological and political education, deepen research and interpretation of the general history of ancient Chinese ideological and political education, and deeply excavate the thematic history, regional history, and biographies of figures in ancient Chinese ideological and political education. Third, starting from the discourse system of ideological and political education, deeply excavate the excellent resources in the “Five Histories” [5]5 The “Five Histories” (五史) refers to the history of the Communist Party of China, the history of the People’s Republic of China, the history of reform and opening up, the history of socialist development, and the history of the development of the Chinese nation., especially the history of the development of the Chinese nation, and present them in the form of easy-to-understand, vivid stories to enhance the interest and appeal of ideological and political theory courses. Fourth, starting from the textbook system of ideological and political education, research and compile guidelines for integrating fine traditional Chinese culture into course textbooks, and continuously promote the work of integrating fine traditional Chinese culture into the textbooks of ideological and political theory courses in universities, middle schools, and primary schools.

第三，以建构中国自主的知识体系为目标，铸就中华优秀传统文化与思想政治教育融合发展新辉煌。一是从思想政治教育学科体系着手，既要以主干学科为基础，对思想政治教育学的基本概念、基本范畴等进行前提性反思和根源性审视，又要以分支学科为支撑，加强对“中国古代思想政治教育史”的研究和发掘。二是从思想政治教育学术体系着手，深化对中国古代思想政治教育通史的研究和阐释，深入挖掘中国古代思想政治教育专题史、区域史、人物志等。三是从思想政治教育话语体系着手，深入挖掘“五史”尤其是中华民族发展史中的优秀资源，以通俗易懂、生动形象的故事形式展示出来，增强思想政治理论课的趣味性与吸引力。四是从思想政治教育教材体系着手，研究编制中华优秀传统文化进课程教材指南，持续推进大中小学思想政治理论课教材的中华优秀传统文化融入工作。
