Abstract:

Adhering to the integration of the basic tenets of Marxism with the specific situation in China and the fine traditional Chinese culture is the valuable experience of CPC over the past century. The fine traditional Chinese culture and Marxism are the “root” and “soul” of socialist culture with Chinese characteristics respectively. In recent years, in inheriting and promoting the fine traditional Chinese culture and in handling the relationship between Marxism and traditional Chinese culture, there arise two faulty tendencies, namely Confucianism replacing Marxism and Marxism abolishing Confucianism. This paper argues that the former attempts to confucianize Marxism with the fine traditional Chinese culture, in particular with Confucian culture, which to some extent amounts to denying Marxism; while the latter holds that Marxism cannot be integrated with the fine traditional Chinese culture, thus cutting the root of the Sinicization of Marxism. Both tendencies are fundamentally wrong in that they sever the relationship between Marxism and the fine traditional Chinese culture. Building the socialist culture with Chinese characteristics in the new era requires comprehensive innovation based on the rational criticism of Chinese and western cultures under the guidance of Marxism, the true realization of the creative transformation and innovative development of the fine traditional Chinese culture, and the proposal of China's plan and China's wisdom to cope with the modern civilization crisis on a global scale. Only then can Chinese culture be modernized and truly revive to the leading position of the world culture.
