Essay on national defense education

National defense consciousness is a concentrated expression of consciously safeguarding the interests of the nation and the country, and a comprehensive embodiment of the national spirit and quality. Fighting spirit is the highest expression of national defense consciousness. Fighting spirit is the unique mental state and temperament characteristics of the army, and it is the concentrated embodiment of the quality and consciousness of soldiers. The fighting spirit has a strong guiding role in the national defense consciousness of the whole people. A long-term peaceful environment can easily lead to lax thinking and dilute national defense awareness. In the period of important strategic opportunities to safeguard national development, it is necessary to strengthen national defense education, guide the broad masses of cadres and people to establish the concept of "great national defense", keep in mind that "the world is safe, and forgetting to fight will be dangerous", constantly enhance the sense of responsibility and mission of caring about national defense, form a good atmosphere for the whole society to participate in national defense construction, and provide strong support for cultivating fighting spirit. To cultivate the fighting spirit of the army, we should focus on the core contents such as patriotic dedication, firm belief, dare to fight and win, forge the excellent fighting temperament of soldiers under high-tech conditions, set an example for the whole society, and promote the improvement of national defense awareness of the whole people. The world military revolution is surging. For our country, security and sovereignty always come first. China is a country with the most complicated surrounding environment in the world, and it is also a country facing diversified security threats. It is particularly important to fully understand and accurately grasp the development of the situation and tasks and strengthen the national defense concept and national defense education of the whole people. Today, the world is changing, although peace and development have become the mainstream of the world. However, contradictions between various countries and regions still exist, and ethnic conflicts continue. Before the formation of the new world political and economic structure, the struggle of various forces became increasingly fierce, hegemonic power politics still existed, and the world was not peaceful. Entering the new century, the pace of modernization in China is accelerating and the reform is deepening. With the increasing comprehensive national strength, the pressure of national defense is also increasing. Some western powers do not want to see the strength of China, and try their best to obstruct the progress of China. As a school that trains socialist successors, it is bound to prepare talents for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation in the new century. It is our educators' unshirkable responsibility to strengthen national defense education, enhance national defense awareness, establish young people's awareness of serving the motherland from an early age, and cultivate a strong reserve army to defend the motherland. Strengthening national defense education and raising teenagers' awareness of national defense is one of the main contents of school moral education and an integral part of patriotic education. It is related to national security and the future of the nation, and whether teenagers can become the comprehensive talents that the motherland and people need. As the saying goes, "the country can't stand without defense, and the people can't live without soldiers." National defense is the security guarantee for the survival and development of the country. The survival and development of a country cannot be separated from its sovereign independence, territorial integrity, security, unity and stability. Whether it is to ensure that the internal affairs of the country are not interfered, the sovereignty is not violated, and the territory is not divided, or to realize the reunification of the motherland and promote the long-term stability of the country and the people's livelihood and happiness, it is inseparable from strong national defense. It is timely to carry out national defense education in middle schools, which is a wise decision of the CPC Central Committee. Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. We should carry out a series of national defense education activities on the basis of scientific knowledge transfer, which is a work that contributes to the present and benefits the future! Strengthening the concept of national defense in the information age is a comprehensive and dynamic reflection of the military struggle and national defense tasks, national defense significance, national defense methods and corresponding national defense characteristics in people's minds in the information age. In a certain sense, the spiritual function of national defense concept is more important than economic potential, scientific and technological potential and other material factors in national defense construction at a certain time and occasion. Without a solid concept of national defense, there will be no effective transformation of economic potential and scientific and technological potential, and national defense modernization will only be empty talk. Therefore, it is no exaggeration to regard national defense as a "centripetal force" that unites people of all ethnic groups and defends national interests, leads people to overcome difficulties and obstacles, and consciously cares about and strengthens national defense construction. The concept of grand national defense covers military, political, economic, scientific and technological, cultural and many other aspects. Compared with the traditional concept of national defense, it has been greatly expanded in both connotation and extension. New concepts such as marine defense concept, space defense concept and network defense concept emerge one after another, which are vivid and rich, providing a broad imagination space and a steady stream of topics for our military news propaganda. Comrade * * * pointed out: "As long as the country exists, there will be national defense, and national defense education will be carried out for a long time as a lifelong education for citizens." Both the 14th and 15th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to "do a good job in national defense education for all". This is a strategic task put forward by the CPC Central Committee to ensure the long-term stability of the country under the complicated and changeable international situation and the new situation of domestic reform and opening up. Military news propaganda, as an important mouthpiece of public opinion guidance, should do enough work in this regard. 2. Maintaining people's sense of hardship in peacetime means "born in hardship and died in happiness", which has been repeatedly proved for thousands of years. Only by maintaining enough sense of urgency and seeing the threats we face can we have the courage and determination to make great efforts and make progress. The field of military news is full of blood and fire, glory and shame, and it is the most ideal media platform for the education of hardship consciousness. In order to make the sense of hardship deeply rooted in people's hearts, military news propaganda should not only pay attention to the analysis of the current international and domestic situation, but also pay attention to the early warning report of possible crises, even if the real situation is not so dangerous at present. The crisis report of public opinion is helpful to arouse the vigilance of the masses, but it has no harm. On the contrary, blind optimism, only seeing one's own strong advantages, not thinking about one's own shortcomings and future difficulties, only seeking the immediate passability, not seeking long-term hard life, will only lead to a serious crisis in the end. Taking the report on the development of military technology as an example, in the past military news propaganda, the existing equipment of our army was compared with the equipment during the liberation war or even in the early stage. Although this kind of comparison is conducive to carrying forward the glorious tradition of our army and establishing the confidence to dare to fight and fight, it is easy to breed blind optimism if we blindly immerse ourselves in it. Therefore, we should also pay attention to the comparison with foreign advanced troops to some extent in propaganda and reporting, understand the gap and learn from experience. 3. Strengthen the national defense education of the whole people, insist on using Scientific Outlook on Development to guide national defense education, create a strong atmosphere of supporting national defense, speed up the infrastructure construction of national defense education, promote the development and innovation of national defense education, establish and improve the working mechanism of organization and leadership, carry out in-depth education on national security situation with preparing for danger in times of peace and paying attention to national defense as the main content, publicize the significance of national defense construction, and enhance the national defense concept and sense of hardship of the broad masses. Focus on promoting national reform, development and stability, carry out in-depth patriotic education with the main content of loving the motherland and rejuvenating China, enhance national identity and national pride, and make national defense education better serve the building of a well-off society in an all-round way. Make full use of the favorable opportunity of "National Defense Education Day", earnestly carry out publicity and education activities, improve the enthusiasm of the broad masses of people to love, care about and join in national defense, and enhance the national defense awareness of all citizens. At this stage, we urgently need to strengthen the national defense education of primary and secondary school students, which is a historical lesson and a realistic need. National defense education is a national defense consciousness and knowledge education with patriotism as the core, which encourages citizens to consciously safeguard national interests and fulfill various national defense obligations. In fact, national defense education is the education of patriotism and revolutionary heroism, the education of national spirit and national integrity, the education of arousing people's sense of hardship and national crisis, and an important aspect of socialist spiritual civilization. For a country, a nation, especially schools, national defense education is an indispensable basic education, the soul of national security and national interests, and the basic project and central link to enhance citizens' national defense concept and improve citizens' national defense quality. We must strengthen national defense education for primary and secondary school students, which is the need to consolidate national defense and resist aggression, and also the need to cultivate qualified national defense reserve talents in the new century. It is a truth confirmed by history that only when the country is undefended and the people are restless can the country be peaceful. The future war against aggression is not only a contest of military strength, but also a contest of comprehensive national strength and even national cohesion. Today's primary and secondary school students are undoubtedly the backbone of tomorrow's national defense construction. Therefore, under peaceful conditions, strengthening the national defense education of primary and secondary school students is a major issue that we need to seriously study and solve, and it is also the foundation of the Great Wall of Steel. It is more urgent and important to strengthen the national defense education of primary and secondary school students! In short, at the beginning of the new century, it can be predicted that as long as we attach great importance to the concept of national defense and national defense education for all, China's national defense modernization will be further consolidated and developed, and our country will be able to calmly deal with all possible accidents, thus ensuring an invincible position in the future military struggle. China should be developed into a global power with strong economic and national defense strength, decisive voice in world affairs, containment of war and maintenance of world peace.
