How to treat the combination of Marxism and China traditional culture?

Marxism and China traditional culture are unified and inseparable. Secondly, they also have the opposite side, so we should critically and dialectically sublate China traditional culture under the guidance of Marxism.

Without China's excellent traditional culture, there would be no Marxist China. Without China Marxism, there would be no modernization of China's excellent traditional culture. A history of Marxist development in China is also a history of learning, absorbing and transforming China's excellent traditional culture.

Precautions:

1. Resolutely give up what should be given up

Inheritance and absorption must be based on the criterion of serving the present. There are many things in Confucianism that we can't absorb no matter how we transform it.

2. We should grasp the historical evolution of Confucianism.

After more than two thousand years of development, Confucianism has become a huge and complex cultural system. Only by clarifying the evolution history of Confucianism and the different manifestations of Confucianism in different times can we reduce blindness and enhance consciousness when criticizing inheritance.

3. We should look at different attitudes towards Confucianism in different times historically.

Confucianism is a highly WTO-oriented theory. Since China joined the WTO, different people in different times have to interpret it differently, and inevitably there will be different or even completely opposite evaluations. Lenin told us: "When analyzing any social problem, the absolute requirement of Marxist theory is to bring the problem into a certain historical range".

4. Work hard on transformation.

Engels profoundly pointed out: "All previous moral theories are, in the final analysis, the products of social and economic conditions at that time. Society has been moving forward in class opposition until now, so morality is always class morality; It either defends the rule and interests of the ruling class, or represents the resistance of the oppressed to this rule and its future interests when the oppressed class becomes strong enough.
