What are the contents of national cultural security?

Culture is the blood of the nation and the spiritual home of the people, which plays an important role in economic and social development. Cultural security mainly refers to a state in which a culture is not replaced or assimilated by other cultures, maintains its own uniqueness, independence and integrity, and continues to inherit and develop. National cultural security mainly means that the mainstream cultural system of a sovereign country has not been eroded and destroyed by other cultures, and can completely maintain its own cultural traditions and national characteristics, safeguard the diversity of world cultures and expand its cultural influence.

Specifically, national cultural security mainly includes preserving national cultural characteristics, respecting national cultural values, protecting cultural resources and heritage, and inheriting cultural traditions. National cultural security can also be divided into values security, language security, cultural resources security, customs security, lifestyle security, cultural talents security and so on. National cultural security is a non-traditional security factor, which constitutes a national security system together with national political security, economic security, national security, homeland security and other traditional security factors.

At present, with the development of economic globalization and informatization, unprecedented changes have taken place in the form, speed and intensity of cultural communication, and cultural exchanges have become increasingly frequent and in-depth. Some countries, especially western developed countries, have infiltrated other countries by virtue of their economic strength, scientific and technological advantages, marketing means and political promotion, which has seriously affected the cultural security of these countries. From the actual situation, China is an important target of cultural infiltration in some countries, and the development of China culture is being threatened and challenged, so the task of maintaining national cultural security is very arduous.

For example, in the ideological field, some hostile forces in the West have never given up their attempts to "westernize" and "divide" China, and their actions are frequent; In the field of cultural exchange, western cultural products (especially film and television products and animation games), languages, academic theories and holiday customs are impacting China's traditional culture, mainstream values, social sciences and lifestyle, and its cultural hegemony is prominent. In this context, it is of great practical and far-reaching historical significance to emphasize "earnestly safeguarding national cultural security".

The key to maintaining China's national cultural security is to rely on cultural construction. Under the new situation, we should adhere to the road of cultural development in Socialism with Chinese characteristics, vigorously promote the construction of socialist core value system, comprehensively enhance China's cultural soft power, strive to build a socialist cultural power and safeguard national cultural security. In practice, we need to focus on the following aspects.

1, strengthen cultural innovation capacity building.

The advanced nature of culture is the fundamental guarantee of national cultural security, and strong cultural innovation ability is the basis for maintaining the advanced nature of culture. The stronger a country's cultural innovation ability is, the more advanced its culture will be, and the less it will be impacted by foreign cultures, and vice versa. We should fully implement the direction of "two ones" and the policy of "letting a hundred flowers blossom" and vigorously promote cultural innovation.

2. Accelerate the development of cultural industry in China.

Compared with developed countries in the world, China's cultural industry started late and its strength is weak, which is an important reason why China's cultural discourse power is not strong, the cultural trade deficit is large and the cultural security situation is not optimistic. Increase investment in the cultural industry, encourage the capital of different social subjects to flow to the cultural industry, rapidly expand the cultural industry, realize the transformation of China from a big country with cultural resources to a strong country with cultural industries, and let our cultural products withstand the storms and upgrade in the international market, and gradually improve international competitiveness.

3. Innovative culture going out mode.

"Innovative culture going out mode" is an important task put forward by the Sixth Plenary Session of the Seventeenth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, which is of great significance to maintaining national cultural security. Efforts should be made to enhance the attraction, affinity and appeal of Chinese culture, reduce the misunderstanding, misunderstanding and misjudgment of Chinese culture by the international community, innovate ways of foreign cultural exchanges, push Chinese culture to the world, continuously enhance its international influence, and show the image of China as civilized, democratic, open and progressive.
