How to maintain national emotional identity

Understanding history and realizing subjective consciousness.

Taking history as a mirror, we can know the rise and fall. It is commendable for young students to look at the world and look forward to the future, but as the masters of the future, they also need to respect history. In the process of national spirit education, the first thing is to guide college students to respect national traditions and carry forward the essence of the nation. As the frontier of cultural inheritance and knowledge innovation, colleges and universities should truly reflect the similarities and differences of national consciousness, national culture, national customs, national character, national belief, national values and value pursuit formed in the long-term historical process and accumulation through professional infiltration, comparative research, political guidance, documentary evidence and example, and educate students through the lens of history to make them realize that this is maintenance, coordination and pursuit. History education can't be ignored at any time; National spirit education needs to pay more attention to the historical dimension and stimulate students' national consciousness with the power of time and space.

Keep pace with the times.

Time is the most vivid classroom. Young students grow up with knowledge and skills in the first class, but in this big class of society, college students need to actively integrate, choose themselves and shape their values. In the socialist core value system, the most fundamental thing of national spirit education is to carry forward the spirit of patriotism, so that young students can cherish the country, know how to be patriotic, and know how to express patriotic feelings. In the turbulent international situation and social environment, how to prevent the tendency of "de-nationalization" and excessive nationalism. Around "9. 18" this year, the majority of young students expressed their rational patriotism, conveyed the voice of China youth to the world, and conveyed their self-confidence and mature national feelings.

Rational spirit needs to be cultivated.

Rational spirit and rational attitude are important contents of national spirit education. Today, as pointed out in the report of the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the world is still not peaceful, the imbalance of global development is increasing, hegemonism, power politics and neo-interventionism are on the rise, local turmoil is frequent, and global issues such as food security, energy resources security and network security are more prominent. The rational spirit of young college students includes current world outlook, world development outlook, China development outlook and national progress outlook. As we all know, there has been a lack of compliance or pursuit of the rule of law, freedom and dignity in the eastern cultural tradition, which is rooted in the lack of rational spirit in the eastern culture. The rational spirit of the west has led to a series of successful factors on the spiritual and scientific levels, and ensured the rise of the western world and nation for hundreds of years. University is a crucial period to cultivate young people's rational spirit. Strengthening national spirit education is not a simple preaching and indoctrination, but a rational comparison and value consideration of the nation on the world stage. In particular, it is necessary to explain clearly and thoroughly to students the achievements that have attracted worldwide attention over the past 30 years of reform and opening up and enhance their persuasiveness. Only in this way can the rational viewpoint hold water and the national self-confidence become the source of living water.

Emotional recognition is the greatest guarantee.

Young people are the most passionate, and strengthening emotional identity is the humanistic appeal of strengthening national identity and national spirit education. "Identity" can be divided into self-identity and collective (social) identity. Individuals can have multiple collective ownership and recognition. When the collective identity is mainly based on nationality, the identity will be stronger and more lasting; National identity refers to members' identification with the membership of the nation or nation-state, and the resulting sense of belonging, loyalty and dedication. From the perspective of young students, national identity and emotional identity are further reflected in the natural co-directional and resultant effects of cultural identity.

College students themselves are emotional subjects, rich in national feelings, national culture and national genes. In today's globalization, this national emotional identity is no longer closed, but needs an open environment construction, a solid foundation for development, and a cultural identity from inner consciousness and self-choice. The inevitable choice of the Chinese production party as the ruling party and the establishment of Socialism with Chinese characteristics's development path are the rational results of the historical and realistic choice of the Chinese nation. This kind of choice identity, emotional identity and cultural identity must be strengthened through the main classroom, political study, social practice and international exchange, so as to guide college students' national self-confidence and high-level identity with positive energy. Young people agree that safety is the greatest safety.

Carrying forward the national spirit in the era of globalization is an inherent requirement for the growth and development of young college students. Take various forms and channels to restore the ideological connotation and historical essence of the national spirit to reality, let young students make rational choices through enlightenment and edification, and enrich the educational content with the fresh spirit of keeping pace with the times. Only in this way can the national spirit be deepened and carried forward.
