The New Attraction of Chinese Civilization in the New Era and the New Researching Realm of “Integrating the Basic Tenets of Marxism with China’s Realities and the Best of Traditional Chinese Culture”：A deep understanding of the new charm of Chinese civilization in the new era and a summary of the historical experience and laws of “integrating the basic tenets of Marxism with China’s realities and the best of traditional Chinese culture” are of great significance to advancing the new realm of localizing and modernizing Marxism in China.In the new era,the historical time and space of Chinese civilization has been newly expanded and confirmed.Chinese civilization has demonstrated outstanding advantages and continuity of development,and its vitality is rooted in the “endogenous power” of interaction and integration between the center and the periphery of the civilization structure.We should correctly understand the historical reasons for the change in Chinese civilization from humiliation to struggles for a rise for the Chinese nation in modern times,persist in creatively transforming and innovatively developing the best of traditional Chinese culture,reject retroism and historical nihilism,and understand that only Marxism can activate the factors of Chinese civilization and guide the direction of contemporary social development.In the new era,we should continue to adapt the best of traditional Chinese culture to socialist society,adhere to the guiding position of Marxism in the field of ideology,and give full play to the nurturing role of the best of traditional Chinese culture,in order to realize the new mission of “integrating the basic tenets of Marxism with China’s realities and the best of traditional Chinese culture”.(Liu Shu-lin)

On the Socialist Essence in People-Centered Discourse：“People-centeredness” is the core value pursuit of governance in the new era,which is determined by the nature of socialism and needs to be promoted continually.The connotation of “people-centered” discourse in the new era highlights the essence of socialism,which is manifested in continually enhancing socialism recognition through solving social problems,increasing the sense of socialist reality through sharing the fruits of reforms,and safeguarding the authenticity of socialism through consolidating the foundation of governance.On the new journey,we should persist in developing and improving the “people-centered” discourse,hold fast to its socialist nature,learn from the lessons of making the people’s discourse “abstract”,“populist”,and “divisive” in history and reality,prevent the socialist nature from being deconstructed,stigmatized,or obscured,and constantly promote the construction of a people-centered socialist discourse.(Wang Sheng-yu)

Eradicating the Soil and Conditions for Corruption: A Jurisprudential Reflection：Eradicating the soil and conditions that breed corruption is a governance goal proposed by the CPC in the face of the high incidence of corruption crimes during the critical period of reform and opening up,marking a new era of scientific governance with Chinese characteristics against corruption.The metaphor of “soil and conditions” suggests the analysis and positioning of institutional and mechanistic factors in economic and social development,respectively corresponding to the political and social basis of corruption and the external factors that induce corruption;the former includes basic elements such as the economic system,political institution,cultural structure,etc.,while the latter institutional elements such as power allocation,operation and supervision.The development of Chinese anti-corruption governance system should complete the “transformation” of the soil for corruption through reforming the national governance structure,and eliminate the conditions for corruption by standardizing the power system.(Ji Kang,Wei Chang-dong)

Countryside,Revolution,and “Chinese Modernization”: From the Perspective of the Global South (II)：“Chinese modernization” is the modernization for the Third World countries.Its sufferings,hardships as well as twists and turns in fact reflect all the crises in the process of modernization in the Third World,while its rise is also a model for the Global South--breaking through the blockade and repression in the unequal world pattern.In terms of the history and practice of the wars,revolutions and world socialism in China and Russia in the 20th century,industrialisation and agricultural modernization are the key to the contest.After the ideological fog of the“end of history” has dissipated,industrialisation-based modernization and the sovereignty of independent nations are classic issues and concerns for the Global South.In this sense,“Chinese modernization” does not belong to China alone,but is a path of human development to break through the dilemma of capitalist globalization on a world scale: the people’s globalization.(Lyu Xin-yu)

Marx and Engels’ Critique of the Misreadings of Das Kapital：The history of disseminatingDas Kapitalis,to a large extent,also a history of misinterpretation.The misreadings ofDas Kapitalhave been manifested in different ways at different stages,which can be basically categorized into three types: “research methods”,“main theories”,and “academic attitudes”.Marx and Engels criticized these three kinds of misreadings when they were still alive.Therefore,the critique by Marx and Engels has important theoretical inspiration and practical significance.At present,the relevant research should draw on Marx and Engels’ wisdom formed in their critique,refute the misreadings on the basis of text and reasoning;establish a scientific attitude in the refutation;and create a good academic style in scientific research.(Shi Ling)

The New Changes in Contemporary Capitalism：After the financial crisis in 2008,capitalism embarked on a partial qualitative change and entered a new stage of “financial+digital” monopoly,as the developed capitalist countries,with declining dominace over the world,adopted new policies in politics,economy and culture.The real development of contemporary capitalism shows that its monopolistic nature remains unchanged,as do its decadent,parasitic and dying characteristics.Against the backdrop of profound changes unseen in a century,with the continual rise of socialist countries and developing countries represented by China,capitalism will not easily give up its leading edge since the Industrial Revolution,and may become even more reactionary,ferocious and dangerous,for which we need to be more clear-headed and wellprepared.(Ji Jian-qiang)

Contemporary Capitalism: Its Full-Blown Crisis and Hazards：Contemporary capitalism is staging a full-blown crisis and leading to a global catastrophe.Among the practice of neo-classical liberalism in capitalist countries,the degradation of consensus politics,the rise of populism,the sppearance of polarized politics,and the ossification of checks and balances have emerged in an endless stream.Through theoretical indoctrination and digital technology,contemporary capitalism tries its best to shape the lie of a post-class narrative,only to be punctured by inequality and class divide,triggering spiritual emptiness,value division,and political confrontation.Neoclassical-liberal globalization and new technological changes have shaped a capital-centered pattern of interest distribution,resulting in polarized Western societies and a class conflict that has torn the “left” and the “right” apart.In order to alleviate the domestic crisis,the developed capitalist countries led by the United States have externalized their internal class conflicts into international contradictions,pursued economic and cultural nationalism,provoked geopolitical confrontation,and exposed their imperialist nature.The current full-blown crisis has not yet pushed capitalism to collapse,which we should be clear about.And at the same time,we must stick to the path of Chinese modernization and make due contributions to world peace and development as well as to the progress of human civilization.(Niu Xia-fei)

Mao Ze-dong’s Wisdom on Advancing Theoretical Innovation from Traditional Culture: An Example of His Commentaries on Hui Neng and The Altar Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch：Among Buddhist figures and classics,Mao Ze-dong most appreciated Hui Neng and hisThe Altar Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch.This stems mainly from the contribution of Hui Neng andThe Altar Sutra of the Sixth Patriarchto the development of Chinese Buddhism in three aspects,namely,Sinicization,popularization,and people-centeredness.Mao Ze-dong was good at reading experience and wisdom from ancient books,and then learning from the past and utilizing the past for the present.In recognizing Hui Neng andThe Altar Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch,he intended to learn from Hui Neng’s practice and experience and apply them to the practice of revolution and construction in China.Hui Neng’s promoting Buddhist reform and the Sinicization of Buddhism inThe Altar Sutra of the Sixth Patriarchshare something in common with Mao Ze-dong’s integrating the principles of Marxism with the practice of the Chinese revolution as well as their Sinicization and nationalization.Analyzing Mao’s evaluation of Hui Neng andThe Altar Sutra of the Sixth Patriarchis a rich source of inspiration for us to promote the innovation of Marxist theories: first,to write Sinicized Marxist theories;second,to write popular Marxist theories;and third,to write Marxist theories that the people need.(Fan Xian-lei)

Mao Ze-dong and the Founding Practice of Chinese Modernization：Mao Ze-dong has long noticed modernization is the main direction for the development and progress of human society and the historical mission of the CPC.The five characteristics of Chinese modernization appeared in Mao’s era,namely,the modernization with a huge population,with common prosperity for all the people,with the coordinated development of material and cultural-ethical advancement,with harmonious coexistence between man and nature,and on the path of peaceful development.In this regard,Mao Ze-dong launched an arduous exploration and led the people of China to struggle hard to establish an independent and relatively complete industrial system and national economic system,which established indelible contributions for the development of China’s socialist cause.(Shao Yong)

Chen Yun’s Ideological Methodology of Adhering to both Seeking Truth from Facts and Conducting Investigation and Research：Chen Yun’s emphasis on “learning and mastering Marxist philosophy” as well as his refining the ideological method of “not seeking the truth from superiors or books,but from reality,exchange,comparison,and continual efforts” is his persisting in and developing the methodology of Mao Zedong Thought,and an important part of the methodology of Sinicized Marxism.The methodology of Xi Jin-ping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics in the New Era inherits,enriches and develops Marxist methodology,especially the methodology of Sinicized Marxism.Xi Jin-ping’s important exposition on “learning and using philosophy” and his important views on adhering to seeking truth from facts,conducting investigation and research,and analyzing problems comprehensively and objectively grow from the inheritance of Chen Yun’s ideological methodology.An in-depth study of Chen Yun’s ideological methodology and its influence on the methodology of Xi Jin-ping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics in the New Era is helpful for us to deeply understand and grasp the inheritance and development of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics in the New Era in terms of the methodology of Sinicized Marxism,which is of great significance for improving the leadership skills and working competencies of the majority of leading cadres.(Yang Yu-cheng,Wang Qian-ge)

The Role and Implications of Land Nationalization in the Early Years of New China：Land is one of the most important means of production in human society.The type of land ownership the proletariat establish after acquiring state power has a bearing on the consolidation of proletarian state power and the future development of the proletariat.The policy of nationalizing land in the early years of New China boasted sufficient theoretical and practical basis.Under the specific historical conditions at that time,land nationalization played an important role in realizing the state control of urban land resources,consolidating the new people’s government,guaranteeing the development of national industrialization,ensuring the rational distribution of land resources to facilitate their welfare function,and ensuring the fruits of industrialization benefited the development of the agricultural sector,and so on.In retrospection,the beneficial experience of implementing the policy of land nationalization in the early years of New China can be summarized as “persistence in two aspects” and “one correct understanding”,which are profoundly instructive for reforming and improving China’s land system in the new era.(Jiang Nan)
