The Generative Logic of the Autonomous Knowledge System of Chinese Pedagogy
The autonomous knowledge system is a system for knowledge production,accumulation and application with its own logic,generative mechanism and internal rules.The independent knowledge system of Chinese pedagogy is not only an important component and a necessary condition in the building of a powerful country in education,but also an ideological guide to the comprehensive deepening of the educational reform and the stimulation of the vitality of educational development.The autonomy of this knowledge system is a kind of"embedded autonomy,"which is generated in the multiple interactions between China and the world,between knowledge and practice,between the system and problems,and between the policy and the academia.In terms of internal logic construction and external social construction,the knowledge system falls into theoretical construction in knowledge ontology,meaning construction in cultural value,institutional construction in the disciplinary position,and ecological construction in social status.To construct an autonomous knowledge system,we need to clarify what knowledge,whose knowledge,who produces knowledge and who uses knowledge,and grasp the four logics of theory,culture,institution and society.We must emphasize originality and systematicity in the theoretical logic,subjectivity and creativity in the cultural logic,academic productivity and the change in the relations of production in the institutional logic,and practicability and credibility in the social logic so as to promote knowledge growth,cultural consciousness,disciplinary construction and knowledge application.Only by achieving subjectivity and autonomy based on the underlying logic of the knowledge system in the building of a powerful country in education can we systematically make a qualitative change in the development of education.
