The Axiological Interpretation of"Affinity to the People"on the Chinese Path to Modernization
The affinity to the people is the essential attribute of Marxism and with profound axiological implications,it is also the basic color of the Chinese path to modernization,which is different from that of Western modernization.The Chinese path to modernization strictly abides by the dominant position of the people and provides it with multi-dimensional and all-round guarantees at political,economic,cultural,social,and other levels,which has broken the dominance of capital logic over the people under Western modernization.Adhering to the value principle of putting the people first,the Chinese path to modernization regards the people as the starting point and foothold of development and shows the broadest affinity to the people in the multiple dimensions of history,reality,theory and practice,which has exceeded the value principle of putting capital first.With the value goal of meeting the needs of the people for a better life,the Chinese path to modernization improves the relationship between people and themselves,between people and nature,and between people and society on the basis of existing productive forces,which has abandon traditional paths to modernization that lead to the one-sided development of people,and ushered in a new era of modernization featuring the comprehensive development of people and the comprehensive progress of society.Interpreting the affinity to the people on the Chinese path to modernization based on value philosophy is conducive to highlighting the breakthrough and transcendence of the Chinese path to modernization against Western modernization at the value level.
