The traditional Chinese Knowing-Doing View,as a core proposition in the history of Chinese philosophy,crystallizes the systematic thinking of the Chinese sages on the questions of"what is knowing-doing""who is to know and do,"and"how to know and do"However,if the traditional Chinese Knowing-Doing View,which was formed in the feudal society,is to be revitalized in the modern society,it is necessary to carry out creative transformation and innovative development.To this end,Mao Zedong,based on the specific context of the Chinese revolution,interpreted and constructed the traditional Chinese Knowing-Doing View in terms of its categories,subjects,and relationships according to Marxism.He gave a new semantic meaning to the basic categories of knowing and doing with"practical knowledge"and"social practice",and constructed the composite nature of the subject of knowing and doing with"the Communist Party of China(CPC)and the Chinese people";"The dialectical-materialist theory of the unity of knowing and doing"has been confirmed as the fundamental guideline for dealing with the relationship between knowing and doing.Mao Zedong's knowing-doing view provides an important methodological reference for the promotion of the creative transformation and innovative development of fine traditional Chinese culture in the new era.
