The Three-dimensional Logic of the Significance of Intellectual History of"The Second Combination"
Integrating the basic tenets of Marxism with China's fine traditional culture consti-tutes"the second combination"of the CPC's efforts to adapt Marxism to the Chinese context and the needs of our times."The second combination"is another emancipation of the mind in the history of the Party's theoretical innovations.The key to the significance of emancipation of the mind of"the second combination"lies in the fact that the"combination"has enabled the Party's understanding of adapting Marxism to the Chinese context and the needs of our times to rise to an unprecedentedly high level of regularity,and it has highlighted the extremely far-reaching significance of intellectual history.First of all,"the second combination"accurately clarifies the inherent logical relationship between the"soul"of Marxism and the"root"of China's fine traditional culture.It not only denies the dogmatic understanding of Marxism,but also rejects the erroneous tendency of cultural nihilism and cultural retrofuturism,and it is a systematic interpretation of the"meta-issue"in the history of adapting Marxism to the Chinese context.Secondly,"the second combination"achieves the histori-cal construction of a new cultural form,which is manifested in the creation of modern Chinese civili-zation through the"combination".It is a kind of composite civilization form that transcends not only the pre-modernity of the traditional view of civilization,but also the metaphysical and abstract nature of the western view of civilization.Modern Chinese civilization has landmark significance in the his-tory of Chinese civilization.Finally,"the second combination"has built up the cultural foundation of Chinese modernization,and it profoundly clarifies based on the outstanding continuity of Chinese civilization that the path choice of Chinese modernization is a historical necessity rather than an acci-dent of the times,and that it has a deep civilizational heritage and a solid civilizational foundation.
