Studying history can help us better understand where the Chinese nation came from and where it will go. Marx said that we only know a unique science-history.
China is the only country in the world with an uninterrupted history of thousands of years. Vast history books record all kinds of knowledge, experience and wisdom accumulated by the Chinese nation in creating history. History is the root of reality, and today of any country comes from yesterday; Only by knowing her yesterday can we know where she came from and where she will go. To understand China today, we should start with her history.
2. Studying history can provide beneficial enlightenment for governing the country.
History is a book of predecessors' practice and wisdom. The history of China is the history of the unremitting pioneering and development of the people of China and the Chinese nation, which contains rich experience in governing the country and politics, and many thoughts on the rise and fall of the country, society, nation and individual, security and danger, right and evil, honor and disgrace, righteousness and benefit, honesty and greed.
Today's China developed from yesterday, and many things we encounter today can be found in history. Only by carefully studying and summarizing the history of China can we make full use of the great wisdom accumulated by the Chinese nation for more than 5,000 years to solve the problems and challenges encountered on the road ahead.
3. Studying history can enhance the backbone and confidence of China people.
To realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, the people of China need backbone and confidence. As the only ancient civilization with uninterrupted historical records in the world, the civilization history of more than 5,000 years is the spiritual source of China people's backbone and self-confidence.
The excellent culture and glorious history of the Chinese nation are the root and soul of the Chinese nation and the endogenous strength of the Chinese nation. To realize the goal of "two hundred years" and the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we need to understand the history of our nation and country, inherit the achievements and glory of our ancestors, enhance our backbone and confidence as China people, and let our excellent culture and glorious history better serve the great cause of national rejuvenation.
4. Pay more attention to history and think more.
Respect and cherish your own history and protect your own historical and cultural heritage. History cannot be chosen at will or changed. How to treat history is a serious issue concerning the past, present and future of the nation.
The history of China's 5,000-year civilization, the history of China people's struggle since modern times 170, the history of China's production party for 90 years, the history of China people's development for 60 years, and the history of reform and opening up for 30 years are inseparable. We should respect and think more about history, protect our historical and cultural heritage as much as we cherish our own lives, and constantly draw beneficial nutrients from history.
5. Adhere to Marxist historical view and methodology, and be alert to and resist historical nihilism.
Under the banner of "restoring history" and "reflecting on history", historical nihilism denies the progressive things and positive figures in China's history, especially in modern history, denies the history of China's production party, discredits national heroes and revolutionary leaders, and dispels people's correct understanding of history with a distorted view of history. How to treat its own history is a problem that any country must solve in the process of modernization.
We must unswervingly defend the history of resistance to imperialist aggression written by the people of China in modern times with blood and life, and refute the wrong statements that distort history, deny and beautify the war of aggression with facts; Cherish and admire national heroes; The evaluation of revolutionary leaders should not fall into the quagmire of nihilism, but should be viewed and analyzed comprehensively, historically and dialectically.
6. Draw experience and wisdom from history.
Understand the history of China's civilization for more than 5,000 years, and deepen our understanding of the excellent tradition and spiritual character of the Chinese nation. The history of Chinese civilization of more than 5,000 years is an incomparably rich treasure house, from which we can draw rich nutrition and gain strong spiritual motivation. Reflected in the fine tradition and spiritual character of the Chinese nation. The Chinese nation has formed many fine traditions in the process of development.
For example, we can learn from the history of China, which experienced many wars and divisions but eventually moved towards reunification, the Chinese nation's fine tradition of advocating and safeguarding national unity. Chinese civilization has formed a noble spiritual character in the process of development. Qu Yuan was demoted to Li Sao, and Sima Qian wrote Historical Records, which embodies the lofty spiritual character of the Chinese nation.
The fine traditions and noble spirits handed down from generation to generation of the Chinese nation, such as "hard work, success is in jade", "wealth can't be lewd, poverty can't be moved, and powerful people can't bend", and "since ancient times, no one has died, the world has risen and fallen, and every man has a responsibility", are still of great significance for us to form a good character and cultivate lofty integrity today.
7. Learn the modern history of China, and deepen our understanding of the law of social development in modern China.
The modern history of China is a history from suffering, struggle to victory. To study China's modern history, we should have a deep understanding of China's sufferings and draw a profound lesson that backwardness means being beaten and bullied. In modern times, the people of China tried to achieve national rejuvenation through the reformism of the feudal ruling class, the old peasant war and the bourgeois revolution, but all failed.
Finally, it was the China * * * production party that led the people of China to completely change the fate of China. Now, we are closer to the goal of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation than at any time in history, and we are more confident and capable of achieving this goal than at any time in history. To study the modern history of China, we should deeply understand the historical and historical inevitability of the Chinese production party and people choosing the socialist road, and constantly enhance the "four self-confidences".
8. Learn knowledge of world history and deepen your understanding of the outside world.
The history of China is an important part of world history. Today's world is an open one, and China is more closely connected with the world. It is even more necessary for us to better understand the outside world with a broad historical perspective by learning the knowledge of world history, actively absorb the beneficial elements of different civilizations, and serve China's socialist modernization.
