Research On Mao Zedong’s View On People’s Health

People’s health bears on their happiness,the rejuvenation of the nation,and the prosperity of the country.It is an important part of improving the people’s livelihood.General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly stressed the priority of developing people’s health and actively implementing the "Healthy China" strategy.Facing the realistic task of healthy development of the people in the new era,we can still draw experience and wisdom from history.As early as the Mao Zedong period,the concept of national health has been preliminarily formed in China.Based on the specific national conditions of China,Mao Zedong put forward a series of views on people’s health,which guided development of people’s health undertakings and promoted people’s health literacy.In-depth study of Mao Zedong’s concept of people’s health can not only further enrich Mao Zedong’s Thought,but also provide beneficial inspiration for the development of people’s health cause in the new era,which has important theoretical significance and practical value.This study adopts historical document research method and interdisciplinary comprehensive research method,takes Mao Zedong’s discourse on people’s health as the axis,and focuses on the grasping the development of Mao Zedong’s view on people’s health in history and reality,theory and practice.On the basis of discussing the research background,research significance,research status and related concepts of this topic,the article carries out the research from three dimensions of Mao Zedong’s concept of people’s health: "how to form" "how to understand" and "what is the meaning".The first part traces "how to form" Mao Zedong’s concept of people’s health from the theoretical origin and realistic conditions.Mao Zedong’s concept of people’s health inherited the view of people’s health of classical Marxist writers and absorbed the important exposition of people’s health of early Chinese Marxist propagators and the view of people’s health of traditional Chinese culture.At the same time,Mao Zedong’s concept of people’s health was influenced by Mao Zedong’s youth experience,modern China’s national conditions and world conditions,and experienced four stages of development.The second part further illustrates the content,practice and characteristics of "how to understand" Mao Zedong’s concept of people’s health.Mao Zedong’s rich exposition in the field of people’s health can be summarized in five aspects as epistemology,goal theory,status theory,motivation theory and value theory,he also promoted the realization of people’s health orderly through three measures including sports,education and hygiene.This shows the characteristics of "three unity" of Mao Zedong’s view of people’s health,that is,the unity of theory and practice,the unity of people’s nature and national character,and the unity of revolution and science.The third part focuses on the "what is the meaning" of Mao Zedong’s concept of people’s health.Mao Zedong’s systematic understanding of people’s health has formed the theory of people’s health with Chinese characteristics,which has improved the health consciousness and health level of Chinese people and provided a " China Solution" for other countries to develop people’s health.This scientific theory will provide reference for understanding Xi Jinping’s important discourses on people’s health,and its problem-oriented and practical path will provide beneficial reference for building the system architecture of people’s health in the new era.
