The Innovation Study Of Ideological And Political Education From The Perspective Of Aesthetics Education

Ideological and political education must let the educated put aside the utilitarianism.To accept ideological theories,political views,and moral philosophy in the system of ideological and political education,the point is to arouse the emotion recognition of the educated and finally establish connections between the mind and the advanced ideology,deepen the inner experience,inspire the consciousness on the ideological level,and reflect in the actual speech and manners.The aroused emotion recognition should be pleasant,sensual,non-utilitarian and free.This happiness and sensitivity not only rests on the sensory perception of the educated,but also initiates the trace to delight and expectation of the pleasure of the educated,so as to explore,create,and enjoy.Only the sensory pleasure merely stop people’s expecting pleasure,but it cannot comment on the meaning behind the surface of things.In aesthetic relationships,the educated,as the subject of appreciating,face objects which are not a part or a link in the universal contact but self representation in a relatively independent environment.Perception,transference,association,and comprehension set up a bridge between emotion and rationality,giving ideological and political education a further step in people’s ideological shifts.Borrowing the aesthetic and interdisciplinary theories,this dissertation studies the innovation of ideological and political education from the perspective of Aesthetics.It is analyzed from the theoretical basis of ideological and political education,the necessity of the aesthetic study of ideological and political education innovation,the relationship of subject-object,the building of aesthetic relationship,educational methods,educational carrier and other aspects.Including the introduction and conclusion,the dissertation consists of seven chapters.Based on Karl Marx’s thought on full-development of human beings,Aesthetics and Aesthetic Education comprehensively investigates the theories of Western Classical Aesthetics and Aesthetic Education,the interdisciplinary theories of the contemporary Western Aesthetics and phenomenology,psychology,and Hermeneutics,and Chinese traditional aesthetic education.At the same time,Aesthetics and Aesthetic Education has not developed smoothly,following the law of the unity of opposites--perception and rational cognition.Besides,the studies and development of Aesthetics and Aesthetic Education helps other subjects grow well.The inter-community of Aesthetics and ideological and political education makes Aesthetic Education used and carried out in ideological and political education,and becomes the theoretical foundation of ideological and political education Innovation from the perspective of Aesthetics.The combination of Aesthetics and Aesthetic Education and ideological and political education need view ideological and political education from the perspective of Aesthetics.Innovation is a kind of critical spirit,scientific spirit,pioneering spirit,autonomous spirit,and also adventurous spirit.ideological and political education innovation should be guided by the socialist core value system and must emancipate the mind,seek truth from facts,keep up with the times,and be pragmatic.To carry out the aesthetic study of ideological and political education innovation is a need for cultivating and fulfilling the socialist core value system,adapting to multi-cultural contexts,and responding to global developmentThe aesthetic study of ideological and political education innovation also has to cross the barrier of fusion of interdisciplinary theories,absence of methods,and conflicting ideas so as to fulfill the role of Aesthetics in ideological and political education.The paper reviews the history and the status quo of the aesthetic study of ideological and political education after our Reform and Opening policy.Since the policy has been carried out,Aesthetic Education gains more and more importance in cultivating sentiments,promoting ideological cultivation.At the Eighteenth of the Third Plenary Session,it was written in Decisions on the comprehensive reform of certain major issues for the first time,which created an unprecedented fine environment for Aesthetic Education to develop.Meanwhile,the popularity of aesthetic activities brought by new media technologies and arts in life offered unparallel supports for aesthetic activities to develop in the field of ideological and political education.Meanwhile,the subject and object of the aesthetic study of ideological and political education also gains fully new defining,and take the aesthetic relationship as the object of ideological and political education.As the subject position of the educated is confirmed,the subject position of the educated in the aesthetic relationship also is confirmed.The construction of aesthetic relationships make the communication between the two subjects come true.The Non-utilitarian,emotionality,and universality which aesthetic relationship possess is a prerequisite for aesthetic relationships being the object of ideological and political education.The construction of aesthetic relationships in the activities of ideological and political education contributes to theories and methods of Aesthetics completely applied in activities of ideological and political education.In the process of construction,several unities should be payed attention to:nonulititarian of aesthetic relationships should be united with the purpose of ideological and political education;the sense of appreciating beauties should be united with the sensibility of ideological and political education;the diversity of appreciating beauties should be united with the unity ideological and political education.Appreciating beauties integrates sense with sensibility,which start from the perception of sensory organs because the forms of beautiful things arouse the sympathy and empathy,extend imagination,and help aesthetic understanding come into being.Just due to the emotional penetration,appreciating beautiful things possesses the deep level of consciousness shift that sensibility could not reach.To construct aesthetic relationships in ideological and political education,educators need to value the use of perceptual materials,adjust the distance of appreciating,ensure non-utilitarian of appreciating,make active use of empathy,cultivate imagination of the educated,and guide the educated to finish the transition from aesthetic perception to aesthetic understanding.The clear analysis of the key aesthetic elements offers a prerequisite and basis to methods of ideological and political education.Based on the analysis,the paper provides the expecting type method,intuitive type method,empathy type method,associative method and etc.The innovation of ideological and political education enriches the method system of ideological and political education,and guarantees the execution of aesthetic theories and means in the practice of ideological and political education.In practice,we must vigorously carry out the aesthetic education,apply the visual arts in shaping the aesthetic object,actively explore and exploit ideological and cultural resources,and promote the construction of aesthetic relationships in all aspects.Moreover,the aesthetic study of ideological and political education needs the innovation work of educational environment,community environment and media environment.We build the classroom culture based on dialogues and communications,the lab culture with the core of sensory experiences,and the system of educational environment.We also build the community culture which aims at socialist core values,the campus culture which is guided by school motto and school spirit,the community environment system which focuses on students’aesthetic tastes.We innovate media technologies so as to build the media environment which promotes advanced cultures and the media assessment system.With the method of structuralism,the dissertation compares,analyzes,and fuses theories of Aesthetics and ideological and political education.It analyzes and interprets the innovation of ideological and political education,through the inductive and deductive methods,and interdisciplinary theories of Aesthetic Psychology,Phenomenology and ideological and political education.Moreover,it explores the effective ways of ideological and political education in the subject-object relationship,educational methods,and educational links of ideological and political education,through the method of relating theory with practice,This study helps propaganda and education departments and university teachers and students to grasp the basic principle of ideological and political education from the perspective of Aesthetics.It improves the operability in concrete work,enhances the actual results,and further enriches the theoretical study of ideological and political education.
