Research On The Principle Of “Converting Theory Into Methods And Theory Into Virtue” Of Ideological And Political Education In The New Era

For a long time,the academic circle has held a highly consistent view on the connotation of ideological and political educational principles.But in its dubious extension presentations,only the principle of combining theory with practice is universally admired,which fully shows the important role of the principle plays in ideological and political education and the adherence of the academic circle to combining theory with practice that the Marxist style of study emphasizes.The realistic field and development implication shown in the historical position of the new era stipulate the aims of ideological and political education,which refers to carrying out the fundamental task of strengthening moral education and cultivating people and the mission of the times to foster new generations.To accomplish the mission of the new era,it is necessary to stick to the principle of combining theory with practice,relying on its more explicit practical orientation and highly clear,specific and operable operation mechanism,so as to effectively promote the implementation of the new requirements of ideological and political education in the new era.In order to implement Marxist style of study combining theory with practice,Feng Qi put forward a“supplement slogan”——“converting theory into methods and theory into virtue”.The“theory”here mainly refers to the classical Marxism theory and the sinicized Marxism theory,including the Party rules and regulations such as political rules;“methods”mainly refer to various methods and methodologies transformed from the basic principles of Marxism;“virtue”mainly refers to a higher degree of cognition and consciousness on the standpoints,views and methods of Marxism,such as higher political consciousness,a firm proletarian position and the inherent quality and character in line with the development requirements of the times.The internal operation mechanism of“converting theory into methods and theory into virtue”——“indoctrination,internalization,externalization and habituation”inherently requires the“complete ideological and political education agenda”.In fact,people complain a lot about the difficulty of combining theory with practice;they know the importance of the link between theory and practice,but are ignorant of how to contact them;they unconsciously recoil from the unity of knowing and doing;there is a dichotomy between how to conduct oneself and how to learn,and disconnection between science and life,leading to the phenomenon of“double-faced men”.The agenda can help to overcome these problems and give full play to the guiding and normative functions of the principle of combining theory with practice,which has distinct practical pertinence and significant effectiveness.In view of this,the theme of this paper is determined as follows:to refine and concretize the principle of combining theory with practice into the principle of“converting theory into methods and theory into virtue”,that is,to elevate the principle of“converting theory into methods and theory into virtue”to the principle of ideological and political education in the new era.General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized the new calls of times for the ideological and political courses in his speech on March 18^th,saying“no matter how the course is taught,it should eventually guide students to set up correct ideals and beliefs and to learn the correct way of thinking”,which has pointed out the direction for the scientificity,feasibility and validity of this topic and has become the most important following of the reasoning of the paper.The proposal of the principle of“converting theory into methods and theory into virtue”of ideological and political education in the new era is deeply rooted in the theory of Marxist style of study,continuous revolution and man?s free and all-round development.In the process of sinicization of Marxism,Feng Qi?s analysis of epistemological thoughts on the debate between name and reality and between knowledge and practice that have been going on for thousands of years,and the creative transformation and innovative development of the theory of ideal personality,provide national cultural enlightenment for the proposal of the principle of“converting theory into methods and theory into virtue”,and inject new vitality into the ideological and political education in the new era.This paper explains the legitimacy,inevitability and necessity of the principle of“converting theory into methods and theory into virtue”as the principle of ideological and political education in the new era,and the activities of“studying philosophy and applying philosophy”and other educational practices in the new era show the grand practical narration of converting theory into methods and theory into virtue,which respectively offer the principle of“converting theory into methods and theory into virtue”theoretical and practical justification.The principle of“converting theory into methods and theory into virtue”plays an important role of methodological guidance,which helps to carry out the new requirements for ideological and political education in the new era like“the integration of eight characteristics of teaching”,“six demands for teachers”,“the practicalness of ideological and political courses”and so on,implement the fundamental task——“strengthening moral education and cultivating people”of ideological and political courses in the new era and further study major issues like the theory of“indoctrination”,the theory of“lifeline”and the basic laws of ideological and political education in the new era.The following point can be fully explained by the theoretical reflection on the“complete ideological and political education agenda”which the practical dialectics indicated by the history of the party?s ideological and political education requires as for the principle of“converting theory into methods and theory into virtue”.The lack,perfunctoriness,fracture,obstruction or muddling along of the operation mechanism of“indoctrination,internalization,externalization and habituation”,will lead to the impossibility of converting“theory”into“methods”or“theory”into“virtue”and the“incompatibility”between theory and practice.In terms of the cognition and practice of the operation mechanism of the principle of“converting theory into methods and theory into virtue”and the field of basic theoretical innovation and practical development of ideological and political education under the guidance of the principle,the ideological and political scholars should establish a high level of professional introspection,professional consciousness and practical self-government as soon as possible.
