——Gao Xiang, written for the 35th anniversary of the founding of "Chinese Social Sciences", 167139135 years ago, that is, in 1980, "Chinese Social Sciences" was launched. This lucky person who was born and grew up in the new era of reform and opening up has carried a unique mission and condensed many expectations from the beginning. Comrade Hu Qiaomu, then president of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, was full of affection for this publication and devoted a lot of effort. He determined the direction and editorial policy of the journal of "Chinese Social Sciences", emphasizing the need to "take Marxism as the guide, study social history and academic thought at home and abroad, enhance international academic exchanges, and serve China's socialist modernization and the development of philosophy and social sciences in China"; It is clearly required that the quality of papers published in "Chinese Social Sciences" should be first-class in the country, which can represent the level of social science in the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and even our country, and can promote the development of philosophy and social science research in the country. Over the past 35 years, "Chinese Social Sciences" has never forgotten the instructions and trust of its founders, always remembered its responsibilities, and strived to walk in the forefront of the times and academic progress. Since 1980, Social Sciences in China has published more than 3,800 articles. These articles, published in different journals, vividly and profoundly reflect the spiritual pursuit of contemporary Chinese scholars and their thinking and response to the problems of the times. It can be said that "Chinese Social Sciences" is a microcosm of China's academic path in the new era. "The wind and clouds are majestic, and the pen and ink are open." Looking back on the past, "Chinese Social Sciences" has come along the way, there is no lack of glory and glory, but also experienced twists and turns and confusion. Reflecting on and summarizing the experiences and lessons learned will help us better grasp the future of Chinese academia. Marxism is the banner and soul of contemporary Chinese scholarship, and Marxist scholarship in China was born around the May Fourth Movement of the last century, and gradually became the mainstream of progressive scholarship in the great social history controversy of the twenties and thirties of the last century. After the founding of New China, the humanities and social sciences circles formed an academic discourse system guided by Marxism, which was the foundation and starting point for China's academic progress in the new era. Since its birth, "Chinese Social Sciences" has been in the midst of drastic and profound social changes, facing the mutual agitation and competition of various trends of thought. On the one hand, it actively advocates scholars to emancipate their minds, boldly explore and innovate, and cheer for the progress of the times; On the one hand, it is unequivocally declared that taking Marxism as the guide is an inevitable choice for Chinese history since modern times and the only way for Chinese academia. By adhering to Marxism, Chinese academia fundamentally adheres to the scientific world outlook and methodology; By mastering Marxism, Chinese academia will fundamentally grasp its own future. Marxism is not a dogma that constrains academic innovation; On the contrary, it has never left the road of development of human civilization, never conservatized, never resting on its laurels, the most unnarrow sectarian ideological system, with the broadest mind and tolerant ability, good at absorbing and borrowing all the ideological essence of all mankind through critical methods, so as to enrich and develop itself. The character of Marxism that keeps pace with the times requires scholars to stand at the forefront of social progress and constantly open up new ideological and academic realms in the dual exploration of theory and practice. This is the mission of contemporary Chinese scholars and the spiritual pursuit that Chinese intellectuals should pursue. It is precisely from the standpoint of adhering to and developing Marxism that "Chinese Social Sciences" organized and published a series of articles with great influence, reflecting the theoretical responsibility and academic courage of "Chinese Social Sciences" and Chinese scholars. Serving socialism with Chinese characteristics is the fundamental purpose of contemporary Chinese academia, concern for hundreds of millions of people, and concern for the fate of mankind has always been the prerequisite for the development, continuation and development of academic civilization. "Warriors must not fail to carry forward their willpower, and the task is heavy and the road is long", "Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to study for the saints, and open peace for all generations", which has forged the lofty character and awe-inspiring style of generations of Chinese scholars. Contemporary Chinese scholarship must inherit and carry forward this timeless tradition, and unswervingly provide ideological and intellectual support for the progress of our time. Service reality and academic research are not contradictory, but complement each other. The vitality of academia has always come from the deep pursuit of major practical issues and from the ultimate concern for the future and destiny of mankind. Academia constantly draws innovative materials and inspiration from reality, and the reality of human life is also enhanced and improved with the continuous progress of academia. For more than 30 years, China's most innovative academic achievements are most likely to become "heirloom" academic documents, all of which are full of deep feelings of home and country, and all of them clearly and directly answer the questions of the times. It is precisely from the attention and thinking on major theoretical and practical issues, and from the great practice of the masses of the people in creating history, that our scholars have gained the impetus and source of ideological innovation. Taking the articles published in "Chinese Social Sciences" as an example, the articles focusing on the implementation of the rural household joint production contract responsibility system, the establishment of the socialist market economic system, the improvement of the socialist legal system and the promotion of governing the country according to law, and the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity resonate with the pulse of the times, correspond to the voice of the people, and have distinct theoretical and academic innovation value. Needless to say, there is still room for improvement in Chinese scholars in insisting on independent thinking and serving reality. But this should not be a reason to distance ourselves from reality, evade mission and responsibility, and Chinese scholars' feet must stand firmly on the hot soil of practice. Otherwise, "hiding in a small building to become a whole", "I don't know if there is a Han, no matter Wei Jin", no matter how laborious and laborious, the final formation can only be a delicate "paper tiger". History has repeatedly proved that one of the most basic prerequisites for academic development is to plunge into the torrent of progress of the times, to fuel the waves, to sail the rapids, rather than watching coldly, let alone moving against the current. The formation of an academic discourse system with Chinese characteristics is the firm pursuit of contemporary Chinese academia, and on our planet, the culture of each nation is unique and irreplaceable. This is especially true of the knowledge system of the humanities and social sciences, which is a high-level component of human civilization. In today's era, with the advancement of information technology and the development of transportation, the ties between different countries and different nationalities are becoming closer and closer, cultures are blending, knowledge is converging, and academic globalization seems to be becoming a grand "feast". However, appearance does not equal essence, fashion does not equal direction, and truly mature scholars should not lose themselves in the hustle and bustle and carnival. We need to think coldly about the globalization of academia. There is no doubt that in this day and age, there is neither a way out nor a way out for academic isolation. To develop academically, we must have a global vision, and we must be good at borrowing and learning from the reasonable elements of other countries, including international mainstream academia. However, we must also see that academic exchanges should be equal and two-way, and abandoning the national nature of humanities and social science research and using Western academic concepts to transform our academic culture can only be a dead end. In fact, we have both successful experiences and painful lessons on how to correctly handle Sino-foreign academic relations. For some time, some disciplines have overemphasized the advanced and universal nature of Western academia, blindly superstitious and worshiped Western scholarship and theory, hindering our independent thinking and theoretical innovation. In the face of the turbulence of academic thought at home and abroad, we certainly need to have a broad vision, a broad mind and a humble attitude, but the premise is to adhere to our academic values, academic positions and academic principles, adhere to independent thinking, express our own opinions, and take me as the main and use for me. Chinese scholars cannot blindly be students of foreigners, nor can they give up the dignity and self-confidence of national scholarship. Chinese academia must speak Chinese, and must form a Chinese school of humanities and social science research. This is the unswerving academic pursuit of Social Sciences in China. Adhering to the scientific spirit is the basic principle of contemporary Chinese academia, and respecting academia and treating academia with a prudent attitude is a consistent fine tradition of Chinese intellectuals. Qian Daxin, a scholar of the Qing Dynasty, said, "Learning is a matter of a thousand years" and "the study of Confucianism must begin with seeking truth from facts." In the history of the academic development of Marxism in China, the true masters have always been models of rigorous scholarship. However, in recent years, there have been various drawbacks in the academic atmosphere and academic atmosphere, the trend of self-respect and self-respect has gradually declined, and the habit of vulgar kitsch has spread; The wind of seeking truth and rigor is not happy, and the spirit of frivolity and greed is flourishing; Plagiarism occurs from time to time, and there are many low-level repetition results. At the same time, the voice of criticism faded, and the character of insisting on truth was not good. The so-called academic reviews are often full of obscurities and flattery; The so-called academic criticism often avoids the important and the light, and avoids the real and attacking the false. This situation not only poses a serious challenge to the editing of academic journals, including Social Sciences in China, but also affects the image of contemporary Chinese academia. If Chinese academia wants to go better and further on the road to the future, it must put an end to glitz and return to the basics; Adhere to the spirit of science, professional ethics, and academic rules; Adhere to the unity of being a person, doing things, and doing learning, be honest and honest, do things in a down-to-earth manner, and do learning in a down-to-earth manner; We should regard scientific research as a matter of the ages, respect it with caution, not be confused by false names, not be tempted by short-term profits, be down-to-earth, and accumulate thick and thin, so that the research results can truly withstand the test of practice, the people's comments, and the test of history, so that our academic circles will have taste, dignity, and integrity, and return to the simple and upright way. "Joy has flourished for a hundred years." 35 years is only a brief moment in human history. However, in the past 35 years, China has created a historical miracle of human development and progress. Chinese humanities and social sciences have benefited from this era, and have also become boosters and cheerers of the progress of the times. "Chinese Social Sciences" represents the sublimation of knowledge in our time, reflects the pursuit of contemporary scholars' thinking, and witnesses the changes and development of society. In the years to come, "Chinese Social Sciences" will walk with explorers on the way to the pursuit of truth, and leave a rich and colorful chapter. November 2015(AI翻译)
