All aspects must be confident in your own way ｜ Seeking knowledge

Recently, the topic of "degree uniforms" on the Internet is very hot. Peng Lin, a professor at Tsinghua University, explicitly opposed to wear a degree in college. He believes that he is a student trained in China how to wear Western clothing. Professor Peng Lin said that he graduated earlier. He did not take a degree photo, and he could make up the shooting later. He was unwilling. Some netizens believe that the degree suit has been separated from cultural and religious significance and has become a relatively common ceremony costume. It is not necessary to go online.

What do you think of this? From a deep perspective, this is still a national cultural identity issue, and we must take it seriously. The clothes are not simple. From the perspective of the source, there are many profound significance behind the clothes, just like Japanese kimonos, Western bachelor clothes, Chinese Zhongshan clothes, Tang costumes, each piece of clothes represent the culture of a country, and is known by the Chinese people. No matter where the clothes are in the country, when it is put on, it will have a sense of ritual, which is recognized by his compatriots and reached a common cultural recognition in virtue.

This matter can be linked to another thing. Not long ago, Renmin University of China announced that it will start from 2022 and no longer provide relevant data to the ranking institutions in Western World University. Those who also have clearly withdrawn from the selection are Nanjing University and Lanzhou University, which have been announced that they will no longer provide any relevant data to international university ranking institutions.

These colleges and universities withdraw from the "Western ranking" are serious and prudent decisions, and they are unwilling to continue to follow the "foreign indicators". It should be said that getting rid of the "foreign indicators" instructions is the return of China's education initiative. The return of education initiative is the return of cultural return. Only when cultural return can we realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

Looking at the two things together, I think it is a manifestation of self -confidence and self -confidence in Chinese education.

For a long time, under the guidance of the "integration theory", the standards of everything are based on Western standards, and everything is recognized as the west. This problem is not a small problem. After listening to the standards set by others, everything must be obeyed by others, and it is also trending. What are the conditions for evaluation standards? Why are there such regulations, there must be a problem of value choice.

Behind the evaluation criteria is the comparison power, and the person who has mastered this power will act in accordance with their country's wishes, and to carry out subtle cultural colonies to other countries, especially the post -developed countries. There are many examples of such examples.

For another example, the Nobel Prize in Literature and the Nobel Peace Prize. These awards standards are formulated by the West according to their own values. If we want to win the prize, we must meet the values ​​behind these standards. The major event is equivalent to using the values ​​of others as its own value orientation. In the field of social sciences, there are no completely objective standards and awards. In this way, the two awards will be based on some ideology when determining the awards. Want to win the prize? Then you need to cater to such ideological standards in your own work, at least meet this ideological standard. Only in this way can you win a prize. As for the value of art aesthetics, it is still second, because the aesthetics of various ethnic groups are completely different. For example, our Tang poetry and Song poetry, the West is difficult to understand its artistic value, and has left the Chinese language and Chinese environment, including many excellent Chinese works, including poetry, it is difficult to feel the special charm of the peak of art.

In recent years, many people's "Nobel Awards" complex seems to have won the Nobel Prize in Literature. Is Western standard just aesthetic standards?

In recent years, we have suffered losses in culture. For example, some film and television works have not showed that the Chinese people's ignorance and blackened works are not good. On the contrary, we can get prizes on the Western Film Festival.

Today, these world -renowned school rankings are similar to the Nobel Prize in Literature. It really has nothing to do. The Western world promulgated such awards and rankings, with their own purpose.

Objectively speaking, the West has taken the lead in modernization, and has the right to initiative and discourse in the modern discourse system, so that the third world countries follow their values. With the modernization of other countries in the world, it is inevitable to get rid of the Western discourse system.

In recent years, some of us must call the West, the paper is also based on Western magazines, and the university evaluation is also the West. The goal that I pursue my life is all unconfident in their own culture.

What do Western countries think of itself? Many years ago, "Reference News" published a short article. An American member publicly said: Do you think we let Chinese basketball players come to the United States to play in the United States? No, because he played in the United States, there are more than one billion people in China to see the NBA live. Over time, they will feel that the United States cannot defeat, they will be afraid of us, they will agree with the US values, and they will become a pro -American power. It is an invisible action that the entire Chinese recognize the United States. Therefore, cultural self -confidence is by no means a light description, which is a great relationship.
