w88 casino News Network (provided by the w88 casino of Marxism)On May 13th, the first phase of the "Teachers and Students" Reading Club of Classics and Frontiers of the w88 casino of Marxism was successfully held in the lecture hall of the Chengxin Building. The reading list of this reading club is "Why Marx is Right" by Eagleton, which was read and shared by Huang Chuangen, deputy dean of the w88 casino of Marxism, and Liu Jiayi, a student majoring in ideological and political education. This reading club was hosted by Associate Professor Wang Lili, Secretary of the Joint Party Branch of Basic Principles of Marxism and Situation and Policy, and undergraduate, master, and doctoral students participated in the study and discussion.
Associate Professor Huang Chuangen focused on the theme of "Classics and Frontiers" and deeply discussed the issues of literature reading and academic innovation in the study of Marxist theory. He pointed out that studying classics requires both "going in" to deeply grasp the core essence of the writings, and "going out" to critically examine the insights and deficiencies of the writings. During the text reading process, Associate Professor Huang Chuangen systematically interpreted the main thrust of the book "Why Marx is Right". This book clarifies misunderstandings about Marxism through a large amount of empirical content, clearly explains the views, goals and intentions of Marxism, and provides a broader way of thinking for us to better understand the appearance of contemporary social problems and to dig deeper into the deep-seated causes and essence behind them. Liu Jiayi introduced the book’s author’s life, writing background, and context. He believed that Marxism guides us to view the world and history with dialectical thinking and a developmental perspective. To correctly understand the essence of Marxism, we must see the essence through phenomena and conduct in-depth exploration of social phenomena from a specific era background.
In the communication session, participating teachers and students talked about their reading experiences, exchanged views on literature reading, text application and other issues, and achieved a common improvement of theoretical cognition through the collision of ideas. Associate Professor Wang Lili summarized this reading club. She pointed out that in the face of digital transformation's higher requirements for individual thinking ability, practical innovation ability and academic dialogue ability, re-reading classics is not only a trace of the original purpose of the theory, but also an important way to master the scientific thinking paradigm and cultivate a critical spirit. She encouraged students to use contemporary Chinese Marxism to interpret the historical development process and future development direction of human society, and to continuously elucidate the new connotation of contemporary Chinese Marxism.
The classics and cutting-edge "teachers and students read together" book club is an academic characteristic activity created by the w88 casino of Marxism.
