Chinese nation community consciousness was mentioned in 2014 by President Xi Jinping in two important meetings,that is,the Xinjiang Working Symposium and the Central Working Conference on Minzu Affairs,marking that the concept,which appeared in Chinese academic research in the early 21st century,has enter the state-led construction.The concept was again stressed in Tibetan Working Symposium in 2015and was included in the report of the 19th national congress of the Communist Party of China?CPC?in 2017,further demonstrating its importance.The Chinese nation is facing with the serious situation from home and abroad in the process of realizing the great revival with concentrated effort in the unprecedented change.As a response to the challenge,casting Chinese nation community consciousness is an innovation to solve the minzu problems in a country with more than one ethnic group,and the realistic need to gather strength,construct socialism,achieve common prosperity,maintain national unity and stability.Therefore,it is of great significance and practical value to carry out the research of Chinese nation community consciousness.Spirit interpretations of important meetings related to minzu work at the national level in recent years show that strengthening identity is accompanied with casting Chinese nation community consciousness,and a complete“five identities”expression is formed in the continuous summaries.“Eight adherences”,the connotation of correct path for solving minzu problems with Chinese characteristics,which was put forward in the Central Working Conference on Minzu Affairs in 2014,was upgraded to“nine adherences”in the National Ethnic Unity and Progress Commendation Conference in2019.President Xi Jinping has expounded the importance and necessity of strengthening the“five identities”in the upgrade,which is the key focus of minzu work with casting Chinese nation community consciousness as the main line in the new era.The study of relevant literatures shows that the definition and connotation of Chinese nation community consciousness are interpreted variously by numerous scholars.The majority of the interpretations discuss the close relationship between identity and Chinese nation community consciousness,but there is no exact conclusion about the value direction and the type of the identity.Since the basic concept and the key content are essential to constructing a theory system and developing the theory interpretation,it is meaningful to do conceptual extraction of Chinese nation community consciousness.Taking Marxist minzu theory as the basic guiding ideology,combining the theories of Marxist social development,the community and identity,based on the probation of basic concepts,the logic path of forming key identities of Chinese nation community consciousness is explored.The idea that five identities is the core identity of Chinese nation community consciousness is put forward and confirmed in theory.The formation,development and consolidation of core identities is analyzed with the change of minzu policies and effect of minzu work in new China.The value orientation of the policy has been changing from justice as fairness to justice as equality.The focus of policy design has been changing from subjectivity to publicness.The practical work has been changing from concentrating on ethnic affairs to multi-fields.Identity construction has been extended and penetrated in practice and discourse system,from inland to borderland,from minorities to the general public,with integration of multi-identities in a unified multi-ethnic state.Negative influences are explored from ideology,economy development,allocation of public social resources and minzu policy.It is suggested that Chinese nation community consciousness be fostered consistently with strengthening five identities with powerful political leadership,inclusive democratic governance,economic construction with mutual benefit,shared social rights and welfares,and common spiritual homeland.This is a basic research on sinicization of Marxist minzu theory.
