National Cultural Subjectivity Research Under The Background Of Globalization

As early as150years ago, Marx has proposed the Theory of World History foreseeingly,which hasn’t caused enough attention at that time. Since the eighty’s of20century, globalizationwhich Marx called the World History is increasingly fierce, developed into systematic reality andtrend gradually. For the development of national culture, globalization is a double-edged sword.How to develop national culture and to carry forward the subjectivity of national culture underthe background of globalization is the main problem discussed.This text is divided into three parts. The first part is Marx’s thought about globalizationtheory----Marx’s Theory of World History. In this part, we discussed the background and themain contents of marx’s Theory of World History. Geographical Discovery of15centuryconnected the entire earth, which established the material basis for Marx’s theory of worldhistory; The modern bourgeoisie thinkers’ especially Hegel’s thoughts of world history providedideological basis for Marx’s theory of world history. Marx thought, the common development ofproductivity and communication is the foundational power to make the national history changeto world history. And by the development of capitalism mode of production, the machineindustry and world market first created world history. And the course of world history finallypoints to communism and the liberation of the people.The second part is about the globalization and the situation of the national culture under thebackground of globalization. Globalization is the contemporary form of world history and themain characteristic of The Times. Today, globalization has become an inescapable fact. The trendof economic integration, political international and cultural diversity is deepening. All nationasand states of the world are involved in the tide of globalization. For national cultures,globalization is a great opportunity but also a big challenge. Globalization has brought a newvision, new platform, new technology and new resources to develop itself. Of course, thechallenge of globalization to national culture is unprecedented, cultural imperialism and thecrisis of national cultural identity make the survival condition of national culture unoptimistic.The third part is to carry forward the subjectivity of national culture under the background ofglobalization, which is the focus of the paper. In the context of globalization, to achieve greaterdevelopment and prosperity of Chinese culture, we must carry forward the subjectivity ofnational culture. The subjectivity of national culture includes four aspects： culturalself-awareness, cultural self-confidence, cultural self-reflect and cultural self-improvement.Cultural self-awareness is the point of view to study our culture, cultural self-confidence andcultural self-reflect is the attitude to our culture, and cultural self-improvement is the only way to the development and prosperity of culture. Today, in China, the subjectivity of national cultureis seriously lacking, the whole society is immersed in the tide of westernization. We must carryforward the subjectivity of national cultural. To carry forward the subjectivity of national culture,we must be rational and not radical. University, enterprise and governments should act from theirrespective functions, inheritance and innovate Chinese culture actively, to contribute to thegreater development and prosperity Chinese culture.The innovation of this paper maybe: under the background of globalization, to developnational culture we must carry forward the subjectivity of national cultural.
