Rituals are a historical and cultural phenomenon that has served as a guide for values and behavioral norms in both the public and private spheres of life.As human civilization progresses and the economy develops,the state emerges as a product of the regulation of class contradictions.The state inherently contains systems of power operation,mainstream ideology and political policy systems that are difficult to be expressed and perceived concretely,while political rituals,as a branch of rituals,can build a bridge between the two and assume a trans-formative role by virtue of their exclusively political character.Specifically,through symbols and acts of meaning,political rituals make national connotations that cannot be directly understood and felt visible,audible,tactile and perceptible,and play a role in the political life of the nation in terms of transmission of ideas,guidance of values,national unity and continuity of spirit,manifesting the sense of national community and cohesion of national identity in a multidimensional and mufti-layered manner.For the individual,national identity is a relatively stable state of consciousness and emotion in which members of society clearly understand their identity and belonging as "who I am" and are filled with a sense of attachment,loyalty,home and devotion to the nation.For the state,it is an important spiritual force for the legitimacy of power,the maintenance of social harmony and the externalization of common emotional values in the construction of the state.The realization of national identity and the extent to which it is realized are directly related to the overall security of the state.In practice,political rituals construct knowledge by recreating historical scenes,awakening collective memories and confirming identity;they gain emotional support by creating a cultural atmosphere,promoting national spirit and gathering collective emotions;and they extend meaning by proclaiming national achievements,shaping symbols and portraying national images.The logical line of national identity is built through the cascade of knowledge,emotion and meaning,generating the power of identity and unifying it in the action of the national rejuvenation process.The world is in a state of great change,international relations are complex,and the domestic environment is entering a new stage of historical development,making it imperative to enhance national identity.Historical nihilism,hedonism,liberalism and the emergence of pluralistic values have posed challenges to the construction of civic identity,resulting in the use of political rituals to construct national identity,resulting in a generalized entertainment interpretation,a weak political stance and a lack of participation,and other phenomena that need to be addressed.In the new era,the comprehensive construction of a modern and strong socialist state cannot be achieved without the concerted efforts of Chinese children.While citizenship is inherent,the formation and consolidation of national identity is a complex and continuous dynamic process that is not only shaped by the state,but also influenced by the environment in which individuals live and the events and experiences they experience.In this new context,it is important to bring together the state,society and individuals in order to optimize the effectiveness of political rituals through effective initiatives at all stages of the ritual.By fully exploring historical and cultural resources and adding new thematic content of the times,reflecting the historical and contemporary nature of the rituals;building an all-round three-dimensional communication platform with the help of the media and new technologies;innovating the expression of ritual discourse based on Marxism and socialist core values;showing the approachability of the rituals and increasing the participation and interaction of citizens;and perpetuating their connotations through ritual products,political rituals can be adapted to the events and situations,and be new and innovative.In such a way,political rituals are transformed,renewed and improved by the times.In such a way,citizens are able to confirm their identities,assimilate their emotions,internalize their values and internalize their realities in the practice of political rituals,construct new ways of thinking and modernizing their national identity,constantly building a sense of community,constructing the largest "concentric circle",and providing solid building power for the comprehensive construction of a strong socialist country and the realization of the Chinese dream.
