The study of women’s role in the construction of family virtues in the new era is based on the realistic environment of the new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics,following the Outline for the Implementation of Civic Morality in the New Era,and taking the family with the new characteristics of the era as the main position and attaching importance to the role of women in the construction of family virtues.Specifically,this means taking the background and requirements of the new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics as the basis,and aiming to enhance the role of women in the construction of family virtues,so that the knowledge of women’s role can be enhanced when people deal with relevant matters in the family,which is of certain practical significance in guiding the construction of family virtues,as well as the construction of civic and social morality.The study of the role of women in the construction of family virtue in the new era is based on the theoretical origins of the family ethics thought of Marx and Engels and Lenin,and the theoretical basis of the discussion of the role of the family and women in the relevant writings of the Chinese Communists.The importance of the construction of family virtue in the new era has the following aspects: firstly,the construction of family virtue is the foundation of social morality,secondly,family education is the primary link of moral education,and once again,family style is a concrete mapping of the Party and political style.The high importance attached by the Party and the State,the advocacy of all aspects of society and the enhanced role of women in promoting family harmony are favourable conditions for women to play their role in the construction of family virtues in the new era.According to the new requirements for family virtue in the "Outline for the Implementation of Civic Morality in the New Era" and the relevant data from surveys conducted by authoritative institutions,an analysis of the current situation of women’s role in the construction of family virtue in the new era can reveal three constraints that affect women’s role in the construction of family virtue: women’s incomplete knowledge of morality,insufficient moral cultivation inherited from one generation to another and imperfect social environment,women’s insufficient motivation for moral cultivation,backward gender concepts The lack of motivation for women’s moral cultivation,the persistence of outdated gender attitudes and the imperfection of relevant legal protection are the reasons that affect the performance of the role.The following are some of the ways to enhance the role of women in the construction of family virtues in the new era: firstly,to give full play to the main role of women in the construction of family virtues in the new era;secondly,to establish a sound system to guarantee the development of women in the construction of family virtues;and thirdly,to create a social environment conducive to the role of women in the construction of family virtues in the new era. |
