A Three-Dimensional Study on the Deep Integration of Excellent Traditional Chinese Culture with University Ideological and Political Courses— Guided by the “Two Integrations” Methodology

Abstract

Against the backdrop of intensified global cultural collisions and ideological competition, deeply integrating excellent traditional Chinese culture (ETCC) into university ideological and political courses (IPCs) has become an imperative of our times. Guided by General Secretary Xi Jinping's methodology of “Two Integrations,” this paper examines the pathways for this integration from three dimensions: value, theory, and practice. The value dimension emphasizes fostering moral conviction and strengthening the spiritual foundation to meet needs such as safeguarding cultural security, preserving the spiritual lineage, and constructing a spiritual framework. The theoretical dimension reveals the mutually constitutive breakthroughs between Marxism and traditional Chinese dialectical thinking, encompassing methodological complementarity, logical coherence of values, and discursive system innovation. The practical dimension involves constructing a comprehensive educational ecosystem by localizing teaching content, modernizing traditional resources, and fostering inter-platform collaborative education, thereby internalizing the value of traditional culture. These three dimensions synergize and co-constitute each other, collectively providing methodological support and practical paradigms for cultivating cultural confidence among youth and forging a new generation capable of shouldering the mission of national rejuvenation.
