Cultural Confidence: Historical Context and Internal Logic with a Discussion on Chinese Cultural Narrative Since 1949

The conception of cultural Confidence is a key to understand the construction of contemporary Chinese culture. It incorporates excellent Chinese traditional culture, revolutionary culture and advanced socialist culture into one framework of cultural narrative. The incorporation aims to settle "the quarrel of the ancients and the moderns" on Chinese culture narrative from the standpoint of the mainstream ideology, which would help "China" regain the integrity of history. On this basis, it is also an attempt to theoretically integrate the heterogeneous elements of contemporary Chinese culture, so as to find the greatest common divisor on cultural narrative.
