Abstract: Xi Jinping Thought on Socialist Culture is a series of new concepts, perspectives, and assertions put forward by General Secretary Xi Jinping, who scientifically grasps the characteristics of contemporary Chinese cultural construction and closely links it with the reality of China’s cultural development. From the perspective of formative logic, Xi Jinping Thought on Socialist Culture has gradually emerged through deepening the cultural thoughts of classical Marxist writers, inheriting the essence of China’s outstanding traditional culture, and continuing the cultural mission of the new era. In terms of contemporary value, the thought highlights the timeless value of China’s outstanding traditional culture, underscores the significance of building a socialist cultural power, and clarifies the guiding principles for international cultural communication and mutual recognition among civilizations. Regarding the practical path, to promote the profound and practical implementation of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialist Culture in the new journey, we must uphold the Party’s overall leadership over propaganda, ideology and cultural work, adhere to the people-centered approach to cultural development, and keep to the principles of upholding the fundamentals and making innovations in China’s outstanding traditional culture.
