Patriotism education is to cultivate students' views and feelings of loving the motherland, as well as their strong will to defend the motherland and safeguard its dignity. Internationalism education is to educate students to uphold and maintain unity with the proletariat, the oppressed nation and the oppressed people all over the world and all peace-loving organizations and people who uphold justice, and actively support and assist the proletarian and oppressed people all over the world in their revolutionary struggle. Socialist patriotism and internationalism are closely related. This is the noble moral quality of China citizens, and it is also one of the contents of school moral education.

Patriotism is one of the deepest feelings for one's motherland, which has been consolidated for thousands of years. This kind of feeling connects the individual with the destiny of the motherland and is an indispensable noble character for safeguarding national independence, survival and development. However, all patriotism advocated by the exploiting class has great historical and class limitations, all of which are aimed at consolidating the rule of the exploiting class. Socialist patriotism is a new type of patriotism, which gets rid of the limitations of the exploiting class, observes the fate of the country and the nation from the standpoint of the people, and handles the relationship between individuals and the motherland with historical materialism; It is related to the struggle of working people against exploitation and oppression and for liberation; It is based on respecting the rights of people of all ethnic groups and opposing national prejudice.

The patriotism of China people is socialist patriotism. It is mainly manifested in loving the great People's Republic of China (PRC) (PRC), China and the socialist system, and actively fighting to consolidate the people's democratic dictatorship and oppose all plots to subvert the people's political power and foreign aggression; Love the people, territory, resources, culture, language and fine historical traditions of the motherland; Have national pride and pride, despise the inferiority complex of worshipping foreign things and obsessing foreign things.

The unity of China people's patriotism and internationalism is an important symbol that distinguishes them from the exploiting classes, narrow nationalism and chauvinism. Socialist patriots are also internationalists. The cause of communism is a great international revolutionary cause. The struggles of the proletariat and people of all countries against exploitation and oppression, imperialism, hegemonism and colonialism, safeguarding world peace and promoting human progress are interrelated and need mutual support and help. At the same time of socialist patriotism education, internationalism education must be carried out.
