At present, ideological and political education has a trend of returning to and embracing daily life. How to treat this phenomenon? The author believes that the so-called return of ideological and political education to daily life is just the search and integration of the life world and the resistance and denial of the hegemony of scientism. However, the discourse of ideological and political education that fully embraces and caters to the life world cannot go from one extreme to the other. Due to the lack of necessary reflection on the daily life world, in the ordinary, conservative and daily life world scene, the attention to the subject's creativity is suppressed or even lost.

First of all, ideological and political education should return to the open rather than closed world of daily life. This means that ideological and political education can't stand still, can't confine itself to a narrow scope, can't only care about the daily life world on campus where college students live, or only care about the so-called abstract and symbolic daily life world in college books. Instead, we should strengthen the contact and communication among schools, families and society with an open attitude, especially advocate the recipients of ideological and political education to strengthen their contact with the outside world and advocate the construction of a dynamic, open, shared and vivid dynamic.

The return of ideological and political education to the open life world means that ideological and political education should grasp the educational object with creative thinking. Ideological and political education is facing a contradictory and diverse life world, and different communication subjects need dialogue, communication, compromise and consultation to reach a certain degree of agreement.

Secondly, to return to the daily life world, we should emphasize the reflective power of the recipients of ideological and political education, and prevent them from indulging in the daily life world too much, leading to the loss of life direction and the sinking of reality. By criticizing the problems of daily life, we can push the ideological and political education itself beyond the shackles of daily life and reach the realm of truth, goodness and beauty.

Of course, returning to daily life and emphasizing a kind of public construction does not dilute the ideological function of ideological and political education, nor does it require ideological and political education to passively adapt to life. On the contrary, as an important part of national "soft power" construction and political socialization, ideological and political education must face up to the contradictions and struggles between different ideologies, strengthen the persistence and promotion of socialist ideology, and strengthen the guidance and transcendence of socialist core values to daily life.
