Keywords: political socialization of college students; Essence; Characteristics; function
First, the essence of college students' political socialization (First, the connotation of college students' political socialization
The theory of political socialization is studied from two angles: individual and society. Political socialization studies how individuals accept political culture and gradually form their own political ideas and behaviors, that is, the formation and development of individual "political self". Study how society spreads political culture from a social perspective. Therefore, the concept of political socialization can also be understood from two aspects. From the individual's point of view, political socialization is the development process that individuals acquire various political tendencies. From the social point of view, political socialization is a process of political education and indoctrination for individual members of society by social organizations and groups, that is, a process in which the ruling class maintains, changes and creates its political culture.
The political socialization of contemporary college students is an important part of the political socialization project of the whole society. First of all, from the perspective of college students themselves, political socialization promotes the formation of their political self, and further enables college students to move from natural persons to social persons, and then to political persons (people who politically become social needs). Secondly, from the social point of view [5], the political socialization of college students is an advanced stage of national political education and political practice, which is mandatory and indoctrinating to a certain extent and is a means for a national government to achieve political goals. Thirdly, from the perspective of individuals and society, the process of college students' political socialization is also the process of interaction between college students and society, that is, the unified process of national requirements and college students' independent acceptance. Therefore, the political socialization of college students mainly refers to the repeated education and training of college students' political knowledge, political values and political practice by the institutions responsible for higher ideological and political education, and the interactive process of internalization of political culture among college students.
(B) the nature of college students' political socialization
The essence of political socialization is a process in which a certain ruling class spreads political culture to social members through certain ways and means to maintain its rule and make it a politician and a qualified social citizen needed by the ruling class. What political socialization wants to spread is not the universal knowledge, skills, behavioral norms and moral standards that human society needs, but the belief system of the specific political system of the specific ruling class and the cognitive system of the political operation mode related to political activities. Therefore, the process of political socialization in any society represents the interests of the ruling class.
"The bourgeoisie regards people as the object of political control, and the purpose of its political socialization is to spread bourgeois political culture, control people's thoughts, and make people recognize the existing political order and consciously obey bourgeois rule. Political and cultural education for college students in capitalist countries includes education on capitalism and its advantages, education on civil rights and obligations, and education on national spirit? These four aspects of education have always been unwavering and never vague. "China is a socialist country, and the dominant culture of society is socialist political culture. The political socialization of college students is the political socialization under the socialist democratic system and the political socialization of people being masters of their own affairs. The training goal of colleges and universities is to train qualified talents for socialist construction. Therefore, the essence of college students' political socialization is that the state firmly and powerfully spreads the leading culture of socialism to college students, educates them to understand the essence of socialism, and strengthens the political cultivation of patriotism, collectivism and socialism, so as to resist the invasion of bourgeois political culture and make them politically qualified socialist builders.
Second, the characteristics of college students' political socialization
College students are a special group of social members. Compared with other social members, their political socialization has both the characteristics of political socialization of all social members and their distinctive personality characteristics.
integrity
As soon as college students enter the school, they are placed in a more formal and systematic channel of political socialization and receive all kinds of formal and informal, direct and indirect, express and implied political enlightenment. First of all, through the ideological and political theory education course, the socialist leading political culture is instilled in college students, and through this direct political education method, the political feelings, attitudes and values of college students are adjusted. At the same time, activities such as situation and policy education, social situation report meeting and academic lectures are also held to strengthen communication and contact between college students and society, increase their understanding of society, improve their political cognition level and promote the continuous improvement of college students' political socialization. Secondly, the political life of college students depends on a certain organizational system, such as party branches, league organizations and student unions. These organizations play a supporting and strengthening role in inculcating and spreading the social dominant political culture. In addition, the rich campus culture permeates the purpose of political education everywhere, which has a clear guiding role for college students. They are neither one-way indoctrination nor discipline restraint, but directly or indirectly affect college students' political values, political ideology and morality and even lifestyle choices with the help of the cultural environment and atmosphere formed by campus cultural activities. Therefore, the political socialization of college students has the overall characteristics.
(2) Plasticity
"In a sense, human plasticity refers to the characteristics of human innate structure and transcendence, which is essentially a subject shaping." Political socialization is a process that runs through one's life. The university stage is a crucial period for the formation of a person's world outlook, outlook on life and values. Most contemporary college students are in their youth, and they are in a stage from immaturity to maturity, both physically and psychologically. Their growth environment is relaxed, their thoughts are active, their curiosity is strong, they know and accept new ideas quickly, and they are not easily bound by traditional ideas, so they have the characteristics of exploration and innovation. In the process of politicization, college students show unique autonomy and subjective initiative, so their political socialization is more plastic.
(3) radioactivity
The main task of college students is to study, and their social and political responsibilities are not as direct as those of other members of society. Their attention angle and degree are different from other members of society, and they also have more opportunities to discuss political issues, which are often accompanied by theoretical pursuit. Because college students have similar living environment, educational level, social interests, consistent sense of community and belonging, and unique subculture different from mainstream culture, the political socialization of college students is greatly influenced by their classmates and easily infected with each other. A large number of scattered and knowledgeable young people are concentrated in the university campus, which will inevitably expand the political influence of college students. Under the influence of groups, the political thoughts and behaviors that college students can accept are easy to transmit and reinforce each other, and college students have a great influence on the changes of college students' political attitudes and the trend of political behaviors. After graduation, college students will soon become the backbone and successors of all walks of life through social practice. They will have a positive and significant impact on society and other social groups not only in terms of scientific and cultural knowledge, but also in terms of political quality and personality charm, and have a strong and huge social radiation. This infection among college students has a great radiation impact on other members of society. (4) continuity
The process of college students' political socialization is closely continuous. Ideological and political education in colleges and universities is a concentrated form of political socialization of college students, and every political education activity in colleges and universities is always unremitting. Colleges and universities spread the dominant culture to students in a planned, step-by-step and purposeful way by offering ideological and political theory courses, which can generally be divided into three levels: basic civilization education, with the concept of honor and disgrace as the main line, mainly patriotism education, social morality education, democracy and legal system education and discipline education; Professional civilization education, mainly learning purpose and attitude education, professional ethics education; The education of socialist mainstream civilization mainly includes the education of Marxism, Mao Zedong Thought and Deng Xiaoping Theory, the education of the Party's basic line and the education of socialist outlook on life and morality.
In the years of college, integrity, plasticity, radiation and continuity are organically combined in the specific political socialization process of each college student.
Third, the function of college students' political socialization.
(A) the role of college students' political socialization in China's political system
For the society itself, or for the ruling class itself, the level of political socialization of social members or members of social and political groups will directly affect the stability and consolidation of social or political groups and their survival. For a political system, if people don't trust, support or even oppose it, it will lose the authority of effective governance, people will have political disobedience and bring social unrest. China is still in the primary stage of socialism. Due to various factors at home and abroad, there are still various political struggles, and China is still a political society. The scale of higher education in China is gradually expanding, and the number of college students is gradually increasing. More and more college students will participate in the construction of Socialism with Chinese characteristics and become the main force of socialist construction. Therefore, the political socialization of college students is related to the political stability of our society. If there is a problem with the political socialization of college students, it will be related to the order of the national political system and the sustainability of political development, which are the essential characteristics of political stability.
By standardizing the political socialization of college students, we can shape qualified successors, promote college students to form good and stable political attitudes and beliefs, and form a continuous political culture, thus promoting social and political stability and development and ensuring the rule of the political ruling class. Therefore, the political socialization of college students has the function of stabilizing China's political system.
(B) the function of college students' political socialization to themselves
In the political society, people are not only social animals, but also "the most veritable political animals". [3] Every member of society has various connections with the political system, which is an objective fact that is independent of anyone's subjective will. As a socialist country's college students, they should take the initiative to care about and participate in political life, so as to reflect the attitude of the country's masters. "From the individual point of view, the correct ideological and political concept is conducive to the establishment of individual ontology consciousness. If contemporary college students can't form proper ontological consciousness, they will become an isolated, eccentric person with personality problems, or their personality will be alienated. " [4] If college students can't successfully complete political socialization, they will easily have a sense of discomfort or rebellious psychology in social and political life. Therefore, political socialization is an important way for college students to improve their psychological adaptability and social adaptability, cultivate a sound political personality and participate in social and political life. The final result of college students' political socialization is to cultivate new students who meet the specific political and social requirements, that is, the new socialist "four haves", to help college students enter, adapt and participate in social and political life, so as to adapt them to the transfer of roles. On the basis of systematically understanding the political system, various participating roles and role players in the system, college students constantly improve their political awareness, political cognition and political literacy in their study and practice, and purposefully improve their ideological and moral level, thus achieving the goal of political civilization.
(C) the role of college students' political socialization in China's political culture.
The function of college students' political socialization is reflected in the relationship with political culture, that is, maintaining, changing and integrating the political culture of the political system. Democratic politics is the mainstream of the times, and the civic culture with democracy as the core concept constitutes the cultural foundation of democratic politics. The process of cultivating civic culture is also the process of internalizing it into the knowledge of the whole people, which is inseparable from a large-scale, profound and lasting democratic enlightenment thought, so it depends on an effective way: political socialization. Political socialization can be divided into two aspects: personal acquisition and social communication. As a major aspect of social communication, the cultivation of civic culture is reflected in China's political education. It is this kind of communication that enables the existing political culture to continue and maintain. The political socialization of college students is to spread and instill Marxist theory, Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory and Theory of Three Represents into college students, so that they can master the correct theories and methods, establish the lofty ideal of * * * and building the cause of Socialism with Chinese characteristics, and make greater contributions to the prosperity of the motherland.
First of all, the political socialization of college students has the function of maintaining China's political culture. The important feature of this function is a certain choice tendency when conveying political values, political views, political beliefs and political norms about our society. Secondly, the political socialization of college students has the function of changing political culture. Political culture itself is not a static thing. Facing the ever-changing political system, political culture is constantly changing accordingly. "Whenever there is some historical change or political choice in political reality, the political system will change political culture through political socialization." Finally, "political socialization has the function of gathering political culture. From the starting point of political socialization, it has the function of promoting the convergence of political culture. Due to the influence of social, geographical and linguistic factors, different political cultures, namely various sub-political cultures, have been formed in the same political and cultural system. " The political socialization of college students promotes the convergence of various subcultures, that is, the political system guides and promotes the convergence of various subcultures coexisting with the dominant political culture to the dominant culture through the means of political socialization of college students, and the result of this convergence is historical progress and cultural innovation.

Ideological and political education in colleges and universities is an important link in cultivating college students and solving the problem of who to serve. In the period of social transformation, higher education, especially ideological education for college students, has both opportunities and challenges. Therefore, it is imperative to innovate ideological and political education in colleges and universities.
First, the significance of innovation in ideological and political education of college students
At present, with the deepening of China's reform and opening up, various social contradictions have gradually emerged. The development and construction of future society can not be separated from college students, and the improvement of college students' ideological and political level is the key to promote the harmonious and stable development of society. As a group of young college students, it is easier to absorb new things and ideas. Therefore, it is of great significance to innovate college students' ideological and political education and make them have a sound outlook on life, values and world.
Second, the reasons for innovation in ideological and political education in colleges and universities
Innovating ideological and political education in colleges and universities first requires eliminating all kinds of problems encountered in all aspects of college students' all-round development and reforming all kinds of concepts and training mechanisms that are not innovative in ideological and political education in colleges and universities. The following are specific reasons:
(A) Ideological and political education in colleges and universities has multiple participation and subjectivity.
The important purpose of innovating ideological and political education in colleges and universities is to build a high-quality ideological and political education team and make college students develop healthily and comprehensively. College students, ideological and political educators and relevant ideological and political education departments have different roles and functions in ideological and political education in colleges and universities. They depend on each other and support each other, obviously showing multi-participation and subjectivity. The main body of innovative ideological and political education in colleges and universities is ideological and political educators. Their work mainly focuses on improving college students' ideological and moral quality, psychological quality and professional quality by using different ideological and political education methods according to their individual characteristics and with the help of modern new technology [1]. When carrying out ideological and political education in colleges and universities, the staff of ideological and political education in colleges and universities with different roles and responsibilities need to cooperate with each other and work together to form the personality of each college student. In the process of ideological and political education in colleges and universities, the relevant departments of ideological and political education play a macro-control and support role, improve various systems to ensure the quality of talents, establish and improve various mechanisms of ideological and political education in colleges and universities, or provide various services for ideological and political education staff and college students. In innovative universities, college students are participants and beneficiaries of ideological and political education. The main tasks of college students are: to receive all kinds of education and services from relevant departments and personnel; Actively and effectively interact with other participants; Constantly improve yourself.
(B) There are many links in ideological and political education in colleges and universities.
Ideological and political education in colleges and universities includes many links such as objectives, contents, means, system and evaluation. These links cooperate with each other, and the development of ideological and political education in colleges and universities is inseparable from the interaction, promotion and development of these links. The purpose and original intention of innovating ideological and political education in colleges and universities is to maximize the functions of each link and coordinate with each other [2]. First of all, in order to maximize the role of each link, we must mobilize all the enthusiasm of each link, so that its functions and advantages can be fully played in the process of ideological and political education in colleges and universities. Then, by establishing and perfecting the coordination mechanism, the foundation of coordination and cooperation among all links is ensured. Secondly, we should give full play to the overall function of ideological and political education in colleges and universities. Make the whole function come into play, so that the function shown by the whole is not the sum of all the functions, but the qualitative change on the basis of all the functions. This requires that in the process of innovating ideological and political education in colleges and universities, we must think about the relationship between each link and establish and improve the mechanism that is conducive to the development of each link and the coordinated development of different links.
(3) Ideological and political education in colleges and universities is multidisciplinary.
Innovative ideological and political education in colleges and universities includes innovative ideological and political education methods, innovative ideological and political education contents and innovative ideological and political education models. Innovating the interior of these fields and the synergistic relationship between them will greatly promote the innovation of ideological and political education in colleges and universities. First of all, we should innovate the educational model of ideological and political education in colleges and universities. The function of ideological and political education in colleges and universities can not be played without the education mode, which requires the participation of ideological and political education staff, relevant ideological and political education departments and relevant personnel. This requires each participant to cooperate and innovate, and fully support the ideological and political education model in colleges and universities. Secondly, we should innovate the methods of ideological and political education in colleges and universities [3]. We should introduce new technologies and methods into the methods of ideological and political education in colleges and universities. The staff of colleges and universities and relevant departments of ideological and political education should consider the actual needs of college students when using the methods, so as to make the ideological and political education methods more scientific and targeted. Third, innovate the content of ideological and political education in colleges and universities. The content of ideological and political education in colleges and universities should not only conform to the development of the times, but also meet the individual requirements of college students. Adhere to the needs of social development as the guide, with the goal of realizing the all-round development of college students, and choose the content that meets the individual needs of college students. To achieve this goal, we must coordinate the needs of all parties and actively innovate the content of ideological and political education.
Third, innovate the path of ideological and political education in colleges and universities.
(A) the concept of innovation is the premise of ideological and political education innovation in colleges and universities.
The premise of all innovation is the innovation of ideas. For a long time, in the ideological and political education in colleges and universities, different participants have different goals and lack of communication, which hinders the innovation of ideological and political education in colleges and universities. Therefore, the premise of innovating ideological and political education in colleges and universities is to establish innovative ideas.
(B) High-quality innovative team is the guarantee of ideological and political education in innovative universities.
The innovation of ideological and political education in colleges and universities needs a strong innovation team to ensure it. The innovation of ideological and political education in colleges and universities requires all participants to have innovative consciousness and strategic vision. The key to establishing an innovative team of ideological and political education in colleges and universities is to improve the innovative ability of all parties, cultivate innovative backbones, and absorb those young cadres and outstanding graduates with innovative spirit into the ideological and political education team in colleges and universities. Only in this way can we establish an innovative team and lay the foundation for ideological and political education in colleges and universities.
(C) A sound innovation mechanism is a solid foundation for the innovation of ideological and political education in colleges and universities.
Innovation of system and mechanism is the key to innovation of ideological and political education in colleges and universities. The so-called mechanism refers to the mutual relationship and mode of action of various parts in social organisms. It is the mechanism of the mechanism to adopt specific operation means to promote the coordinated operation of the subsystems contained in the system and make the overall function of the system better played. Establish an innovative mechanism of ideological and political education in colleges and universities, establish an effective operation mode and mechanism, realize the coordination and mutual promotion of the three main bodies, and form a stable and orderly innovative structure of ideological and political education in colleges and universities. Under such a sound mechanism, the innovation of ideological and political education in colleges and universities can be carried out smoothly.
(D) A good innovation platform is the carrier of ideological and political education in innovative universities.
Build a good innovation platform to provide a carrier for ideological and political education in colleges and universities. Constructing innovation platform can not only improve the quality of ideological and political education in colleges and universities, but also allow all participants to exercise themselves in this platform, improve their innovation ability, and make the innovation of ideological and political education in colleges and universities go further. Therefore, it is necessary to coordinate all kinds of existing resources inside and outside the school, build an innovation platform inside and outside the school, and provide a good carrier for ideological and political education in innovative universities. For example, colleges and universities should give full play to their own advantages, strengthen cooperation with relevant research institutes, local governments and enterprises, and integrate innovative resources and strength of colleges and universities themselves and society. Combining school education with the development of science and technology and economy will lay a solid foundation for the innovative development of ideological and political education in colleges and universities.
Four. Concluding remarks
At present, there are still many problems in the process of ideological and political education in colleges and universities. Therefore, we should attach great importance to ideological and political education in colleges and universities, actively innovate ideological and political education in colleges and universities, and explore new methods and means of ideological and political education in colleges and universities in order to achieve the purpose of promoting ideological and political education in colleges and universities.
