Abstract:Cultural selfconfidence possesses prominent constitutive character which is based on the formation of the culture instead of the structure. Comprehending cultural selfconfidence based on the structure of culture would lead to perceptual misunderstanding and mistakes in the practice of cultural selfconfidence education. To avoid the abstract or onesided comprehension about cultural selfconfidence, it is necessary to penetrate into the internal structure of cultural selfconfidence from the specific level of cultural structure. Furthermore, the cognitive logic of the composition of cultural selfconfidence should make the transition from the structure to the formation. From the perspective of the formation of culture, confidence in cultural development process, value orientation,innovation ability, conflict resolution ability and international comparison ability constitute the totality of cultural selfconfidence, and they are presented as five diverse aspects. The social formation of the cultural selfconfidence needs to consolidate its value foundation through the leading force and influence of the dominant culture, consolidate its ontological foundation through the cultural construction of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and consolidate its subjective foundation through intellectuals’cultural foresight and cultural selfconfidenceeducation.
