Abstract

 

This paper aims to analyze the cause of the strengthening of Chinese nationalism during the Xi Jinping period. Since Xi Jinping took power, Chinese nationalism has also been strengthening along with China's expansion of global influence. Chinese nationalism after 1949 is different from modern nationalism. It is characterized by Chinese nationalism and popular nationalism. It not only operates for internal unity in politics but also reacts toexternal threats. Especially with the improvement of China's influence, contradictions around core interests occur frequently, and this contradiction intensifies China's nationalism. In addition, patriotic education led by the authorities made nationalism externally oriented. As a result of the analysis, first, it was confirmed that the ideological and political education for young people was strengthened; second, the development of communication technology and the spread of the Internet and smartphones strengthened nationalism; third, China's core interests were replaced with personal interests.
