Brief Discussion of Cultivation and Advancement of Soft Power in Disciplinary and Specialty Construction of China Universities

Abstract

The soft power of disciplines/specialties means that the discipline/specialty organizations are characterized by the non-materialized and functioning ability in a flexible manner. It is basically recognized that the soft power is composed of discipline/specialty culture and organizational institutions. The factors-driven module of discipline/specialty construction in China in the last several decades unilaterally paid close attention to the discipline/specialty hard power indexes and ignored the cultivation of discipline/specialty soft power, thus not resulting in the radical advancement of knowledge production capacity of discipline/specialty organizations. To build first-class disciplines/specialties is to emphatically hoist discipline/specialty organizational level and foster discipline/specialty soft power to offer the inside motivation for the comprehensive reform of disciplines/specialties.
