The Chinese Dream helps the people of the world understand that China will make greater contributions to the peaceful development of mankind and to the building of a harmonious world of lasting peace and common prosperity(Qian, Huang & Li, 2015). General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that the realization of national rejuvenation and the Chinese Dream depends on a peaceful international environment,"Without peace, neither China nor the world can achieve smooth development, and with a lack of development, neither China nor the world can enjoy lasting peace."He stressed that,"The realization of the‘Chinese dream'will benefit not only the Chinese people but also the people of the world(Xi, 2015, p.274)."The evolution of the discourse expression from"peaceful rise"to"peaceful development"and to"Chinese Dream"presents to the world the wisdom of the Chinese people. The realization of the Chinese Dream will make contributions to the maintenance of world peace and the construction of a win-win world political and economic order.展开更多

The event was sponsored by the China Society for human Rights Studies and the Publicity department of the hunan Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China, and hosted by the CSU Research Center for human Rights and the CSU School of law. nearly 70 experts and scholars in law, international relations, and communication from institutes of higher learning, research institutions, and practical work departments from around the country shared their opinions on three topics: Cultivation of a Chinese human Rights discourse System in the new era, Communication of the Chinese human Rights discourse in the new era, and Chinese human Rights discourse and International human Rights Governance in the new era. They conducted an in-depth discussion on enhancing human rights self-confidence, grasping the characteristics of the new era and the general development trend, consolidating consensus between domestic and overseas human rights discourses, and effectively carrying out international human rights exchanges.

To make a better China story about human rights and enhance China’s international discourse power in the field of human rights, we propose the text construction, translation and communication path of the construction of the human rights discourse system with Chinese characteristics from the cross-disciplinary perspective. Based on the examples of prevention and control of the CoVID-19 pandemic under the concept of putting people first, mainstream diplomatic linguistic data relevant to the fight against the novel coronavirus was collected through the internet. The human rights discourse with Chinese characteristics is constructed through a variety of texts focusing on putting the people first, the right to life, the right to health, the right to information, the right to privacy, the right to work and a sense of a community with a shared future for human beings. The core concepts of human rights have experienced the deepening process of decontextualization, abstraction and theorization to gradually conform to the expression habits of international audiences. The international communication effect is mainly positive in civil society. It shows that the construction of China’s human rights discourse system and the governance of international human rights discourse have achieved preliminary results. To enhance China’s discourse power on human rights, we need to add an interdisciplinary approach.展开更多
