Abstract:

Historically speaking, the interconnectedness between contemporary Chinese logics and modernization was revealed by slogans such as "Logics serving Four Modernizations" and "Modernization of Logics" put forward in 1978.While the latter paid more attention to the modernization of the teaching and research of logics, the former emphasized the relationship between logics and the historical process of modernization.In the past 20 years, the modernization of contemporary Chinese logics has been proceeding positively.However, it is still a question which merits attention that how the teaching and research of logics takes part in the construction and criticism of Chinese modernity by putting into practice their socio-cultural function.

Key words: history of Chinese logic, modernization of logic, modernity, socio-cultural function
