Strengthening the Practical Path of Sensory Education in Ideological and Political Theory Courses in Universities—Based on Marcuse's New Theory of Sensibility

Abstract

This article deeply analyzes how Marcuse's theory of new sensibility sharply criticizes the shackles of instrumental rationality in modern industrial society, emphasizing that new sensibility, as a product of the harmonious coexistence of sensibility and rationality, has the power to awaken human inner negation consciousness, resist the alienation of instrumental rationality, and lead us towards the other shore of human liberation and freedom. On this basis, the importance of strengthening emotional education in ideological and political theory courses is studied, and it is proposed to enhance students' emotional abilities, empathy, critical thinking, and social responsibility through diversified course content, innovative teaching methods, the combination of practical teaching and emotional experience, and the reform of evaluation systems, in order to cultivate well-rounded young people in the new era.
