Abstract:The discourse system of China’s marine education represents the integration of the content, methods, and developmental path of the educational construction of China’s marine discourse. It takes Chinese marine civilization as the educational resource, centers on the core logic of telling good marine stories, aims to construct discourse power, and pursues the educational effect of enhancing China’s marine soft power. The construction of the discourse system of China’s marine education consists of two aspects: the content system and the strategic system of marine education discourse, and it constitutes a crucial component of the independent knowledge system of China’s marine education. A discourse system requires the support of new concepts and iconic concepts; the logic of stories determines the logic of discourse, and telling good marine stories is the key to constructing the discourse system. We need to base ourselves on Chinese marine civilization, keep an eye on the global marine situation, and construct a narrative ethics of China’s marine education for the new era and a system of marine stories with distinctive Chinese cultural characteristics. To tell good Chinese marine stories, we must focus on the educational metaphors of marine discourse power: address the current“stumbling block” in marine narration by reforming the ways and methods of storytelling; transmit soft power through marine narratives; lead the iconic concepts of the ocean through marine thinkers; expand the educational metaphors and value dissemination of discourse power; and contribute to the construction of a strong country driven by marine new-quality productive forces. The construction of China’s marine education discourse system requires: Strategically fostering a maritime vision of “orienting the land toward the sea and advancing from coastal waters to the open ocean”; Intellectually establishing theoretical discourse resources rooted in the discipline of marine education; Communicatively setting agendas for China’s marine education and forming a multi-dimensional narrative mechanism based on human psychology and emotion. These measures will significantly elevate marine soft power and advance the high-quality development of China’s maritime strength.
