更深刻地理解邓小平"精髓论"的独特创造性(上)——邓小平对"解放思想"范畴的创造性

A Deeper Understanding of Deng Xiaoping's Creative Exposition on "the Essence Theory" --A Discussion of the Concept of "Emancipating the Mind"

非常熟悉的范畴,并不一定是都读懂了的范畴。在纪念邓小平诞辰100周年之际,更深刻理解邓小平对"精髓论"的独特创造性,有十分重大的现实意义。邓小平第一个提出了"精髓论",首先系统地界定了"解放思想"范畴,提出了解放思想的双重蕴涵包括肯定性和否定性两个方面;解放思想的主要内容在微观方面是解决过去遗留下来的问题,中观方面是确定实现中国式的现代化的道路、方针和措施,宏观方面是正确地改革中国现实社会中同生产力迅速发展不相适应的生产关系和上层建筑;解放思想的行为主体是中国共产党领导下的千百万真心实意拥护改革开放的人民群众;解放思想的精神状态所要达到的是"不要怕"的特有境界。

Familiarity with a concept does not mean a thorough understanding of it. As the 100th anniversary of Comrade Deng Xiaoping's birthday is around the corner, a deeper understanding of his creative exposition on 'the Essence Theory' is of great practical significance. As the first to advocate 'the Essence Theory', Deng provides a systematic definition of the concept, holding that the connotations of emancipating the mind are of two folds: the affirmative side and the negative one. As its major meanings are concerned, they are of three levels. At the micro level, emancipating the mind means to solve the problems that remain unsolved in the past; at the medium level, it means the setting of the route, guidelines and measures to realize China's modernization; at the macro level, moreover, it means the reformation of the productive relations and superstructure that does not fit for the rapid development of China's productive force. Furthermore, its subject is millions of Chinese people that support the reform and opening-up under the leadership of the CPC, and the spiritual state that it aims to attain is that of no fear.
