论“毛泽东晚期思想”:概念与争议

On Contending with "The Late-Mao Zedong's Thought"

中国大陆学界在毛泽东研究领域中提出了"毛泽东晚期思想"的概念,原本应是单纯的思想史分期作法,却引起不少反对的看法,也冲击了对"毛泽东思想"的界定。单纯的思想史分期产生如此困扰的根由在于对"毛泽东思想"理论上的界定不完备。大陆学界对"毛泽东晚期思想"有两项争议:(1)从思想史的角度来看,"毛泽东晚期思想"的上限究竟应定在何时;(2)"毛泽东晚期思想"概念的适用性问题。就后一个争议而言,赞同运用"毛泽东晚期思想"概念对毛泽东本人的思想作阶段性的研究。这个概念的提出,有助于探讨中国共产党建政后毛泽东本人思想转变的有关问题。

The concept of ＂The Late - Mao Zedong＇ s Thought＂ put forward by the Chinese academics on the mainland as an approach of pure phase of ideological history has incurred so many opponent views, and it has also influenced on the definition of Maoism. This paper comments the two contentions with ＂The Late - MaoZedong＇ s Thought＂ by the mainland academics. The first contention is starting time for ＂The Late- Mao Zedong＇ s Thought＂ from the perspective of ideological history？ The second one is the applicability of the concept ＂The Late - Mao Zedong＇ s Thought＂. As for the latter contention, this paper favors to apply the concept ＂The Late- Mao Zedong＇s Thought＂ into the research of Mao＇ s Thought by stages. To put forward such a concept is beneficial to explore the related problems of conversion of Mao＇ s thought after the CPC came to power.
