From Mao Zedong Thought to Scientific Concept of Development——On Relations of Mao Zedong Thought and Theories of Socialism Characteristics of the Chinese Style

The Chinese Communists represented by Mao Zedong have achieved much progress in explorations of the Chinese socialist construction.This has been realized through efforts of successful estalishment of the basic socialist system,the resolution and implementation of the guidelines of the 8th Congress of CPC,and reflections over the positive and negative experience of the "great leap forward".This progress has been an inseparable component of the scientific theoretical system of Mao Zedong thought,and is considered continuation and extension of the first historical leap in localizing Marxism after the founding of the People’s Republic of China.This is also the motives and source of wisdom for constant theoretical innovation in the period of reform,open-up and the four modernizations.The second historical leap of localizing Marxism was achieved by the Chinese Communists represented by Deng Xiaoping.It has been realized through efforts of setting up the path to and socialist theories of socialism characteristics of the Chinese style.This has been achieved by accurately and thoroughly understanding Mao Zedong thought,returning to the guidelines of the 8th Congress of CPC,and by systematic interpretation of the scientific system of Mao Zedong thought.The author claims that this practice shows a dialectical nature of developing while restoring and holding on to the scientific aspects of the past experience,and restoring and holding on to the scientific aspects of the past experience while developing in the process of drawing lessons from history and looking forwad to the future.It is in this process that Deng Xiaoping ideas gradually took shape and integrated with Mao Zedong thought,indicating clearly the course of the first and second leaps of localization of Marxism in China.The "three represents" and the scientific concept of development that continue to enrich the socialist theories in the Chinese style,have also been nurtured by Mao Zedong thought for innovative ideas and wisdom.Thus,they are linked to Marxism,Leninism and Mao Zedong thought and keep being updated with the passage of time.All these phenomena repeatedly point to a truth,that is,the basic principles in Marxism whose values have been proved through practice need to be refreshed and updated by new ideas and new ways in order to maintain its contemporary significance,and to stay innovative,active and alive.
