中国特色社会主义建设实践的理论自觉——论历史唯物主义功能及其内涵的当代转化

The Theoretic Spontaneity of Socialist Construction with Chinese Characteristics —On the Updating of the Function and Content of Historical Materialism

中国当代社会主义建设实践不能迷信社会历史发展的自发性,而应该继承和发扬历史唯物主义创造历史的主体性精神,将中华民族伟大复兴的历史重任同反思现代资本主义文明困境结合起来,面对人类存在异化和自我毁灭的现实可能性,通过积极的建构性实践为开创人类文明的新形态作出贡献。为此,历史唯物主义必须从革命的发生学变成支持后革命建设的精神动力,其内涵也随着此种基本功能的转变而转变。通过这种转变,历史唯物主义有可能获得当代化和中国化的创新形式,成为切中当今时代主题之思想精华,为当代中国社会主义建构性政治实践奠定思想基础。

The socialist construction with Chinese characteristics must not trust itself to the spontaneity of historical development;instead,it should inherit and develop the subjective spirit of creating history in historical materialism,integrate the historic task of national renaissance with the reflection on the fixes of modern capitalism,and contribute to the new forms of civilization via positive constructive practices in face of man＇s existential alienation and self-destruction.So,historical materialism must turn itself from the embryology of revolution into the motivation to post-revolutionary construction,and its content will vary with its basic functions.Such changes may usher in updated sinolized innovation mode of historical materialism,which in turn will become the quintessence of ideology in line with contemporary theme and lay the ideological foundation of the constructive political practice of contemporary Chinese socialism.
