About Some Theoretical Problems of Socialism(Part Ⅰ)

《共产党宣言》阐明了社会主义的本质特征和基本原则,并在十月革命胜利后的社会主义国家中付诸实践。邓小平提出的四项基本原则是对社会主义本质特征和基本原则的最好概括。应该从社会发展规律的角度来把握社会主义的本质特征和基本原则,不能随意扩大,也不能随意减少。社会主义本质特征和基本原则的具体实现形式,需要根据本国国情在实践中进行探索,逐步把它说清楚。把社会主义的本质特征和基本原则同它的实现形式区分开来,就可以回答关于社会主义的一系列有争议的问题。

＂ Communist Manifesto＂ described the features of socialist essence and basic principles, which were put into practice in socialist countries after the October Revolution. The Four Cardinal Principles raised by Deng Xiaoping are the best conclusion of these features and basic principles. We should hold them from the perspective of social development without arbitrary increase or reduction. The realization of the features of socialist essence and basic principles, which needs to be based on the national condition, can be explored in the practice, and distinguishing these features and principles from their realization ways can solve some disputes about Socialism.
