改革开放与理论调适——基于邓小平社会主义本质论形成史的思考

Reform,Opening Programs and Theory Adaptation——Reflections Based on the History of the Formation of the Socialist Essence Theory of Deng Xiaoping

对社会主义本质的探索自空想社会主义诞生之日起便从未停止。由于受到苏联模式的误导以及文革期间极左思潮的影响,党内及广大民众对社会主义本质的僵化理解一度成为改革开放启动的巨大障碍。为解决这一难题,邓小平经由思索酝酿、提出命题、初步形成、正式确立四个阶段提出了社会主义本质论,通过高扬社会主义生产力目标与价值目标,为改革开放的推进提供了重要助力。这一伟大调适所彰显出的实事求是、与时俱进的精神依然值得我们探究学习。

Ever since utopian socialism came into being,our exploration into the essence of socialismhas never stopped. Due to the misleading examples of the former Soviet Union and the ultra - leftist approach we took during the Cultural Revolution （ 1966 - 1976） ,our understanding of this issue,both insideand outside of the Party,came to a stalemate,presenting great obstacle to our reform and opening programs. To solve this problem,Deng Xiaoping put forward the socialist essence theory which,after a full development process of four stages conception,assumption,formation and institution gives great momentum to our reform and opening programs by advocating objectives of both productivity and values of socialism. This great practice of theory adaptation,and the spirit of pursuing truth and advancing with timesdisplayed within in particular,is worth our close attention and careful study.
