中国共产党对社会主义本质的百年探索与理论发展

A Century’s Theoretical Exploration and Development of the Essence of Socialism by the Communist Party of China

中国共产党对社会主义本质理论的发展,具有如下六大特点:一是立足实际、独立探索,中国共产党对社会主义本质的探索,与其对革命道路的探索、对社会主义建设道路的探索建立在一致的方法论基础之上;二是从经济一维到经济、政治、文化、社会、生态、党的领导等多维,对社会主义本质的认识日益全面;三是从以生产力为中心到以社会为中心,再到以人民为中心,体现了向马克思主义价值旨归的回归;四是从“本质”到“本质要求”“本质属性”“本质特征”,对社会主义本质的认识日渐深入;五是从对“社会主义本质”的探索到对“中国特色社会主义本质”的界定,实现了从理性抽象到理性具体的再飞跃;六是从摆脱传统意识形态的束缚到借鉴西方,再到自主建构,体现了理论上的创新能力和思想上的自我主张。这既是理论自身的逻辑发展,更是对发展着的实践的不断总结和提升,体现了逻辑与历史的统一。

The development of the theory of the essence of socialism by the Communist Party of China has six features.Firstly,the CPC explores the essence of socialism independently,the methodology of which is in line with her exploration on the strategies of the revolution and socialist construction.Secondly,it develops from one dimension of economy to dimensions of economy,politics,culture,society,ecology and the leadership of the Party,so the knowledge of the essence of socialism becomes all-round.Thirdly,it develops from productivitycentered to society-centered,and then to people-centered,so it comes back to the Marxist values standpoint.Fourthly,it develops from“essence”to“essential requirements”,“essential attributes”and“essential characters”,so the knowledge of the essence of socialism becomes deeper.Fifthly,it develops from the exploration of“the essence of socialism”to the exploration of“the essence of socialism with Chinese characteristics”,so it achieves the re-leap from rational abstraction to rational concretion.Sixthly,it develops from getting rid of bondage to learning from the West,and then to self-construction,so it shows theoretical innovation and self-assertion in thoughts.All of these are not only the logical development of the theories,but also the reflection of the realities,so it embodies the unity of logic and history.
