小大之辨:毛泽东“小民主”思想方法的实践价值

Differentiating Between Different Scales:The Contemporary Value of Mao Ze-dong’s Ideological Methodology of“Small-Scale Democracy”

20世纪50年代中期,为应对国际国内形势,毛泽东创造性地提出并阐发了“小民主”思想方法。这一思想方法设置了无产阶级属性的“大前提”,涵盖了党内民主和人民民主的“大范围”,起到了加强党的建设和维护社会稳定的“大作用”。在新征程上,要理解和把握毛泽东“小民主”思想方法的现实关照,强化其连通党内民主与人民民主的“桥梁”作用和维护社会长期稳定的疏解作用,拓展以党内集中学习教育活动推进党的自我革命的路径选择,为以伟大自我革命引领伟大社会革命、发展全过程人民民主提供思想资源和历史借鉴。

In the mid-1950s,in response to the international and domestic situation,Mao Ze-dong creatively put forward and elaborated the ideological method of“small-scale democracy”.This ideological method set up the“major premise”of proletariat attributes,covered the“large scope”of intra-party democracy and people’s democracy,and played a“great role”in strengthening party construction and maintaining social stability.On the new journey,we should understand and grasp the realistic consideration of Mao Ze-dong’s ideological approach of“small-scale democracy”,strengthen its role as a“bridge”connecting intra-party democracy and people’s democracy and as an antidote to long-term social stability,expand the path for promoting the Party’s self-revolution through centralized study and education activities within the Party,and provides ideological resources and historical reference for leading the great social revolution with the great self-revolution and developing people’s democracy in the whole process.
