恩格斯晚年的理论创新及其当代价值

Engels’ Theoretical Innovation in His Later Years and Its Contemporary Value

恩格斯晚年时期,西方资本主义发展状况和世界社会主义运动面临的形势都发生了极大的变化。为应对这一变化和更好地为各国社会主义政党的理论与实践活动提供指导,恩格斯审时度势,对他和马克思先前提出的一系列理论观点进行了重新审视与思考,在许多重大问题上都提出了自己的新观点与新结论,极大地丰富和发展了马克思主义理论学说。恩格斯晚年的理论创新是多方面的,本文拟选取四个重要方面进行考察分析,以从中得到有益的经验启示。

In Engels’s later years, the development of western capitalism and the situation faced by the world socialist movement have undergone great changes. In order to cope with this change and provide better guidance for the theoretical and practical activities of socialist parties in various countries, Engels evaluated the situation, re-examined and thought about a series of theoretical viewpoints previously put forward by him and Marx, and put forward his own new viewpoints and new conclusions on many major issues, which greatly enriched and developed the theoretical theories of Marxism. Engels’s theoretical innovation in his later years is multifaceted. This paper intends to select four important aspects to investigate and analyze, in order to get useful experience and enlightenment from them.
