The Spread And Development Of Engels’ Dialectics Of Nature In China

As an important part of Marxist theory,the dissemination of Engels’ dialectics of nature in China is an important event in the history of Marxist communication.It is of great significance to the sinicization of Marxism and the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics.Xi Jinping’s new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics is contemporary Chinese Marxism and 21 st century Marxism.Investigating the dissemination and development of the dialectics of nature in China is of great value for the promotion of Xi Jinping’s new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the countries and regions of the world.This article examines the spread and development of Engels’ dialectics of nature from the perspective of Marxist communication history and development history.Engels’ s book "The Dialectics of Nature" is the most important textual manifestation of his dialectics of nature.Therefore,this article examines this work as the main line.According to the principle of the occurrence of things,the dissemination of the dialectics of nature in China can be divided into three stages: First,the introduction of the dialectics of nature into China and its early spread(from the late 1920 s to the founding of P.R.China).At this stage,the dialectics of nature is mainly spread within the party and advanced elements.The dissemination has great contingency and uncertainty,and the scope of communication is relatively narrow.The second is the initial establishment of the dissemination of dialectics of nature in China(from the founding of P.R.China in 1949 to the reform and opening up in 1978).At this stage,the initial dialectization of the dissemination of dialectics of nature dialects is closely integrated with China’s social and economic development,forming a fine tradition of serving the country.However,due to the obstacles of the "Great Leap Forward Movement" and the "Cultural Revolution",the process of institutionalization of the dissemination and development of the dialectics of nature was forced to be interrupted.The third is the comprehensive institutionalization and standardization of the dissemination of dialectics of nature(from 1978 to the present).Compared with the process of institutionalization initiated in the previous stage,we refer to this stage as the re-establishment of the dissemination of the dialectics of nature.At this stage,the dialectics of nature is based on the achievements of modern science and technology,and absorbs the latest research results such as system theory,cybernetics,information theory,and dissipative structure theory,synergy theory,and catastrophe theory in system science,by the nature of Engels.The content system based on view and science and technology concept has gradually expanded to a new framework with the main content of natural view,scientific view and scientific methodology,technical view and technical methodology,science and technology and society.In addition,the combination of natural dialectics and China’s social economic culture has laid the theoretical foundation for China’s ecological civilization.Through the research on the process of the dissemination and development of Engels’ dialectics of nature in China,this article shows that:(1)The introduction of the dialectics of nature into China has historical inevitability.On the one hand,our society has an urgent need for the times of Marxist theory,including dialectics of nature,and opens the way for the dissemination of dialectics of nature in China.On the other hand,dialectics of nature is a theory of science,which is summarized on the basis of natural science.What emerged is a model of natural science rising to philosophy;it has the theoretical quality of theory and practice,and is suitable for China’s national conditions in content.(2)The dissemination and development of the dialectics of nature is a process of intertwining.When ideas develop in communication and spread in development,it is difficult to separate the ideological communication from the ideological development.In the process of dissemination of dialectics of nature,the main body of communication,the audience,the target of communication,and the channels of communication are constantly expanding.The mode of communication has gradually evolved from formality and uncertainty to formalization and institutionalization.(3)The dissemination of the dialectics of nature in China is closely linked to the cause of revolution,construction and reform in China.Since modern times,China’s continuous modernization process has been guided by Engels’ dialectics of nature.Entering a new era,Engels’ dialectics of natural dialectics still has guiding significance for China’s socialist modernization.The party leads the people of all nationalities in the country tocomprehensively deepen reforms,expand opening up,promote ecological civilization,and build a beautiful China.This requires further dissemination and development of the dialectics of nature.
