Research on Marxist ideology is one of the just unfolding hot problems in Marxist philosophy developing in present China. This research can not only respond the crisis and challenge of Western Modern Civilization, and solve the ideological perplexity in present China, but also inherit and develop Marxism theory, and respond Western ideological theory. It is of important significance in practice and theory to study the problems of Marxist Ideology.Through the research on the basic theory of Marxist Ideology, this thesis will firstly analyze the challenges, perplexities and reasons faced by Marxist Ideology in present China, and then construct Marxist Ideology in present China.I. Basic theory of Marxist IdeologyMarxist Ideology theory was founded and developed by Karl Marx and his heirs, which might represent and reflect the basic benefit and requirements of the proletariat. This theory was also based on the Marxism scientific theory and practice and has the quality of mental command and ultimate value, socialist thought idea system developing with era and social ideological surroundings. The Marxism ideology theory is made up of the understanding and propagation of basic Marxist theory, popularization and application of the position, viewpoint and methods, recognition and appraisal of social practical activity of Marxism and social ideological surroundings. It symbolizes the close relationships between Marxism theory and social ideology, aims to the unity of ideal and reality on the basis of practice and times; embodies the combine of academy, science and reality. The social ideology in present China is dominated by Marxism Ideology, which is typically character of the Chinese national situation and development with times, and the new advance and development of Marxism Ideology in new era.The structure of Marxism ideology in present China includes the political,economic and cultural ideology of Marxism laterally. This structure can be generally divided into three hierarchies, that is, firstly socialism thought of politics and law of Marxism, these are core of the theory with the character of politics and class. Secondly, basic theory of Marxism and its instructing philosophy and social science, these are not only a kind of science theory, but also a kind of ideology. Thirdly, Ethics, Morals and Arts of Marxism, these are embodied by typical image and concrete life.The main functions of Marxism ideology in present China includes the social–controlling function, personality-molding function, value-appraising function, criticism function and so on.Ⅱ.Challenges perplexities and reasons of Marxism ideology in present ChinaThe Marxism ideology theory in present China has been challenged and assaulted three times, the assault from Great Culture Revolution, the challenge from Violent Change of Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, the effect of transformation of Socialism Market Economics. The perplexities of Marxism ideology theory in present China embody into four aspects, the perplexity of traditional Marxism theory, perplexity of value–selecting in present society, the perplexity of multi-source culture and assault, the perplexity of social problems in transformation periods. All these perplexities result from the practical development and change of man's existing ways.The international reasons of the challenge and perplexity of Marxism ideology include the world-wide belief crisis and culture haziness is the epoch-spring mood. The rise of western new technology revolution and the low tide of socialism movement is the social background; Westernization, differentiation and desalination of leading ideology in China by the Western developed capitalism countries is the direct practical reason. However, the domestic reasons of the challenge and perplexity of Marxism ideology come from the effect of social transformation on the Marxism Ideology, confusion of public opinion direction, the perplexity of thought and politics education. The internal reasons are the apparent difference between the ideal and reality, the contradiction between humankind and society, the contradiction between person and person above the foundation of the relationship between humankind and nature, the pressure and selection from multi-source culture.Ⅲ.Construction of Marxism ideology in present ChinaConstruction of Marxism Ideology in present China is based on the requirements of present time. It is the new understanding of Marxism, re-evaluation of the manner and ways of the old ideology, the rational thinking of the construction environment of Marxism Ideology, the discussion and forecast of the truth, efficiency and expectation of Marxism ideology. The aim of Marxism Ideology is to make Marxism Ideology dominant in present China continually, to make it develop with times and to induce the others.It should be stressed that the construction of Marxism Ideology is dynamic process in the tension field of ideal and reality, tradition and present situation, belief and doubt, person and society and so on. This paper will construct Marxism Ideology in present China from three aspects as following.From theoretical aspects, Ideology construction should firstly pay more attention to the unity of reality and ideal in Marxism Ideology to make"Class-type Construction". The aim of"Class-type Construction"is to pay more attention to the living situation of different classes in the process of Chinese social development, is to set up the construction objectives of Marxism Ideology with hierarchy and particularity, to make the Marxism ideology popular approve among people. The"State-type construction"is to pay more attention to the comprehensive construction of Marxism ideology in all the types. Secondly, the Theoretical Construction of Marxism Ideology is to pay more attention to the unity of tradition and present situations. The"Growth-type Construction"is to cultivate the harmonious ideology, which is based on the leading ideology and traditional Chinese Ideology and be fit for the present Chinese development and use the good thoughts as reference. The specific countermeasures in construction includes the general dialoguing ,jointing between the homogeneous substances, co-existing of heterogeneous substances, mending on the fault site. The"Class-type Construction"is the foundation frame and basis, but the"Growth-type Construction"is path, model and method.The Cultural Construction of Ideology is made up of"Internal Construction"and"External Construction". The"Internal Construction"is to construct the cultural contents, that is, to construct the ideology according to the types of cultural classes. The"External Construction"is the construction of the process of the cultural popularization, which will be through the media, public opinion, activity and education. The"External Construction"in cultural development is realized by specific practice that is to persist in the dominant state of Marxism Ideology in cultural development; to pay more attention to the practice aspect of Marxist Ideology in cultural development; to arouse the important state of active members in cultural construction and to form the friendly atmosphere of social practice.System Construction: system construction instructed by Marxism ideology should persist in the direction of socialism and serving the people and obey the rules of justice, rational democracy and legal principle. The System Construction includes the"Course Construction", that is to construct in the developing process of the socialism system, The"Simultaneous Construction", that is to construct the present socialism system in the specific stage of the"Course Construction".In general, Theoretical Research on the Marxism ideology in present China is the theoretical foundation of Marxism ideology construction, Cultural Development is media and bridge. System Construction is the important guarantee and practical path. The above constructions in three aspects can build up the main frame of Marxism Ideology construction, and promote the development of Marxism ideology.There are some new ideas in this thesis as following:1)The theoretic position and intension of Marxism Ideology has been obviously determined theoretically;2) The essential reasons of confusion about Marxism Ideology have been analyzed specifically and deeply in four aspects, such as the difference between idea and reality, contradiction between person and society, contradiction between persons on the basis of the relationship of humankind and nature, pressure and selection from multi-source cultures;3) Marxism Ideology in present China has been tried to construct systematically. Some construction models have been suggested, such as Class-type Construction and State-type Construction in theoretical construction, Internal Construction and External Construction in culture construction, Course Construction and Simultaneous Construction in system construction;4) Advances in the vision field and methods of Marxist Ideology research have been made to some extent. Problems have been analyzed on the basis of realism and the view field of historism and futurism. Not only dialectics such as integration of theory with practice, specific analysis on specific question, but also the related disciplines such as sociology, political science and social psychology have been applied in this thesis. Although personal view about some problems in disputing or without conclusion has been put forward based on the research results of predecessors, there must be mistakes and careless omissions in this thesis because the author has little talent and less learning. Materials may be more than viewpoints and inheritance may be more than new ideas. Therefore, criticism and correction from scholars are welcome.Form the above discussion, the research and construction of Marxism ideology is not only the complicated system engineer, but also a developing process with times. There are many problems in Marxism Ideology to be explored continually. In future, Marxism Ideology in present China will realize many revolution progressively, from the foundation of class to the foundation of man, from the pure scientism to combination of science and the humanities, from tool to target, from radicalism to reality, from the abstract understanding of Marxism to the development of Marxism in specific practice, from the more attention to the whole to the transformation and transition of personal situations…It is confidentially believed that the development future of Marxism ideology is bright and fine.
