For humans,innovation is an intuitive practice as well as a profound philosophy proposition.From the overall perspective of promoting the development of human society and Proletariat's Liberation,Marx and Engel explore the great significance of innovation on the evolution of human society.This thesis takes the Marxist innovation as research object and reviews various theories.Features of Marxist innovation are concluded and its practical significance is investigated.“Innovation” is an important practice for humans.Innovative activity is indispensable during the development of human society,and it promotes the development of human society.The word “innovation” is borrowed from western countries,with the basic meaning of “leading in new theories and practicing revolution”.The meaning can be extended to “leading in new things and concepts to make changes.” In the field of philosophy,“innovation” is to deny and surpass old things.New theories,thoughts and methods are first applied in practice.Marx and Engel deeply analyze the flows and defects occurring in the early stage of western capitalist society and point out that the nature of capitalism is dissimilation.Innovation,namely,criticism and transcendence,is established as basic standpoint of philosophy.Marxist innovation believes that there is essential connection between labor and innovation.A purposeful,planned,and creative working is a kind of innovation in nature.The ability of innovation of a certain society affects the speed of social development directly.After Marx,western economist Joseph Alois Schumpeter inherits Marxist innovation theory.He focuses on technology innovation and system innovation in the process of capitalist production.Some concrete sections in development are discussed from the perspective of economics,including the combination of production factors,technological progress in production,the model of endogenous economic growth,tech-economic paradigm,national innovation system and so on.These studies enrich Marxist innovation and provide great practical significance and enlightenments.As representatives of Marxist innovation in early stage,Lenin and Mao Zedong maintain that basic principles of Marxism should be combined with the development condition and objective reality of certain countries.With keenly self-consciousness and pioneering theory,they put forward scientific Marxism view and accomplish the theory innovation for the first time during the development of Marxist innovation.After Lenin and Mao Zedong,Marxist innovation entering the development period in China.Based on scientific Marxism view,Deng Xiaoping emancipates and breaks though the conservative mind boldly.His theory of socialism with Chinese characteristics set a precedent of the combination of general principles of Marxism and the reality of Chinese socialist modernization.As pioneer of the theory of socialism with Chinese characteristics,he puts forward some theories creatively,including theory of essence of socialism,the primary stage of socialism,socialist reform and opening up,socialist market economy,socialist spiritual civilization,peaceful reunification of motherland and so on.These theories construct the basic theoretical framework of socialist modernization with Chinese characteristics.As subsequent leaders,Jiang Zemin,Hu Jintao and Xi Jinping make innovative plans which meet the requirement of times on the overall development of socialism with Chinese characteristics from different perspectives.They respectively clarify the nature of socialist modernization with Chinese characteristics,keeping advancement of the Communist Party of China,realization of the scientific development of Chinese Modernization,and pushing the all-round development of Chinese socialist modernization.From the innovation theory of Marx to new concept of development proposed by Xi Jinping,Marxist innovation remains human-oriented value,practice-oriented theoretical position,and eternal criticism.It reveals the consistent historical inheritance,environment-specific adaptability,and flexible countermeasures that advance with times.In order to promote the development of Marxism theory sinicization,it is the key to apply Marxist innovation theoretical logic scientifically based on the reality of innovative nation construction.To push the development of sinicization of innovation theory,construct systematic national innovation platform,and create a harmonious and disciplined environment are the practical fields with most innovative value in socialist modernization with Chinese characteristics.
