Lenin's Concept Of Masses And Its Contemporary Value

The concept of the masses is the basic viewpoint and important branch of Marxism.It was founded by Marx and Engels,and it has been continuously enriched and developed by Lenin and several generations of our central leadership collective in practice and formed a complete theoretical system.Among them,Lenin's view of the masses is an important embodiment and an inherited development of both Marx and Engels's view of the masses.It is an organic constitution of the Marxist view of the masses.The theoretical exploration of Lenin's view of the masses is both an inevitable demand for the perfection and development of Lenin's view of the mass itself,and it is an indispensable part of the study of the Marxist view of the masses.This article crawls through the research significance,the conditions for the creation,the development process,the main contents,and the basic characteristics of Lenin's concept of the masses,analyzes Lenin's historical contributions to the mass viewpoint and the challenges it faces,and summarizes the Chinese Communist Party's inheritance and development of Lenin's View of the Masses.The first part is the introduction,which mainly discusses the research significance of Lenin's concept of mass from the perspective of theoretical innovation and practical development,and discusses the current research status of Lenin's view of the mass from both domestic and external dimensions.According to the characteristics of this topic,four research methods are mainly used:normative research method,literature research method,historical research method,and comparative research method.Based on the study of Leninism and Lenin's view of the masses,the Marxist view of the masses,and Lenin's view of the masses,this article tries to achieve the unity of system and parts,the combination of macro and micro,and the unity of dialectics and sublation.The second part,mainly discusses the conditions for the creation of Lenin's view of the masses.The article holds that Marx and Engels;view of the masses is the theoretical source of Lenin's view of the masses;the imperialist war is the time background of the Lenin's view of mass;Russia is the weak link in the capitalist chain;the irreconcilable domestic tension is the national conditions of Lenin's mass views.The third part,which mainly sorts out the development process of Lenin's view of the masses.The formation of Lenin's view of the masses did not happen overnight,but changed and developedcontinuously with the needs of revolution and practice.Lenin's view of the mass consists of four main historical stages:the first is the budding period,the second is the development period,the third is the mature period,and the fourth is the perfect period;Lenin's view of the masses gradually flourished in a series of complex theoretical struggles,continuously developed in the rising and falling workers'movement,gradually matured when the Soviet Union and the Russian Communist Party(Bolshevik)faced with difficulties and challenges,and continuously improved in the difficult socialist construction.The fourth and fifth parts,mainly discuss the main content of Lenin's view of the masses in terms of Lenin's views on the historical position of the masses,Lenin's understanding of the role of the masses,Lenin's description of the characteristics of the masses,and Lenin's attitude toward the masses.Based on this,the article believes that Lenin's view of the mass has at least four basic characteristics:people-oriented,revolutionary,practical,and innovative.The sixth part,summarizes the historical contribution of Lenin's view of the masses.On the one hand,Lenin's mass viewpoint enriched and developed the theory of the Marxist mass concept.On the other hand,it gave birth to and laid the standard for a new proletarian party.It not only changed and reshaped the pattern of the capitalist unification world,but also led and promoted the development of the proletariat liberation movement.The seventh part,mainly discusses the realistic challenges of Lenin's view of the masses.The formation and development of the Soviet model,the dramatic changes in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe,the market economy,and the development of the network informationization are the internal and external environments faced by Lenin's view of the masses;the variety of the masses,the diversity of the interests of the masses,the differentiation of the masses' needs,and the complexity of the masses' conflicts are the new features faced by Lenin's view of the masses;the fierce cooling of"Western Lenin Studies" and the gradual cooling of "Oriental Lenin Studies" are new changes in Lenin's view of the masses.The last part,mainly discusses the Chinese Communist Party's inheritance and development of Lenin's view of the masses.From Mao Zedong's leading the Chinese people to stand up,to Deng Xiaoping's leading the Chinese people to get rich,and then to Xi Jinping's leading the Chinese people to be strong,Lenin's mass viewpoint has been extended and developed in China.The article believes that in the period of comprehensive deepening reform,the Chinese communists as the successor of Marxism-Leninism standing at a new historical starting point,it is necessary to learn from,pass on,and develop Lenin's view on the masses by re-examining the relevant theories of Lenin's view of the masses and proceeding from the actual situation of the Chinese Communist Party's governance.Especially in the face of the "four major tests" and the "four major dangers" of the construction of the ruling party,in the implementation of the party's mass line education practice activities,in the time to lead the people of all nationalities to build a moderately prosperous society in all respects and to achieve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation,we can look for sources and lessons from Lenin's view of the masses.
