On Mao Zedong's Thought Of Understanding And Handling Of The Relationship Between Public And Private

The issue of public and private is the most basic problem in the development of human society.It has always been widely concerned by people,because it is closely related to individual,social and national development.During the historical journey of leading the Chinese people to overthrow the old China and build a new society,Mao Zedong put forward rich ideas and established a complete theoretical system about how to understand and deal with the publicprivate relations.Mao Zedong's thought of understanding and dealing the publicprivate relations originated from the inheritance of Chinese traditional thoughts about public and private,the inheritance of Marx's theory of public and private and the experience of dealing with public and private issues in socialist countries.Mao Zedong accepted Chinese education of traditional culture and got a profound impact on the Da Tong thought that he usually linked the idea of Da Tong thought and communism after he accepted communism;He respected“two break” thought and saw it as the theoretical foundation of understanding and dealing with the publicprivate relations;He was very familiar with the experience and lessons of Soviet Union and Eastern European socialist countries dealing with privatepublic relations,so he can learn the useful content from it and deepen his understanding of the publicprivate relations.The formation of Mao Zedong's thought of understanding and dealing with the publicprivate relations had basically gone through three stages,“advocated public affairs and objected the private,longed for a common and holy region”,“given the same consideration to public and private and united the great revolutionary forces”,and “removed private for public to create new people in society”.It has some obvious phase characteristics,put ‘public' in the head,always insist ‘for public' goal,dialectical treat the ‘private' and allow the existence of‘private',use the ‘public' to reform the ‘private',gradually eliminate the conception of private and private ownership.The core content of Mao Zedong's thought of understanding and dealing with the publicprivate relations is embodied system,apparatus and thought three aspects.In terms of ownership,he considered replacement of private ownership by public ownership as a historical trend and believed that public ownership was the starting point of socialist theory,logic and practice;In terms of concept,he emphasized the transformation of ideological concepts,advocated that the public concept replaced the private concept,and eliminated the "private" in people's minds.In practice,he advocated to coordinate the national,collective and individual interests,promoted public welfare before private interests,stressed on giving the same consideration to public and private,opposed detriment of the public interest forpersonal gain;meanwhile,He emphasized that Communists should be selfless and become examples for correct understanding and dealing with the publicprivate relations in the whole society.This four aspects support each other,form a complete theoretical system.The thought of understanding and dealing with the publicprivate relations is an important part of Mao Zedong's thought.It influenced Mao Zedong's profound grasp of relationship between public and private.Into a new era,the connotation of “public” and “private” has changed,it need us to further understand and deal with the relationship between public and nonpublic ownership,the relationship between Socialism and Capitalism,the relationship between economic development and human comprehensive development,the relationship between ideal beliefs and personal interests,never forget why you start,keep in mind your mission,uphold and develop Socialism with Chinese Characteristics,contribute China's wisdom,China's plan and China's strength for the realization of a better future for human society.That is the empirical inspiration and value from studying the Mao Zedong's thought of understanding and dealing with the publicprivate relations.
