Research On The Contribution Of Zhang Wentian's Democratic Thought To People's Democracy

Why does the people's democracy pursued and followed by the Chinese Communist Party become the choice of Chinese history?Why does the democratic program of the capitalist party fail to resolve the conflict between China's traditional agricultural society and foreign civilization,and fail to achieve the independence and revival of the Chinese nation?Based on the historical relationship between the development of Zhang Wentian's democratic thoughts and that of the people's democracy of the Communist Party,this article tries to find out the historical logic,theoretical logic,practical logic,experiences and lessons of the development of socialist democratic politics.Zhang Wentian's life has gone through a complex and difficult social transformation.He constantly explores,summarizes and reflects on China's path to democracy until the cost of life is paid.In the process of integrating the democratic thought of Zhang Wentian into the historical process of the democratic development of the political Party,the arduous and long process of a nation can be shown,from backwardness to liberation,and to the establishment of an advanced social system.In the process of Chinese revolution,national liberation and the construction of the democratic state,Zhang Wentian considered and practiced people's democracy from the angle of the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation,of establishing the advanced social system,and of the trend of the times and the people's will.The process also showed the Chinese Communist Party's efforts to independently design the form,to explore the rule and to rationally reflect China's democratization process.From Zhang Wentian's analysis of political,economic,social,cultural,military and other democratic conditions,we can infer their obstructing or promoting role in people's democracy.From the development and change of his thought and practice,we can analyze the development and change of the democratic thought and practice of the Communist Party.It is the democratic programme and revolutionary practice of the Communist Party's goal of“making people to be the masters”that breaks the thought confinement and the obstacle of the system,and becomes the political and economic theoretical sources of the new China's development.The thesis mainly uses historical and literature research methods,and takes the perspective of the dynamic development of the political thoughts history.It tries to analyze the democratic trends of thoughts in the era of Zhang Wentian,to describe how he follows the steps of the riot revolution,national salvation,and democratic state founding,to consider and practice people's democracy repeatedly throughout the democratization of China.Zhang Wentian firmly adheres to the party democracy to lead state democracy,so that China can achieve the acquisition and protection of the rights of the people,the establishment of a democratic country,and the consolidation of political system.With the development of people's democracy,the development of Zhang Wentian's democratic thoughts is roughly divided into four historical periods:the 1~stt stage was before Zhang Wentian joined the Communist Party of China in 1925,he had preliminarily formed a basicc concept of Marx's democracy,and at the same time he had realized the importance of combining China's national conditions.The 2~ndd stage was from 1925 to 1937,is the developing period of Zhang Wentian's democratic thoughts.At that time,the connotation of“people”was mainly the workers and peasants.From the content point of view,Zhang Wentian thought that the Communist Party had the role and function of the people's representative in the meaning of connotation.Judging from the formal point of view,levels of Soviets governments reflect the nature of the people's representative in the form of architecture.The 3~rdd stage was from 1937 to 1949,Zhang Wentian closely integrated the theory and practice of democratic party building and democratic state-founding with China's national conditions and social conditions,and expanded the democratic inclusion of the Communist Party to an unprecedented degree.On one hand,it is an objective time demand to save the nation from peril.On the other hand,it is also the subjective exploration of the Party's promotion of democratization and modernization of the state.These have led to the maturity of his democratic thoughts.His research and practice on these two aspects have promoted the absorption of the revolutionary factors in the new Three People's Principles.Meanwhile his emphasis on the democracy part of the Chinese nation's new culture and revealed the importance of“the people”as a main subject,which includes the peasant liberation and the patriotic united front under the patriotic anti-Japanese background.Zhang Wentian's ideas on the defense government and the Democratic Republic enriched the theory of the Communist Party on the construction of a democratic state and provided a theoretical reference for the establishment of a“New Democratic Republic”in Mao Zedong's“New Democracy Theory.”At the same time,his practice of democratic politics,economics,culture,and education for the Hejiang regime has made significant theoretical and practical explorations for the Communist Party to establish a nationwide people's democratic government.The 4~thh stage was after 1949,Zhang Wentian fully demonstrated the importance of developing people's democracy based on the main contradictions in the development stage of China's society.At this stage,if China wants to truly realize the people as the masters of the state,we must particularly pay attention to the use of democratic centralism to resolve the crisis faced by the Party,such as the expansion of the class struggle and going far from the people,which should be rationally self-examined.The Party's leading position can be guaranteed through the people's congress and the party's congress,and through the guidance of political,economic,social construction,etc.However,the precondition for the political leading role played by the Parties must be respecting and using objective economic laws and improve people's life standard,which can provide economic security for the democratic system.From the perspective of historical development,the emergence,development and maturity of Zhang Wentian's democratic thoughts not only reflects the development process of people's democracy from a micro level,but also makes unique contributions to the continuous maturity and perfection of the people's democracy.In the construction of socialist democratic politics,Zhang Wentian pointed out that it was necessary to rely on democratic centralism to solve the contradiction between the Party and the people,and to ensure the real realization of the people's democracy in accordance with the system of the Congress.In the economic development,Zhang Wentian put forward the view of using private capitalism and put forward the concept of state capitalism in the party for the first time.The first comprehensive exposition of the new democratic economic structure and the policy of economic construction has become an important part of Mao Zedong's theory of new democracy.After the founding of new China,zhang Wentian proposed to adjust the socialist economy with a market mechanism,and put forward the“Dual Nature of Production Relations”to correct the wrong logic of“non-capital-but-social-society”.To build democratic cultural,Zhang Wentian advocated the freedom of thought,the cultural and education to spread the democratic culture,protection and use of the intellectuals.In the party,the basic framework of the new democratic cultural theory system was first expounded by Zhang Wentian,and the democratic connotation of the new culture was emphasized.In the military,Zhang Wentian also contributed to the theory of the protracted war.The analysis and summary of Zhang Wentian's democratic thoughts will help to understand and study the long-term struggle for the formation of the people's democracy.It helps to absorb the essence of the thoughts that has crossed the time and space,to reflect on the experience and lessons of China in the exploration of the hardship of democracy,to improve the ruling ability of the Communist Party of China,to inherit the democratic culture,and to promote the steady development of the people's democracy.
