Jiang Zemin's Socialist And Capitalist Relations Theory Study

How to identify and handle the relationship between socialism and capitalism is a significant research subject of scientific socialism theory. The Marxism classical writers,Marx, Engels, Lenin and Stalin, as well as CPC's first two generations'core-leaders,Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping, all kept researching and exploring the subject. Finally, they made a series of great theoretical achievements, which becomes the theoretical origins of CPC's third generation core-leader Jiang Zemin's theory on the relationship between socialism and capitalism.The thesis discusses Jiang Zemin's theory on the relationship between socialism and capitalism from four aspects. Firstly, his reflection on the historic procession of socialism and capitalism induces the general trend of human history that socialism will finally substitute capitalism. Secondly, there are striking differences between socialism and capitalism. Thirdly, opposition and conflict exist between socialism and capitalism. At last, socialism and capitalism can coexist and cooperate. The thesis further concludes inspirations gained from Jiang Zemin's theory as follows:We should regard the coexistence of socialism and capitalism as a general international characteristic and properly deal with the struggle and the identity of opposites of the relationship between socialism and capitalism. Based on the reality of backward economy and culture in China, we should persist in the principles but make use of strategies flexibly while dealing with the relationship between socialism and capitalism. Judging from the theories that productive force should match productive relationship and that truth and value should be unified, Jiang Zemin's theory promulgates the essential distinctions between socialism and capitalism. According to the theory on the development regularity of human beings, we should have faith in two"irresistible trends", that is, capitalism is irresistible to be perished and socialism is irresistible to gain success in the end.In a word, Jiang Zemin's theory on the relationship between socialism and capitalism is of directive significance for us on how to identify and handle the relationship with capitalism while we are keeping on building the socialism with Chinese characteristics.
