Research On The Development Process Of The Essential Theory Of Socialism

The essence of socialism is the essential characteristic of a socialist society which is different from other social forms.In the late 1980 s and early 90 s,the upheaval in Eastern Europe and the disintegration of the Soviet Union brought great challenges to the development and progress of socialism.On the basis of absorbing the experience of the Soviet Union,the Chinese Communists deeply thought and grasped the essence of socialism,and explored the road of socialistic Chinese characteristics and achieved success in combination with the reality of China.It can be seen that accurately grasping the essence of socialism is the objective requirement of adhering to and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics.On the basis of exposing and criticizing the contradictions of capitalism and thinking of the future social conception,Marx and Engels established the understanding of the essential characteristics of Socialism: the public ownership of production data,the planned economy,and the free and comprehensive development of human beings.The initial practice of socialism in Russia proved the scientific nature of socialism.Based on this,Lenin pointed out that socialism is the practice of the people's common pursuit of good days.The essence of socialism is the rapid development of the productive forces,the cooperative work system and the proletariat's mastery of the state's political power.The establishment of the socialist country of the Soviet Union deepened the theory of scientific socialism by the practice of the socialist system.However,the Soviet Union was disintegrated because of the increasingly unrealistic practice and continuous rigid institutional mechanism in the process of construction.In the course of exploring the road of socialist development,the Chinese Communists have created socialism with Chinese characteristics,and gradually deepened their understanding of the essence of socialism.Through the study of the creation of Marx's scientific socialism and the process of socialist practice in the Soviet Union and the socialism with Chinese characteristics,we can see that the essence of socialism has adhered to the law of historical materialism from theory generation,practice and time development,and socialism with Chinese characteristics is the essence of socialism.We must stick to and stick to the "common value" goal of socialism and constantly push forward the development of socialism with Chinese characteristics.
