A Study Of The Controversy On "Destroying Private Ownership" In The Communist Manifesto

In the Communist Manifesto,Marx and Engels clearly pointed out:"The Communists can generalize their theories into one sentence:eliminating private ownership." The bourgeoisie has taken chance to smear the Communists to destroy individual property,to eliminate the basis of human personality,and they even threatened to all activities will be ended the wind of laziness will arise if the Communists eliminate private ownership.Marx and Engels refuted the above views.The Communists are to "eliminate the individuality,independence and freedom of the bourgeoisie." They think that there is a phenomenon in the bourgeois society that is"the workers do not get,the winners do not work." The bourgeoisie's blame on the Communists is not only in the field of production,but also extends to the spiritual realm.Marx and Engels also made a powerful counterattack for bourgeoisie's slanders on"eliminating private ownership" from both the economic base and the superstructure.Up to now,this slander still has existed.,the basic economic system has been criticized by people at this stage,which is harmful to the development of the socialist economy with Chinese characteristics.We cannot neither allow the elimination of private ownership by the Communists,nor allow the existence and development of.the non-public economy at this stage,and equally nor can we directly deny those Marxism classic writers' assertions on eliminating private ownership because we still necessary to allow the existence and development of the non-public economy at this stage in the process of reviewing the debate.Regarding the idea of eliminating private ownership,in fact,the two are not contradictory.We further study and research debate on "eliminating private ownership" in the Communist Manifesto will help us eliminate the theoretical chaos on the issue of "eliminating private ownership" and better safeguard the basic economic system in the primary stage of socialism.
