Since the late 1970 s,with the development of economic globalization,there has been a third wave of democratization in the world,which has a great influence and a deep influence.In the development of human society,there have never been so many countries in the construction and practice of democratic politics,which has become the main goal of political modernization.At the same time,western countries advocate western democracy all over the world,claiming that it is the most perfect and invincible.Therefore,the rising tide of democratization is not only a great challenge to the construction of socialist democracy with Chinese characteristics,but also an opportunity for the development of the construction of socialist democracy with Chinese characteristics.Summing up historical experience,social development should conform to the historical trend.The development of socialist democracy with Chinese characteristics should not only conform to the trend of democracy in the world,but also maintain its own characteristics;we should not only absorb the beneficial results of the democratic development of all countries in the world,but also actively build socialist democracy based on China's own reality in combination with our own national conditions.In order to embody real democracy in practice,we need scientific theoretical guidance,and we need to learn from the beneficial experience of socialist democracy construction.Marxist theory is a scientific theory proved by practice,and Marx's "real democracy" is a democratic thought worth learning from in China.Marx's thought of "real democracy" did not come into being out of nothing.It inherited the democratic thoughts of ancient Greece,modern bourgeoisie and utopian socialism.By criticizing Hegel's thought of "the state decides the civil society" and the bourgeois representative system,Marx pointed out that bourgeois democracy is not a real democracy.To realize the people's ownership,we need a "real democracy".The thought of "real democracy" was first seen in Marx's early work critique of Hegel's philosophy of law.Marx pointed out that democracy is the essence of all state systems,only democracy is the real unity of universality and particularity,and the political state is lost in the real democracy.It can be seen that the "real democracy" must be both the state's Depolitical and the society's depersonalized democracy.Marx pointed out in his book civil war in France,which summarized the experience of Paris Commune,that commune laid the foundation of real democratic system for the Republic.Through a series of principles,institutional measures and guarantee,Paris Commune provides a practical basis for the emergence of "true democracy".However,what we need to consider is the value of "real democracy" put forward by Marx for the construction of socialist democracy in the new era? Therefore,starting from the formation process of Marx's "real democracy",this paper points out that "real democracy" is formed on the basis of inheriting and criticizing the former thought of people's democracy.Secondly,it points out that Paris Commune is a beneficial attempt to Marx's thought of "real democracy".Thirdly,it further discusses Marx's scientific summary of "real democracy" in the Paris commune period,pointing out that the essence of "real democracy" is that the people are the masters of the country.Only when the proletariat masters the state power and establishes the dictatorship of the proletariat,can it realize the free and all-round development of human beings in the high-level of communism,that is,to realize the real democracy.Finally,it summarizes the theoretical and practical value of Marx's "true democracy".Marx's thought of "real democracy" is an important part of the theory of scientific socialism.Theoretically speaking,Marx's "true democracy" is the ideological weapon for us to dialectically treat western democratic politics,the theoretical tool for us to deeply understand the essence of socialist democracy,the theoretical guide for guiding the formation of Chinese Marxist democratic thought,further strengthening the understanding of people-centered development thought and deepening the rule of law of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era Thought: in practice,it is conducive to the organic unity of the party's leadership,the people's ownership and the rule of law,the adherence to and improvement of China's people's Congress system,the promotion of the development of socialist consultative democracy with Chinese characteristics in the new era,the improvement of power restriction and supervision system,and the cultivation of citizens' democratic consciousness.
