Since the 21 st century,the Manifesto of the Communist Party has been popular again in the English speaking world because of the failure of capitalist economics,the accelerated differentiation of capitalist society and the decline of capitalist ideology.In the face of the treacherous capitalist world,British Marxism found that the "anti value" of unlimited expansion,the invasion of capital logic to reality and virtual space,"Anti globalization" and "ecological crisis" are the new conditions of contemporary capitalism.British Marxism fully affirmed the theoretical prediction in the Manifesto of the Communist Party: "The sawtooth economic crisis","the general alienation of bourgeois society" and "the contradiction between productivity and production relations" reflect on the theoretical limitations of the Manifesto of the Communist Party,the historical changes of some concepts and the limitations of philosophical deduction,the proletariat of the world has not yet been widely united..At the same time,British Marxism reexamines the theoretical connotation of the Manifesto of the Communist Party.In their view,the theory of "class struggle" still has practical significance that cannot be ignored;the internal contradictions of capitalism are mainly manifested in the contradiction between exchange value and use value,"The contradiction between overproduction and the decline of purchasing power","The contradiction between concrete labor and digital labor","The contradiction between general intelligence and immaterial labor",etc;They reflect on "economic determinism,mechanical determinism and multiple determinism",and think that the explanation of "economic basis determines superstructure" under the methodology of "process relationship dialectics" is more in line with the requirements of the times;They believed that "the development of productive forces","the principle of community" and "justice and equality" are the effective premises of "the free man’s Union",and "socialistglobalization" is the only way to go towards "the free man’s Union".They reflect on "economic determinism,mechanical determinism and multiple determinism",and think that the explanation of "economic basis determines superstructure" under the methodology of "process relationship dialectics" is more in line with the requirements of the times;they think that "the development of productivity","the principle of common body","justice and equality" are the effective premise of "free man’s Union","Socialist globalization" is the only way to the "free people’s Union".Based on the study of the influence of the Manifesto of the Communist Party on the English speaking world since the 21 st century,this paper attempts to explain the theoretical logic and value of the text and Its Enlightenment to contemporary China: The first is to highlight the practical significance of Scientific Socialism: from "people’s historical view" to "people’s sharing",emphasizing the free and all-round development of human beings and the inevitable trend of human society towards socialist and Communist society;Second,the unity of practice and theory: the great practice of China’s reform and opening up is the profound embodiment of the theoretical logic and practical logic of the Communist Manifesto."Xi Jinping’s socialist ideology with Chinese characteristics in the new era" is the latest creative achievement of the historical logic,theoretical logic and practical logic of China’s Manifesto of the Communist Party.Third,to strengthen socialist construction,we must adhere to the determination of the leadership of the Communist Party of China: the Communist Party of China is the leader,explorer and achiever of socialist construction with Chinese characteristics in the new era,adhering to the leadership of the Communist Party of China,strengthening the "Four Consciousness",strengthening the "four self-confidence" and achieving the "two maintenance" are the fundamental guarantee for the realization of the goal of socialist modernization with Chinese characteristics in the new era.
