Marx's Oriental Social Theory And Its Contemporary Significance

Marx's theory of Oriental society contains rich value.It is an important part of Marx's theory.It was put forward against the background of the rapid development of western capitalism and the growing colonial expansion in the late 1970 s and early 1980 s.The thought of world history is the initial form of the theory of Oriental society.Under the conditions of world history,symbiosis and leap are possible.According to the characteristics of Asian mode of production,Marx put forward that Oriental society can absorb the excellent achievements of capitalism,avoid the suffering of capitalism,and cross the "Kafdin Gorge" to pursue a better socialist life directly.Crossing the "Kafdin Canyon" is a great and brilliant achievement in Marx's thought in his later years.It realizes the unity of historical scale and value scale,the regularity of historical development and the diversity of roads.In his later years,Marx envisaged that the Oriental countries could realize the modernization of industrial civilization under socialist conditions.The Chinese Revolution led by Mao Zedong made socialism from ideal to reality.Starting from a new dimension,Deng Xiaoping opened up a road to complete the construction of market economy and modernization of industrial civilization under socialist conditions.In the new era of coexistence of peace and development,the socialism with Chinese characteristics has paid more attention to the concern of the people.Xi Jinping,from the perspective of world history,put forward the "one belt and one road" Cooperation Initiative and the great practice of building the community of human destiny.The socialist road with Chinese characteristics is the unity of the regularity and value of the road of historical development.Like Marx,it regards human liberation as the core of all theories and the highest value pursuit.
