Theoretical Value And Practical Significance Of Lenin’s Idea Of Circuitous Transition

The theory of transition period is an important content of Marxist theory,especially the theory of scientific socialism,which has important guiding significance for the practice of realistic socialist countries and countries ready to take the socialist road.Marx and Engels defined the transition period as the period of revolutionary transformation from capitalism to communism.After the victory of the October Revolution in 1917,Lenin,on the basis of inheriting the theory of the transition period of Marx and Engels,explored the way of transition from backward countries to socialism,and successively tried the direct transition characterized by the wartime communist policy and the roundabout transition characterized by the new economic policy This idea not only has guiding significance for the reform and opening up in the transitional period and the primary stage of socialism in our country,but also has far-reaching influence on the construction of a powerful country in the new era,and also has theoretical value and practical significance for other countries in the world follow the socialist road.By analyzing the content,essence and guiding significance of Lenin’s circuitous transition thought to the socialist transition and taking the socialist road,and clarifying the logical relationship between Lenin’s circuitous transition thought,the general line of China’s transition period,the practice of reform and opening up in the primary stage of socialism and the comprehensive deepening of reform in the new era,it is necessary to correctly evaluate the profound significance of Lenin’s circuitous transition thought.First of all,the research adopts the method of literature and materials,mainly text analysis,combing the main content and essence of Lenin’s roundabout transition thought.Secondly,it adopts the unified method of history and logic,combined with the realistic socialist countries with backward political economy and culture,especially Russia and China in the background of the times and practice process,analyzes the background put forward by the thought of circuitous transition,and reveals the theoretical value and practical significance of Lenin’s circuitous transition thought.Through the above-mentioned methods,the following conclusions are drawn:Lenin inherited and developed Marx and Engels’ thought of the transitional period,and thought that the broad transitional period refers to the period in which there are two characteristics of social and economic structure,the declining capitalism and the growing communism struggle each other,which consists of three stages,one is from the overthrow of the bourgeois regime to the "mini-transition" period or the narrow transition period of the declaration of entering socialism,the other is from the declaration of entering socialism to the end of the underdeveloped socialist period,that is,the primary stage of socialism,and the third is from underdeveloped socialism to the construction of the more developed socialism,that is,the high stage of socialism.Stage one.Lenin’s thought of circuitous transition means that the way of transition from capitalism to socialism is not in place in one step,but through the use and restriction of capitalism to develop social productive forces and realize the transition to socialism;its core content is the implementation of new economic policies,specific measures such as the introduction of food tax,allowing a certain degree of free trade,supporting the development of small industries,encouraging concessions,etc.;the essence is a moderate strategic retreat,and the deep essence is to make full use of all the advanced civilization achievements created by capitalism to develop socialism.The transitional period of backward countries has the characteristics of long-term,difficult and dangerous,and the society with backward politics,economy and culture We must strengthen the leadership of the Party and improve the ability to control capital and market economy.Lenin’s thought of realizing strategic retreat through circuitous tactics has been proved by practice and has guiding significance for deepening the reform in an all-round way in the new era.The research suggestion is as follows: The contribution of Lenin’s circuitous transition thought to scientific socialism should be summarized by combining Marx’s theory of crossing the capitalist "Kaftin Grand Canyon ".
