| Marx and Engels were the great revolutionary mentors in human history,and they devoted their whole lives to the great cause of social revolution and human liberation,and the social revolutionary theory formed in the continuous theoretical exploration and practical innovation occupied an important position in the whole Marxist Theory.After entering the 21st century,some people have changed under the pretext that Marx and Engels’ Social Revolution Theory has lost its luster in practice in the new era.In contemporary China,it has also been suggested that the Communist Party of China has completed the revolutionary task of seizing power and established a socialist system,and that its identity has been changed from "revolutionary political party" to "the ruling party",and Marx and Engels’ Social Revolution Theory will no longer apply.Now,the noise of "Revolutionary Outdated Theory’ and "Farewell to Revolutionary Theory" is endless,which makes one think:Does the development of contemporary society really not need revolutionary change?Is Marx and Engels’ Social Revolution Theory really out of date?The answer is clearly no.Therefore,it is particularly important and urgent to conduct a comprehensive systematic study of Marx and Engels’Social Revolution Theory,correctly understand and accurately grasp the true meaning of Social Revolution Theory and its basic contents,and eliminate the misreading of Marx and Engels’ Social Revolution Theory.Based on Marx and Engels’s classic text,this paper systematically and holistically combs Marx and Engels’ Social Revolution Theory and its development,and discusses it step by step according to concept connotation,historical generation,basic contents and contemporary value.The full text is divided into five parts.The first part is the introduction,which expounds the background,research significance and research status quo of Marx and Engels’ Social Revolution Theory.The second part is mainly to analyze the "Social Revolution" and its related concepts,and to clarify the differences and links between the concepts of "Social Revolution" and "Political Revolution","Social Improvement" and"Social Reform".The third part examines the background,theoretical origin and basic process of the formation of Marx and Engels’ Social Revolution Theory,and summarizes that Marx and Engels formed their own Social Revolutionary Theory on the basis of the critical absorption of Hegel’s philosophy of law,the social critical thought of enlightenment scholars and the reasonable composition of French socialist thought in the 19th century.The fourth part systematically discusses the basic contents of Marx and Engels’ Social Revolution Theory.This paper discusses its contents from the aspects of the driving force of social revolution,the process of social revolution,the main body and leadership of social revolution,and the purpose and means of social revolution.The fifth part is the contemporary significance of Marx and Engels’ Social Revolution Theory,which focuses on revealing its contemporary value from the three dimensions of the great social revolution in the new era in China,the contemporary world socialist revolution and human society. |
