Study On Lenin’s View Of Cultural Motive Force And Its Contemporary Value

Culture is the product of human historical activities,which is composed of material pr oducts and spiritual products.The progress of social politics and economy needs the suppo rt and promotion of cultural forces.The diversity of cultural existence forms determines th e diversity of its power representation,which can not only regulate people’s words and dee ds,but also objectively reflect the historical changes of the human world.It can not only ad d impetus to political and economic prosperity and development,but also protect social har mony and stability.Every aspect of social life provides a platform for culture to show its p ower,which in turn acts on human beings and has a multi-dimensional and far-reaching an d lasting influence on people’s production and life.Lenin’s understanding and interpretation of cultural power is based on Marx and Enge ls’ thought of cultural power,which is the enrichment and extension of Marx and Engels’ t heory of social development power in the Soviet period,showing distinct characteristics of The Times and rigorous logical structure,and its philosophical foundation lies in historical materialism and materialist dialectics.Lenin always insisted on starting from the height of historical materialism,in-depth analysis and elaboration of ideology,spiritual belief,ideolo gical and political education,literature and art and other aspects of the cultural forces of th e source of productivity,elaborated the above cultural categories on the political,economic and military development of the Soviet Republic’s important role in promoting.In terms o f ideology,Lenin emphasized the guiding role of scientific theory in practice,regarded "rev olutionary theory" as the driving force behind "revolutionary movement",affirmed the nec essity of transforming the power of thought into material power,and paid attention to the r ole of intellectuals and social backbone in propaganda and expression of ideology.In terms of spiritual belief,Lenin emphasized the significance of Marxism as the "beacon" of the pr oletarian revolution,regarded Marxism as the only correct and scientific world outlook of t he proletariat,strengthened socialist belief and communist moral education,and made clea r the role of spiritual belief in bringing into play the cohesion and combat effectiveness of t he masses of workers and peasants.In terms of ideological and political education,Lenin p ointed out the status and function of ideological and political education,regarded "political education" and "political agitation" as important means to cultivate the cultural power of t he masses,and affirmed the political function of socialist education in breaking "old habits" and "old customs".Make clear the important role of scientific and legal knowledge for th e peasant masses to fight for freedom and liberation and get rid of religious bondage;In lite rature and art,Lenin regarded literary and artistic creation as the "cogs and screws" of the Party’s cause,stressed the principles of "party character" and "people character" in literatur e and art,affirmed the inspiring and critical role of literary and artistic workers and their ex cellent literary and artistic works,opposed the vulgar literary and artistic creation and their "obscene","erotic" and "bizarre" works,and paid special attention to the scientific inherita nce and innovation of historical and cultural heritage;In terms of the cultural revolution,Le nin regarded the Soviet working masses as the subject of practice and the source of power,and believed that the cultural revolution was not only an important force for promoting the "cooperative" of Soviet socialism and transforming the Soviet "state organs",but also a po werful driving force for dismantling the "old ideas" and building a "new society".Although Lenin’s view of cultural dynamics was limited by historical conditions,it pr ovided important theoretical guidance for the construction of Soviet socialism at that time,provided useful reference and clue for the modernization construction of various socialist c ountries in the world at that time,and also had important enlightenment for our current soci alist cultural construction.In building socialist culture with Chinese characteristics,we mus t give full play to the guiding force and cohesion of core socialist values,strengthen educat ion in Communist ideals and beliefs,strengthen the common ideal of socialism with Chine se characteristics,enhance the political guidance and ideological appeal of ideological and political education,adhere to the principles of "Party spirit" and "people spirit" in literature and art,create fine works of literature and art,and stimulate the power of literature and art.Efforts should be made to integrate cultural forces from all aspects into the whole process,all-round and all-round field of cultural construction of socialism with Chinese characteris tics.
