A Study On Lenin’s Authority Thought And Its Contemporary Value

Authority presupposes obedience and originates from the object’s identification from the heart.The authority of the proletariat has an important function of gathering people’s hearts,forming consensus and standardizing behavior.The strength of leadership and the correctness of leadership will affect the effectiveness of authority.Lenin’s authority thought is the important theory of Marxist party,which guides the proletarian revolution to win the final victory and promotes the establishment of socialist system in Russia.Lenin’s authority thought and practice is the fundamental political guarantee for the stability of the Party and the state,and is of great historical,theoretical and practical significance for adhering to and strengthening the overall leadership of the Party in the new era and achieving the goal of the second century.Lenin’s authority thought is the inheritance and development of Marx and Engels’authority thought,and the product of Russia’s specific production and life style,social development and certain psychological and cultural conditions.At the beginning of the 20th century,the reactionary nature of imperialism was increasingly exposed,and the contradictions between imperialism,between imperialism and the domestic working people,and between the broad masses of colonial and semi-colonial people became increasingly acute and inevitable.After the establishment of the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party,it was the first to encounter the economic faction.In addition,the party gradually split into Martov,Plekhanov represented by the Mensheviks and Lenin led by the Bolsheviks,progressives,advocates,conciliators,cancellers,returnees,ultimatums and other anti-party opportunists have betrayed the revolution.After the victory of the October Revolution,the world was still in an international environment in which the First World War was raging,and the new Soviet regime was hostile and besieged by the imperialist countries and domestic hostile forces.Lenin led the Bolshevik Party in a resolute struggle,which effectively maintained the stability of the Soviet regime.Lenin’s thought of authority is a main line running through the Bolshevik Party’s capture and consolidation of the Soviet regime.Lenin’s authority thought attached great importance to the construction of organization,determined the principle of organization activities of democratic centralism,and maintained the core position of leaders with a strict organizational system while overcoming bureaucratism and individual worship.At a time of growing strength within the Party,Comrade Lenin unswervingly purified the ranks of the Party,improved the quality of its membership development,and bore the brunt of combating formalism,bureaucracy and other unhealthy tendencies.The Party attaches great importance to the Constitution of the Party and the building of discipline,strictly defines its political life and imposes severe sanctions on those who seriously violate discipline.The Bolshevik Party widely coordinated the interests of various classes,regarded the worker-peasant alliance as the foundation of governance,and implemented special policies in minority areas.From multi-party "separation of power" to "one party in power",to defend the party’s unshakable leadership of state power,clear functions of the party and government,the implementation of the separation of the party and government.From the core content of Lenin’s authority thought,we can conclude that this scientific authority thought has the characteristics of concentration,revolution and democracy.Maintaining the authority of the CPC Central Committee and strengthening the ideological armed force of scientific theory are two experiences of Lenin’s authority thought.Since the 18th National Congress of the CPC,the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core has not only inherited and developed the above experience,but also combined it with the central tasks of the CPC in the new era and new journey,and creatively put forward theoretical achievements and practical measures in line with the development requirements of the times,such as highlighting political construction,strengthening ideals and beliefs,purifying the ranks within the Party,strengthening the construction of work style,effectively regulating powers and doing a good job in united front work.Lenin’s authority thought is connected with the practice of governing the Party strictly and leading the social revolution with self-revolution in the new era.Carrying out the inner-party learning education,promoting the work with the Party’s innovative theory and consolidating the leadership of ideological work have taken a solid step.Attaching importance to team building,defining the standards for good cadres in the new era and attaching great importance to the fundamental problem of successors.The Central Committee of the CPC has held fast to the Eight Cardinal Principles of the CPC Central Committee to rectify the "Four Winds",prevent formalism and bureaucracy from spreading in secret places and uphold Party discipline and discipline.Effectively regulate power,give play to the role of inner-party supervision and inspection,but also improve the accuracy of accountability,to avoid "excessive accountability." The Chinese Communists persist in seeking common ground while reserving differences,broadly unite democratic and friendly personages from all walks of life and seek consistency in respecting diversity,thus opening up a new phase in the united front work.Looking back at the century-long struggle of the Communist Party of China,it is not difficult to find that whenever the Party is faced with major external challenges or difficulties in its own construction,successive leaders will predict the situation,eliminate risks and solve problems from Lenin’s authority thought,which has become the magic weapon for the Communist Party of China to maintain its vigor and vitality.In the aspect of theoretical value,Lenin’s authority thought is beneficial to enrich and develop Marxist authority thought,which is the value obedience of the Marxist party in power for a long time.As for the practical value,Lenin’s authority thought is the CPC’s action guide to guard against and defuse major risks,the ideological support to lead the social revolution by self-revolution,the spiritual arm to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation,and the strategic direction to strengthen the people’s political recognition and emotional support.
