Marx’s Theory of Historical Transcendence and the Creative Practice of Socialism in China
Author(s)Qingyuan, Fu
AbstractFacts prove that because of the inadequate understanding of the tortuous complexity of the path to socialism and insufficient ideological preparation for the task, it is rather easy to jump to a right ideology from a leftist guiding ideology. Gorbachev is the best proof of this. The collapse of socialism in the USSR and Eastern Europe was not due to the failure of the basic system and the principles of socialism, but the failure of a specific socialist model of practice, namely the “Soviet model.” The so-called “Soviet model” refers to the structure of the managerial system and the operating method adopted in the basic Soviet socialist system. As a type of socialist mode of practice, the Soviet model, of course, reflects and contains the basic system and principles of socialism. But, because serious malpractice existed in its structure, the basic system and principles of socialism were distorted and deformed, thus becoming an obstacle for the overall development of Soviet socialism.
