The Internet as the core of the information revolution has greatly changed the traditional way of life, way of thinking and behavior. With the development of network software and hardware technology constantly upgrading, the number of Internet users has increased dramatically, according to the China Internet Network Center statistics report shows, China’s Internet users only six hundred and twenty thousand in 1997, as of December 2015, the scale of China’s Internet users reached six hundred and eighty-eight million, the scale of China’s mobile phone users reached six hundred and twenty million.Such a huge network users to the trend of social thought in the spread of the network has also been an unprecedented development trend. It can be said that the Internet has been extended to all corners of the community, the network has become a trend of thought, the interests of the distribution center and the ideological battle field.Especially network openness, anonymity, dispersion, fast and other characteristics,greatly broaden the ordinary people involved in the channel of social trend of thought,also released the individual energy, including blog, micro-blogging, social networking sites and micro channel, QQ and other instant messaging tools "from the media" is will allow individuals to access the unprecedented power of discourse.And the discourse power of the network is a typical feature of the populism. At present, in the bottom of the masses caused a serious imbalance in the social state of mind, increasingly anxious social mood, escalating social contradictions, distorted social value criterion that "enemy rich" and "enemy office ", become a common social psychological. Network is a new situation for the production of populism sentiment. It can be said that, under the catalysis of the network, the combination of the populism with the real society, formation of a new trend of mutual transformation between virtual and reality.In essence, the network populism also can not only be called mature but also systematic having a complete system of social thought, it is more significance to rely onthe Internet and other modern technology, caused by social transformation and reform of the media spread in the network of public opinion, to young netizens as the representative, with equality and fairness and resistance to oppression and reasonable factors in the pursuit of value, and in the foundation with paranoid anti-elite, antiauthority, anti-intellectualism; way of thinking with more extreme grass-roots, more direct participation, more intense criticism and a social emotional and psychological reaction is more than rational characteristics of the complex, is a kind of position,attitude or behavior.Network of populism and populism is a kind of mutual connection and mutual difference, at the same time between the virtual and the reality of the transformation of the relationship between the two, is a simple online and offline relationships. Network populism is the extension and development of the populism in the network. populism is a basis of network populism. Network populism mood with the spread of Internet users spread to social reality, and the basic value pursuit of populism is the first, against authority and elite, directly involved also in the network is constantly enlarged.Therefore, the research basis in network populism and populistm relations, First the thesis explores the relationship between Marxism and populism, and Marxism classical writers of populism holds a dialectical criticism and actively absorb the rational kernel of the attitude, the research is followed and reference and the basic attitude of Marxist basic principle, for network populism to generate specific context in the complex social environment, of populism in China’s emergence of exploration and research.Second, the emphasis of this thesis is the network populism rise and development process, from its carrier, the subject, the object, the guide to summarize populism the essential characteristics and value appeal, namely take the network as a platform, to direct participation, direct democracy as the representation, the "civilian subject construction, and in the form of discourse of dispossession and monopoly of the language, and the binary opposition between the enemy way of thinking, to group nonrational behavior against elites, dispelling the authority. Analysis of the expression from social emotional catharsis and social position of the form. To spread the public opinion propagation model of the case to verify the nature of network populism, summarized the network populism mechanism. In marxist dialectical materialism view clarify network populism of the positive role of social reality, directly harm and negative impact.Finally, according to the relationship between populism and network populism of the Internet, network, first of all from the online technical characteristics and social psychological factors and social class differentiation. Analysis network populism of the prosperity of the factors. Secondly according to the influencing factors, by China’s socialist core value concept to lead the basic value pursuit of populism, online construct ecotypic network society, adjust the contemporary social class structure in the network,to achieve network populism persuasion and governance.The dialectical materialism and historical materialism are the paper’s fundamental research method, combining the method of qualitative analysis and case analysis,analysis method of virtuality and reality combination, traditional and network resources integration method, and the comprehensive communication, psychology, sociology and other disciplines, of network populism of comprehensive analysis of this article. At the same time, it inspects the interaction between the network and the reality of the populism from the dynamic point of view.The innovation of this article lies in Marxist classical writers of Russian populism "dialectical critically absorb its reasonable kernel" as the basic attitude of populism, at the same time to network communication theory model combined with case inductive populism in the network mechanism, combined with the modern theories of social stratification, analyze network populism in the period of economic transition, the background of social interest differentiation, resulting in "elite- middle class- at the bottom of society" mode of this kind of class is caused by the network of populism of the root causes.To grasp the relationship of populism and populism concept is the difficulty of this article.There is no unified definition of the connotation of populism, and its dependency and uncertainty, coupled with the network itself is a double-edged sword, connotation of the network of populism and its relationship and populism is more difficult to grasp the,so this thesis still take from the phenomenon to the nature of the abstraction,Inspect the emergence and development of network populism.After the analysis of the theory and the practice, we can draw a conclusion that:Overall, our country didn’t systematically dissertate the network populism theory and ideology, there is no form of organized group, network populism have not distinct value aim and action. It embodies more for Internet users on the network with the populist ideological tendency of a kind of emotional catharsis, an expression of the underlying standpoint and a way of group polarization behavior. In the process of its performance, it is hard to separate implementation, general is to express oneself through the form of network public opinion, or combined with other doctrine, is possible from the network public opinion into the reality of social mobilization force.Network populism is not the mainstream of society, although its expression of emotions and ideas still have a certain market, but relative to the Marx doctrine, it is in the secondary position of thinking. But this thought undercurrent still need users vigilant, to avoid the release of the "pseudo public opinion" lead to new social movement. Therefore, we should combined with China reality, on the network of populism should attach great importance to, and to face the double effect of the network itself, it is necessary to absorb its reasonable one side to promote positive energy, but also the reasonable control of the network, lead and grooming networks populism to the socialist core value concept, prevent extreme populism sentiment, simple, expansion, so as to establish a healthy ecological network society.
