In new historical conditions, persisting in and developing the Marxist mass view, making theoretical and practice innovation constantly and leading people of all nationalities in the country to struggle for the new success of construction of socialism with Chinese characteristics have important theoretical and practical significance.Marxist mass view has been examined and tested in practice, which has guided the proletariat movement to achieve success over and over again with its real knowledge and deep insight and left huge exploratory space to scholars studying the theory of mass. Although world politics, economic and culture have changed greatly nowadays, Marxist mass view still has widely significant influence and strong vitality and still acts as a powerful ideological weapon of CPC to learn and change the world. Following the historical line of Marxist mass view’s formation and development, under the guidance of materialistic conception of history, the paper combines text interpretation with history-theory integration to sort out the historical formation and basic contents of Marxist mass view, restore the true features of Marxist mass view, explore the important significance and path choice for CPC to implement Marxist mass view in the new period and provide a solid theoretical foundation for the socialist mass work with Chinese characteristics.The paper includes the following contents: first, the paper analyzes man views of classical Marxist writers and sorts out and summarizes the theories of Marxist mass view from perspectives of the concepts, contents and characteristics of Marxist mass view; next, the paper expounds the formation and development history of mass line in different historical backgrounds; then, the paper analyzes the main contents and value of Marxist mass view and explores the significance for CPC to persist in Marxist mass view in the new period; finally, the paper persists in and deepens the guiding role of Marxist mass view from perspectives of inheritance and innovation, explores the measures to promote the development of CPC’s mass work practice, and pushes forward the consistency of CPC and the masses in fundamental interests.The paper includes 7 chapters:Chapter One, Introduction.

The chapter mainly expounds the historical background and theoretical origin of Marxist mass view’s generation, and the characteristics not to be neglected for Marx and Engels to build the Marxist mass view.

The chapter tries to expound the historical history of Marxist mass view’s generation, enrichment, development and sublimation from vertical and horizontal dimensions. From the vertical perspective, the theoretical system of Marxist mass view comes down in one continuous line in the inheritance-development relationship; from the horizontal perspective, the formation of Marxist mass view involves the relationships between individual idea and collective intelligence and between the breakthrough of key points and overall promotion. Marxist mass view is not formed in an action; instead, it has a long historical development process and formed a systematical and scientific theoretical system gradually in the practice of the masses.Chapter Five, Main Contents of Marxist Mass View. The chapter mainly describes the core points and basic characteristics of Marxist mass view. The theory of Marxist mass view is an organically unified whole with one principle running through it.

Moreover, Marxist mass view will show inherent value more clearly in its development.Chapter Seven, Implement Marxist Mass View in China is the need of the Times. On the basis of analyzing and studying the theories of Marxist Mass view and according to the practical mass work situation of CPC currently, the chapter deeply discusses and explores the theoretical development of Marxist mass view and mass work mechanism innovation in new times, enriches the theories and applies them into practice to guide the mass work in the new period and better promote the development of socialism with Chinese characteristics. Applying and developing Marxist mass view in practice not only conforms to the historical laws for the self-motion of theory but also is an inevitable choice to promote the sustainable development of Marxist mass view. To do mass work better and maintain the close relationship with the masses, it’s necessary for CPC to face the difficulties and challenges in mass work and solve them properly, and improve the mass work system with the times.The innovative points of the paper are mainly in the following four aspects:First, according to current situation of lack of systematic study on Marxist mass view in academic world, the paper systemically sorts out and in-depth researches the theories of Marxist mass in classics of Marxism, CPC’s historical documents and important speeches, and tries to summarize the core points to make Marxist mass view more systematic.Second, the paper sorts out and systematically researches Marxists’ theories of mass view in historical periods following the historical development line of Marxist mass view, tries to show the overall historical process from generation, development to sublimation of Marxist mass view, grasps the nature and significance of Marxist mass view more correctly, and systematically summarizes the core points and basic characteristics of Marxist mass view and points out the view’s great value in consideration of the characteristics of times.Third, the research on Marxist mass view in academic world has thick political colors and should be further deepened in aspects of theoretical research and academic research. The paper tries to cover the shortage and, on the basis of existing research, more focuses on academic research and the important value of academic research for the realityFourth, facing current situation and the characteristics of times, the paper makes the research and analysis by combining Marxist mass view with the situation of China, and offers theoretical support to CPC’s mass work in the new period so that CPC can use the theories into practice to creatively build a long-term mechanism for the mass work in China. |
