Lenin’s Socialist Ideology And Contemporary Values

As the world is undergoing rapid development,adjustment and transformation,the situation of political multi-polarization,economic globalization and cultural diversification has become increasingly prominent.Especially under the rapid promotion of modern information,various ideological and cultural exchanges,blending,and confrontations are becoming more frequent,and the construction and security of ideology is also more important and urgent.Since the birth of the Marxist ideological theory,the power of its truth has crossed and broken the geographical boundaries and the barriers of the times,and has profoundly affected the development of world history.In Marx’s view,consciousness,whether it takes nature or society as its object,is essentially social consciousness,and there is no concept other than“social consciousness” in the world.Through the three levels of “negative consciousness”,“false consciousness”,and “superstructure consciousness”,Marx revealed the five characteristics as “class nature”,“masking”,“practicality”,“systematic” and “relative independence” of ideology.It can be said that the emergence of Marxist ideological theory is an extremely important event in the history of human thought.It not only solved the mystery of thought and spirit,but also made mankind begin to reconsider this era in a philosophical sense.The birth of Lenin’s socialist ideological thought can be regarded as the achievement of the 20 th century revival of Marxist ideological theory.This idea not only inherits the spiritual essence of Marx’s ideology,but also meets the needs of the times.In essence,ideology is both a theoretical and a practical problem.In terms of theory,Lenin took the lead in proposing the concept of “socialist ideology” and clarified its scope of use.Lenin’s ideological system of socialist ideology covers ideological security,ideological leadership,ideological struggle and ideological education.In practice,Lenin’s ideological system guides the construction and practice of the country’s economy,politics,culture,and the promotion of mainstream ideological discourse power.By overcoming difficulties,actively guiding,and instilling socialist ideology,the guiding position of Marxism has been defended.This article takes the “formation and development-main content-practical path-theoretical contribution-contemporary value” of Lenin’s socialist thought as the research idea,mainly from five aspects to systematically sort out and study in depth.The first chapter is an overview of the relevant theories of Lenin’s socialist ideology.This chapter is the theoretical source and basis of the research,including the basic concept of ideology,the basic content and characteristics of Marxist ideological theory,and the concept of Lenin’s “socialist ideology”.The first part explains the historical origin and development of ideology,the nature of ideology and the category of ideology studied in this thesis.The second part expounds the basic content and characteristics of Marxist ideology.The third part summarizes Lenin’s ideological thought from the two aspects of the emergence of “socialist ideology” and the concept of “scientific ideology”.The second chapter is the formation and development of Lenin’s socialist ideology.This chapter mainly consists of four parts,which respectively discuss the historical background,theoretical source,original basis and historical process of the formation of Lenin’s socialist ideology.The third chapter is the main content and basic characteristics of Lenin’s socialist ideology.It mainly consists of two parts: the first part is the main content of Lenin’s socialist ideological thought,which summarizes and expounds the ideological system of Lenin’s socialist ideology,including ideological security thought,ideological leadership thought,ideological class struggle thought,ideology education doctrine.The second part summarizes the basic characteristics of Lenin’s ideological thought,and concludes that his ideological system has significant features that is a combination of criticality and constructiveness,inheritance and innovation,party spirit and class nature,scientific and revolutionary nature.The fourth chapter is the specific practical path of Lenin’s socialist ideology.Based on the scientific theory of Marxist ideology,Lenin realized the gorgeous transformation of socialist ideology into reality.From guiding the national economic,political and cultural construction to enhancing the discourse power of the mainstream ideology,Lenin spared no effort to lead the proletariat into the revolutionary movement and socialist construction.The fifth chapter is the contemporary value of Lenin’s socialist ideology.This chapter includes two parts,that are theoretical contribution and contemporary enlightenment.As the forerunner of socialist ideology,Lenin provided theoretical source and practical experience for the ideological construction of many socialist countries.In terms of theoretical contribution,Lenin clearly affirmed the scientific status of Marxist ideology,created ideological construction under socialist conditions,strengthened the ideological identity of socialist ideology and promoted the popularization of Marxist theory.In the part of contemporary enlightenment,according to the theoretical achievements and practical experience of Lenin’s ideological thought at that time,combined with the risks and challenges faced by China’s current ideological construction,this paper studies and analyzes that China is adhering to the guiding position of Marxism in the ideological field,strengthening the party’s leadership over ideological work,carrying out the critical guidance of pluralistic social thoughts,consolidating the mass foundation for maintaining ideological security,promoting the theoretical innovation of socialist ideology,and reveal the laws of socialist ideology construction.In short,with the continuous infiltration of western values,the impact and collision of various social thoughts and the interweaving of various social contradictions,China’s ideological field is facing a significant impact and profound impact.Today,when the struggle in the ideological field is still sharp and complex,the core views and practical experience of Lenin’s socialist ideological thought still have reference value for China at present.General Secretary Xi Jinping put forward in the nineteen major reports of the party: “We must promote the Sinicization,modernization and popularization of Marxism,build a socialist ideology with strong cohesion and leadership,and unite all the people closely in ideals,beliefs,values and moral concepts.” Ideological construction is related to the national flag,road and political security,and the consolidation of China’s great wall of thought and spirit.In this context,it is particularly important to strengthen the in-depth study of Lenin’s ideological thought,accelerate the theoretical innovation of socialist ideology with Chinese characteristics in the new era,and effectively apply Marxist ideological theory to the development and construction of the new era.
