For a political organization,political issues are fundamental at any time.For a proletarian party,politics plays an extremely important role in people’s interests,the struggle against hostile forces,the acquisition and stabilization of the political power and the leader status of the party.Therefore,the political advancement is a vital and distinctly important part for a proletarian party.During the late nineteenth and early twentieth century,the development of world history has entered the period of imperialism,the contradictions hade been escalating among proletariat and bourgeoisie、imperialist countries and imperialist countries、developed countries and backward countries.Against this background,Lenin Pondered and explored a series of important theoretical and practical questions,such as: How to win the proletarian internationalism in a country that is relatively backward in politics、economy and culture,and how to stabilize the proletarian regime and build socialism after the victory.On the guidance of Marxism and Engels’ s scientific theory,and combining the conditions of the times 、 Russian reality and practical experience,Lenin knew very well that a class or its political party couldn’t maintain its rule if it failed to analyze an issue correctly from a political perspective.Therefore,he attached great importance to the political advancement of the party all the time,and the basic principle of the party’s political advancement ran through the whole process of the Russian revolution and the socialist cause.Lenin raised the question of politics as a “basic principle” from which the Proletarian Party “can not escape” at any time,and promoted it to the height of the proletarian regime,the leading position of the Party and the future of the socialist cause.Based on this understanding,Lenin’s thought on the political advancement of a proletarian party formed during his revolutionary life.Lenin’s political advancement thought of a proletarian party was mainly reflected in four aspects such as the party’s political conviction,political creed and strategy,political leadership and political ecology.The four aspects are interconnected to form a unified whole.First,the political conviction is the guide and foundation of the party’s political advancement.In Lenin’s opinion,the political conviction of a proletarian party is the integration of the people’s position,ideals and conviction as well as the scientific theory.To consolidate the political conviction of the party,it is necessary to take the people as the party’s “political beginning”,and stick to the communist ideas and the guiding role of Marxist theory.Second,the political creed and strategy were the keys to the party’s political advancement.The political creed was the party’s banner and direction,which defines the Party’s political mission.The party’s strategy is the party’s political behavior,it is the political activity which the party takes in order to realize the mission goal of the political program.Lenin emphasized,a party without a political creed was not complete politically.Therefore,it is necessary to formulate the party’s political creed scientifically to strengthen the political advancement of the party.Meanwhile,the political tasks and political behavior of the party should be combined effectively to formulate a correct and flexible strategy to realize the creed goal.Third,the political leadership is the core of the party’s political advancement.Lenin pointed out that the proletarian party is the political leader of the people,he always highlighted that the party led all and was the leader of all during the revolution period and after the establishment of the political power.It is the most critical and core to insist on and enhance the centralized and unified leadership of the central leading body of the party.The leadership capacity does not fall from the sky and was not once for all.Instead,it comes from practice and study.Party members and cadres must strengthen their study to enhance their political leadership capacity and improve political capacity.Fourth,The political ecology is the “outer” presentation of the overall political advancement of the Party.Lenin thought that the stains such as the decayed political culture,bureaucratism and factionalism must be “cleaned” out of the Party timely and completely to create a favorable political ecology.At the same time,the political culture taking the loyalty to the Party as the core should be advocated inside the Party.Both internal and external supervision of the Party should be enhanced.The leading cadres should set a good example for others.The system and decree should be improved,and the political discipline should be abided by strictly.All these efforts are made to achieve a virtuous circle of the political-ecological system inside the Party.Lenin’s thought on the political advancement of a proletarian party is not only the perseverance of the party theory proposed by Marx and Engels but also the new development under the new historical condition.It not only influenced the development progress of Russian politics in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century deeply but also influenced and changed the political landscape of the revolution in the world profoundly.Today,it still has an extremely important value.In the new era,the domestic principal contradiction has changed and the international situation is unpredictable and complicated.In the face of the historical mission to lead the people to build the “great cause” and realize the “great dream”,Chinese Communist Party has proposed the great decision to put the improvement of the political advancement of the Party as the top priority of the “great project” based on the deep self-reflection of the Party.Lenin’s broad and profound thought is a theoretical treasure and an action guide for us to strengthen the party’s political construction in the new era.So,the research on Lenin’s thought on the political advancement of a proletarian party not only can provide theoretical support for the political advancement of Chinese Communist Party but also is of great realistic importance. |
