A Study Of The CPC Understanding Of Social Principal Contradiction Since The Eighth National Congress Of The CPC

Correct understanding of the main social contradictions is the theoretical basis and main basis for the CPC to determine the main tasks for a certain period of time,and is a major issue related to socialist modernization.Since the Eighth Congress of the Party,the Party's understanding of the main contradictions in our society has gone through twists and turns,and finally returned to the right track.Among them,there are both lessons that can be learned and lessons that are thought-provoking.Studying the course of the CPC's understanding of the main social contradictions and drawing nourishment from it is of great significance for grasping the basic national conditions of China in the new era,recognizing the main social contradictions in the new era,implementing Xi Jinping's socialist thought with Chinese characteristics in the new era,realizing the goal of "two hundred years" and building a strong socialist modernization country.The paper is divided into six parts,including the introduction and five chapters of the body.The introduction mainly discusses the background and significance of the topic,the current research situation and research methods,the innovation and difficulties of the research.The first chapter discusses the understanding of the main social contradictions at the Eighth National Congress of the Party.The resolution adopted by the Eighth National Congress clearly addresses the major contradictions in Chinese society.Since we have eliminated the system of exploitation and established the socialist system,the contradiction between the proletariat and the bourgeoisie is no longer the main contradiction in our society."The main contradiction in our country is the contradiction between the people's demand for the establishment of an advanced industrial country and the reality of a backward agricultural country.It is also the contradiction between the people's need for rapid economic and cultural development and the current situation in which the economy and culture can not meet the needs of the people." This understanding has been proved to be correct by historical tests and is in line with China's national conditions.It is of great significance to explore China's own road to socialist construction.The second chapter discusses the Party's understanding of the main social contradictions from the Eighth Congress to the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee.The expansion of the Anti-Rightist struggle has shaken the Party's understanding of the main contradictions in society,and the Party has made too serious an assessment of the international and domestic situation.In May 1958,the Second Session of the Eighth National Congress of the Communist Party of China declared: "Before the establishment of a socialist society,the struggle between the proletariat and the bourgeoisie,the struggle between the socialist road and the capitalist road,has always been the main contradiction within our country." This shows that on the main contradictions in domestic society,the Party's understanding has changed greatly and it has been replaced by the struggle of "two classes and two paths".Since then,the errors of the expansion of class struggle have continued to develop,and a relatively complete theoretical system has been formed,resulting in the bitter consequences of the "Cultural Revolution".Chapter three discusses the Party's understanding of the main social contradictions from the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee to the 19 th National Congress.The Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee has completed the correction of "Left" deviation errors,opened a new process of reform and opening up,and shifted the focus of the Party's work to socialist modernization.Since then,the Party has begun to correct the "Left" mistakes in an all-round and earnest manner,laying a good foundation for the correct understanding of the main contradictions in socialist society and the socialist modernization drive.The Sixth Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee pointed out that the main contradiction in our society is "the contradiction between people's growing material and cultural needs and backward social production".From the Twelfth to the Eighteenth National Congresses of the CPC,the Party continued to adhere to the judgment of the Sixth Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee on the main contradictions in society and to guide the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics to develop continuously.Chapter IV discusses the new judgment of the Nineteenth National Congress of the Party on the main social contradictions.Under the leadership of the Party,the people of all nationalities throughout the country have made unremitting efforts to promote socialist modernization.Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era,and the main contradictions in our society have been transformed into the contradiction between the people's growing need for a better life and the unbalanced and inadequate development.The fifth chapter discusses the experience,lessons and Enlightenment of the Party's understanding of the main social contradictions since the Eighth National Congress.Summarizing the course of the Party's understanding of the main social contradictions,we can draw four lessons from it: we must correctly judge the development stage of our society;we must correctly analyze the international and domestic situation;we must correctly deal with the class struggle in a certain range;and we must adhere to the principle of democratic centralism.At the same time,it enlightens us that we should grasp the law of movement of social basic contradictions,adhere to the ideological line of seeking truth from facts,and adhere to Marxist contradiction theory.Only in this way can the Party correctly understand the main social contradictions and promote the continuous development of socialist construction.
