| Bukharin’s theory of imperialism is an important part of Marxist theory and plays an important role in the history of Marxism.Bukharin’s "World Economy and Imperialism" is the ideological crystallization of his imperialist theory.His personal destiny once made his theory neglected,and people knew more about the imperialist theory created by the great revolutionary mentor Lenin.Guided by the historical materialism of Marxism,based on Bukharin’s personal writings,and in conjunction with historical development and changes in the real system,this article aims to expound the formation and development process of Bukharin’s imperialism theory,its main contents,and its theoretical practical value.According to the principle of the unity of history and logic,this article is divided into three parts in addition to the introduction and conclusion.The first part is the first chapter of this article.This article believes that with the development of monopoly capitalism,the growing contradictions in capitalism and the grave situation in Russia are the social and historical background of Bukharin’s imperialism theory.Marx and Engels’ s relevant expositions on imperialism and the research results of contemporary theorists on imperialism had a profound influence on the formation of Bukharin’s imperialist theory.Taking the publication of the book“World Economy and Imperialism” as a symbol,the formation of Bukharin’s imperialist theory can be roughly divided into two phases: initial formation and continuous development to its maturation.This part is the logical starting point of this article.The second part is the second chapter,which is the core part.This section sorts out and sums up the main contents of Bukharin’s imperialism theory from the three aspects of Bukharin’s connotation,causes,and destinies of imperialism.Bukharin believes that imperialism is a conquering policy for financial capital and a specific historical development stage of capitalism.Bukharin began his study of imperialism by examining the world economy.Due to the formation and further development of the world economy,the two major development trends of the world economic system,capital internationalization and capital nationalization,have intensified the contradictory,and imperialism will inevitably emerge therefrom.They are the impetus for imperialism.With the continuous development of imperialism,the contradictions and struggles around the world are constantly deepening,and imperialism is bound to collapse.Bukharin predicted the future development of imperialism.This part is the middle logical section.The third part is the third chapter.Around the world,the two major systems of socialism and capitalism coexist and compete with each other.After the Second World War,world capitalism experienced a period of relatively long period of peaceful development.This article believes that at the same time as the globalization developed in depth,some anti-globalization phenomena also emerged.Bukharin’s theory of imperialism helps us to understand in depth the new changes and the essence of contemporary capitalism.We must clearly grasp the current development trend of the world economy and help promote the economic development of most developing countries,especially China.We must not only fully understand the basic laws of capitalist development,the nature of the new imperialism and the new features of contemporary capitalism in its development process,but also maintain a vigilant awareness of the new imperialism.We must also keep up with the times and actively participate in the process of globalization to advance the great cause of the liberation of all mankind.This part is the logical end of this article. |
