Ellen Meiksins Wood is a professor of political science at York University in Toronto,Canada.Wood is a staunch Marxist,and as an important exponent of Western Marxism,her study of political thought is her academic focus.The development of world socialism in the 20 th century,whether it was the first practice,the downturn,or the triumphant march,could not be separated from the degree of grasp of the essential relationship between capitalism and socialism.Wood has focused on the relationship between the two and devoted his life to the critique of capitalism and the pursuit of the socialist cause.All writings embody the independence of thought and the logical ability to relate to historical contexts.Through Wood’s critique of capitalism,we can see the peculiarities of capitalist society,the need for a more firm class struggle,and only under the premise of a full grasp of the essence of capitalist society can we clearly depict the real ideal society,that is,Marx’s socialist society.Wood’s socialist thought is produced in a special context,her socialist thought is by no means an empty talk about society,she explores the core position of the working class in social reform from the relationship between class and politics,at the same time Wood also pointed out that the exploration of socialism is inseparable from the grasp of the essence of capitalism,only by recognizing the nature of its exploitation,to achieve political and economic unity can achieve true democracy,and real democracy is the goal and essence of socialism.Wood’s formulation of the socialist plan explores not only the goals,but also the implementers and strategies for the implementation of the socialist goals,and she believes that socialism can meet the needs of people’s freedom and equality.Wood of socialism is to explore in a big joint under the background of the world,globalization is a double-edged sword bring development opportunities to the socialist countries,and the risks and challenges,setbacks in the cause of socialism,under this background the rise of new social movement waves,these factors on the reality wood the theory into the accelerator.In short,this article adheres to the Marxist point of view to sort out Wood’s socialist thought,feels Wood’s perseverance in the complex situation,and relies on his sensitive insight to not follow the tide in the context of globalization.Therefore,we should also know ourselves and each other,persist in practicing and developing Marxism,and we must concretely integrate theory with the reality of social development and revolutionary practice,seize the opportunity,and grasp the initiative in the pattern of world development.
