Study On The Early Exploration Of The Chinese Path By The Chinese Communist Party’s Work-study Group In France

At the beginning of the 20 th century,China faced complex and chaotic domestic and international situations.The fundamental question at that era was where the country could find a way out.In order to seek a way forward,the New Culture Movement emerged,which awakened the Chinese youth and led them to grow into a new generation with the mission of saving the country and exploring a path for China.The Chinese Communist Party’s work-study group in France was among them.In order to explore a path for China,they chose to study and work frugally in France.This choice was the result of multiple factors.First,they sought to overcome the difficulties in pursuing education and finding employment and explore their own path.Second,they linked their personal destiny with that of the nation,seeking a way to save the country and the people.During their stay in France,the Chinese Communist Party’s work-study group in France engaged in a dual exploration of the Chinese path.On a theoretical level,they explored the following four aspects: 1)debating methods for saving the country and engaging in debates with anarchism and work-study programs;2)studying and researching Marxist theory;3)exploring China’s revolutionary path in its early stages;and 4)engaging in debates with nationalists.On a practical level,the group delved deep into the heart of capitalism,examining the factories,workers’ movements,education,and society of capitalist countries.They also established early overseas organizations for the Chinese Communist Party.The early exploration of the Chinese path by this group exhibited certain characteristics,including the practical nature of the exploration process,the gradual and tortuous nature of the exploration path,and the repeated comparisons made during the exploration.After undergoing dual explorations of theory and practice,the group ultimately chose Marxism and the socialist path under the leadership of the Chinese Communist PartyThe early exploration of the Chinese path by the Chinese Communist Party’s work-study group in France was a great practical endeavor of modern Chinese youth,which laid the foundation for future explorations of the Chinese path and had a profound impact.The Chinese Communist Party’s work-study group in France displayed many qualities and spirits during their time in France,which served as an example for contemporary Chinese youth and continue to inspire them to strive for the construction of the Chinese path to modernization.
