A Study of Marxist Methodology

Synopsis

内容简介

Looking back at the history of the Communist Party of China, an important reason why it was able to gradually grow and strengthen from such a weak starting point, to repeatedly rise from desperate situations amid bloody storms, and to continuously advance from victory to victory while overcoming difficulties, is that it adhered to the scientific worldview and methodology of Marxism. This book provides an in-depth theoretical analysis of the main content of important Marxist methodologies, including: concrete analysis of concrete conditions, class analysis, analysis of the basic contradictions of society, analysis of laws, analysis of trends, analysis of links, spatiotemporal analysis, and analysis of seeking truth from facts. It also systematically elaborates on how to apply these methodologies in close connection with China’s actual conditions.

回顾中国共产党的历史，为什么在那么弱小的情况下能够逐步发展壮大起来，在腥风血雨中能够一次次绝境重生，在攻坚克难中能够不断从胜利走向胜利，一个重要原因就是坚持了马克思主义的科学世界观和方法论。本书从学理上深入分析了具体问题具体分析、阶级分析、社会基本矛盾分析、规律分析、趋势分析、环节分析、时空分析、实事求是的分析等马克思主义重要的方法论的主要内容。并且紧密结合中国的实际对这些方法论如何运用做了系统阐述。
