    This book is a selection of the most crucial papers of a Chinese expert on Japanese studies. The papers cover many topics involving politics, economy, culture, diplomacy and other aspects. It has a high academic value. Researcher Wu Yin, the author, has been devoted to the study of Japanese issues for a long time, from the early study of the history of China-Japan relations to the later study of contemporary Japanese international relations. Her study covers the China-Japan relations in various historical periods and involves various fields of contemporary Japanese political culture. Her discussion from the perspectives of "Emperor politics" (Tennō) and "concept of family-country" (kazoku kokka) can be regarded as the key to Japan's political culture. However, the proposition of the view of "equal imbalance" in today's China-Japan relations is of great enlightening significance to people's deep understanding of the essence of China-Japan relations under the cover of various complicated appearances. There are many similar highlights in the manuscript, so I will not list them. I believe that with one volume in hand, readers will be able to understand the context of China-Japan relations. It is worth noting that the manuscript is not only academic but also highly readable due to the author's fluent writing. It is not only of reference value to professional Japanese researchers, but also suitable for general readers to read. In addition, in the interview record of a Japanese researcher's path, the author deeply reviewed the footprints of his own academic path, in which the spirit of academic research revealed can also give the later generations of scholars extraordinary incentives.

  • - The Political Economy of Chinese Television Advertising
    af Zixu Liu
    223,95 kr.

    In this well-written and engaging book, the author begins with a meticulous investigation of the basic facts of the television advertising industry in China: its institutional lay out, content, and audience. The author Liu Zixu, the deputy editorial director of International Critical Thought, from a Marxian viewpoint and sharp critical eyes, draws upon the distinction made in Chinese television advertising between the working class and what could be called the “watching class,” and suggests that the advertising in contemporary China is fundamentally an ideological apparatus, which educates not only for new life styles but also for a new social order. For that reason, it must be treated as an act of the political—a concept that has not been clearly defined in the existing literature of political economy of communication. The author has carefully reviewed numerous scholarly works both from China and West, when developing his analyses. Shifting the focus towards the very existence of advertising, Liu Zixu discusses the political and ideological conditions and background that have made advertising possible in contemporary China, and look at advertising as a field of ideological and political contention in which socialism and capitalism are in constant struggles. In fact, what the products of the Chinese television advertising industry reveals is the process in which a socialist system hosts capitalism and by so doing becomes its hostage, and in which critical intervention becomes necessary in order to bring socialist relations of production back to the discussion. Liu Zixu, suggests: in this sense, the banal and self-deceptive critique of China’s “communist” authoritarianism as suggested by some domestic and foreign studies doesn’t hold water, while in the meantime we must be cautious about the critique of China’s capitalism, which easily misses the struggles against capitalism by various political forces in China at the state, collective and individual level.

  • - Research by Chinese and Japanese Scholars

    The China-Japan Association for the Promotion of Journalism in Beijing has initiated, arranged and presided over the compilation of this book.The year 2012 marked the 40th anniversary of the normalization of diplomatic relations between China and Japan. The China-Japan relations should have been further deepened in this memorable year. However, Japan's unlawful "purchase" of the Diaoyu Islands and "nationalization" of the Diaoyu Islands severely infringes upon China's territorial sovereignty and greatly hurt the Chinese people's feelings, which has resulted in the unprecedented grim situation of China-Japan relations. Moreover, far-sighted people from the two countries have been more and more anxious about this issue.As we all know, the Diaoyu Island and its affiliated islands have been China's sacred territory since ancient times. This is supported by historical facts and jurisprudential evidence. The Diaoyu Islands were first discovered, named and exploited by the Chinese people. Since the Ming Dynasty, the Diaoyu Islands have been put under the jurisdiction of China's naval defense. The waters surrounding Diaoyu Island are traditionally Chinese fishing ground. Although the Diaoyu Island and its affiliated islands are uninhabited, they have never been "terra nullius". China is the indisputable owner of the Diaoyu Islands.As an inherent territory of China, the Diaoyu Islands shouldn't be a problem. Japan's illegal seizure and occupation of the Diaoyu islands in 1895 has caused the current dispute. During the Sino-Japanese War, taking advantage of the Qing government's undoubted failure, Japan incorporated the islands under the administration of Okinawa secretly. Then, Japan seized the islands for a long term by signing of the Treaty of Shimonoseki. After the end of World Anti-Fascist War, Japan surrendered unconditionally and accepted the Potsdam Declaration that determined that all territories, including the Diaoyu Islands, occupied by Japan during its invasion of China be returned to China. However, the US and Japan had underhand secret dealings. In December, 1953, the US Civil Administration of the Ryukyu Islands expanded its jurisdiction to the Diaoyu Islands without any form of jurisprudential justification. On June 17th, 1971, Japan and the United States signed Okinawa Reversion Agreement in order to hand over Okinawa to Japan, and the Diaoyu Islands were mapped into the handover area. Chinese government solemnly declared that such a move was flagrant, totally illegal and invalid; it couldn't change China's territorial sovereignty over the Diaoyu Island and its affiliated islands.

    493,95 kr.

    This book is a meticulous work by renowned scholar, Liu Yingsheng who has spent years in the research of history of the Silk Road. The book consists of two parts as: the land Silk Road and the maritime Silk Road, which includes 14 chapters, totally. With the following words Liu Yingsheng offers a clear view of communications among civilizations when studying the history of the Silk Road: “Civilization centers of the world have both developed separately and connected with each other directly and indirectly. A number of ancient human communities are dotted among the aforesaid civilization centers and linked with each other like a chain. Geographically speaking, China was an isolated territory in Eurasia. But ancient Chinese knew that there were brilliant cultures in the remote West. The fairy tale on Xiwangmu (Queen Mother of the West) reflects ancient Chinese people’s desire to other civilizations. Hence, despite of the remoteness and distance, humankind had travelled an arduous and long way for communications. Nomadic peoples living in the Eurasia Steppes had maintained a natural economic and cultural link with their neighboring Southern agricultural peoples, and meanwhile, relying on their fast steeds, played as a liaison the for East-West civilization communications for several thousand years.”In this book, Liu Yingsheng has reviewed the original valuable historical materials preserved, in China, also those historical materials written by close neighbours of China in the old history, like Hui, Uyghur, Mongols, Arabs, Persia and utilized many other researches made by Western scholars. The book includes, more than 1,400 direct and indirect references given by world famous scholars. 

  • - Conception of Political Thought Trends and Their Regularities
    af Bingquan Wang
    333,95 kr.

    The book is authored by Wang Bingquan, one of the most renown scholars specialized in the research of political thought trends, he gave a meticulous energy to understand the development laws of political thought trends and make breakthroughs in this area. Men are in interaction with all kinds of political thought trends, how they emerge, develop, transform, vanish and re-emerge in a different historical era, how they embrace and mobilize millions for certain goals, is a vast scientific question. The book investigates this question from a Marxist view and methodology, besides other convenient methods of research. The first part of the book deals to build a systematic conception to answer this question. The second part of the book, investigates into the 3 major political thought trends which most vigorously affect contemporary China: nationalism, civil society, universal values. Wang Bingquan argues that these 3 trends represent a positive effect upon the spiritual production of Chinese people. With the deepening of reform and opening up and the socialist market economy, China's economic and social structures, patterns of employment and interest relations and distribution mode have become more and more diversified. And the spiritual life of people has become more complex, and the differentiation and diversity between various social consciousness forms have become more obvious, which to a large extent demonstrated by various political thought trends. In China the leading party reproduces and innovates the dominant ideology of socialist core values to support the social system and to achieve a healthy progress towards a comprehensively prosperous socialism. Numerous political trends, have complex relations with the dominant ideology, thus the catchword “guiding social thought trends with socialist core values” is the task and  ”showing tolerance and respect for differences and diversity” is the dealing principle set by the leading party to enable a benign atmosphere in the ideological field. The conclusion part of the book discusses the issues of “guiding social thought trends with socialist core values.” We hope the readers will find abundant thought provoking material and information in this book.

  • - A Historical and Realistic Analysis

    As for the main contents and opinions, this monograph has formed a relatively reasonable structure and frame of Stalin’s socialism thought studies.Firstly, in the beginning chapter of this book, the development of Stalin’s thought on socialism was divided into four stages according to great historical events and the evolution of Stalin’s socialism thought. The first stage is the 20 years before the October Revolution, during which Stalin as a professional revolutionary, had researched on and thought about the theories of Russian proletarian revolution and Marxism. Although at this stage, the socialism thought had not been really formed, his basic values on Marxist that were formed in this stage had an important influence on the formation and development of his socialism thought later. The second stage is from the victory of the October Revolution to the year of 1924 when Lenin died and Stalin became the leader of both the party and the nation of Soviet Union, which is the period of tentative exploration of Stalin’s socialism thought. The third stage is from 1924 to 1936 when Stalin announced that he had completed the socialist transformation and the Soviet Union had entered into the era of socialist society. This is the stage that Stalin’s socialism thought wasformed. The fourth stage is from 1936 to 1953 when Stalin died, which is also the period when the Soviet Union went through the Second World War and the post-war reconstruction. This is the developing stage of Stalin’s socialism thought. The latter two stages are the main periods for the evolution of Stalin’s socialism thought, which are also the focal point of the study in this book.Secondly, on the basis of generally summarizing Stalin’s socialism thought, in the second and third chapters, this book has made a special effort to study on the philosophy grounds of Stalin’s socialism thought and his general idea of socialism. Stalin’s philosophic thinking is an important part of Stalin’s socialism thought and the grounds of its world view and methodology. Understanding of Stalin’s philosophic thinking and his general idea of socialism should be the logical starting point of the study on Stalin’s socialism thought.Furthermore, in this book, the study of Stalin’s socialism thought has mainly focused on his though of the economic, political and cultural development. With an emphasis on the mode and system of socialist economy, plan and market, economic growth and development, political system, class and class struggle, construction of the party, development of nations, cultural education and ideology, this book has drafted the basic contents and the main features of Stalin’s socialism thought, which are also the contents from Chapter 4 to Chapter 11, the main part of this book.Lastly, this book has also spent some effortsabout Stalin’s theories on the relations between the world economy and politics, international communist movements and practice, which are the contents of Chapter 12 and 13.It has to be pointed out that Stalin’s socialist thought is part of the study of Stalin’s thought, even the most important part, but it does not cover all. As a result, other Stalin’s important thoughts are not included in the final product of this study.For the further academic research, the last two appendixes are the comments on the studies on Stalin’s thought (mainly his socialism thought) done by scholars both home and abroad.

    The book in your hands, the fourth part of the "International Relations Volumes" series probes into the analysis of the relations between North and South since the formation of this division. The North-South relationship as one product of North-South division is not only the product of contemporary world society, but also a product of relatively gradual historical course closely related with European colonial expansion. The book categorizes European metropolitan states, including the US and Japan, into the scope of the North, while refer to those Asian, African and Latin American colonies and semi-colonies as the South, preferring the terminology and conception of Humanities instead of Economics. Scholars home and abroad understand colonial expansion and the formation and development of the North-South relationship basically in the same way. That is, the world was composed of regions far apart which tended to develop their economies independently till the 16th century. But it was since this period that Europeans cleared away territorial borders, broke through geographical barriers, and unite Asia, Africa, Latin America, some of the Pacific islands, and European countries into a whole by means of their advanced navigation technology, ever-increasing military power, economic power which took shape in this period, and colonial expansion throughout the world. As a result, the former mutually divided world was transformed into a world system dominated by Europe (including the U.S. after the WW II). Scholars home and abroad, however, differ in their view on the formation and development of the North-South relationship within this system. Researchers in Europe and the U.S., from the classical economists in the 19th century to contemporary scholars, believe there exists a mutually beneficial relationship, especially in the economic field, between countries and regions of "the North" which are in the core and their counterparts of "the South" in the periphery within the world system because an open world market benefits both parties. In order to fully discuss and elaborate on colonial expansion and the course of the North-South relationship, we have made new explorations into the style and structure of the whole book. The whole book is divided into two parts. The first part covers chapter I to chapter IV and the second part from chapter V to chapter IX.Part I of the book mainly includes an overall and theoretical description of the process of colonial expansion before the WWII and the development of the North-South relationship. It points out that since the 15th and 16th century with the development of capitalism in Western Europe and the great geographical discovery, colonial expansion has become an important instrument of primitive accumulation of capital by numerous colonial countries of the North, while coercing these countries and regions into an asymmetrical world political and economic system.Part II of the book discusses systematically the development of the North-South relationship after the WW II by tracing the postwar development of international relations. After a relatively clear exposition on some major events and key points in the development process of the North-South relationship, it points out the postwar North-South relationship has undergone a process of dialogue, confrontation, and co-operation and the South-South co-operation after the war plays an increasingly important role in contemporary international relations.

    Die Frage der Menschenrechte zählt zu denjenigen Fragen, die in weiten Teilen der heutigen Welt Beachtung finden. Es ist auch ein wichtiges Problem beim Modernisierungs-Projekt Chinas und in seinen Außenbeziehungen. Die vollen Menschenrechte zu genießen ist ein hohes Ideal, das die Menschheit seit langem verfolgt. Auch das chinesische Volk streitet unbeirrt für dieses hehre Ziel: In einem gewissen Sinne dienten die chinesische Revolution, Aufbau, Reform und Entwicklung gerade dazu, die Menschenrechte des gesamten Landesvolkes zu erstreiten und zu verwirklichen.Im 20. Jahrhundert erwachte das chinesische Volk aus einem Abgrund des Leidens. Es war ein Jahrhundert des Widerstandes und der Erhebung, aber auch eines, in dem das chinesische Volk harte Prüfungen durchlebt und sein Leben sich tiefgreifend gewandelt hat. Unter der Führung der Kommunistischen Partei Chinas wurde 1949 nach einem bitteren und unbesiegten Kampf endlich der Druck der „drei großen Berge" von Imperialismus, Feudalismus und bürokratischem Kapitalismus abgeworfen und die Volksrepublik China gegründet, somit staatliche Unabhängigkeit und die Befreiung der Völker verwirklicht. Wir führten nun unseren eigenen Haushalt und bestimmten unser Schicksal. Die Geburt der Volksrepublik China war ein Ereignis von enormer Bedeutung für die Weltgeschichte des 20. Jahrhunderts. Sie signalisierte für das chinesische Volk, also ein Viertel der Weltbevölkerung, das Ende einer jahrtausendelangen Geschichte von feudalistischer Unterdrückung und imperialistischer Versklavung; nun war es auf der Welt wirklich aufgestanden. Das war nicht nur ein wichtiger Meilenstein für die Entwicklung der Menschenrechte in China, sondern auch eine beachtliche Leistung für die Entwicklung der Menschenrechte auf der ganzen Welt.Seit 60 Jahren haben Chinas Kommunistische Partei, die chinesische Regierung und das chinesische Volk sich in einer harten und mühevollen Erkundung unermüdlich dafür angestrengt, die Menschenrechte voranzutreiben und zu sichern. Beginnend mit der Geburt der neuen Gesellschaft hat China weltweit anerkannte, riesige Fortschritte gemacht, und das Leben des chinesischen Volkes hat sich bis zur Unkenntlichkeit verändert. Durch 60 Jahre währende Mühen ist das schwache, arme und erniedrigte China zu einer blühenden Weltmacht geworden, die viel für Frieden und Entwicklung auf der Welt geleistet hat. Das materielle Leben der 1,3 Milliarden Chinesen hat sich enorm verbessert; sie sind bitterer Armut und Unwissenheit entkommen und führen nun ein zivilisiertes, gesundes Leben, in dem ihre Grundbedürfnisse erfüllt sind. Dabei genießen sie Freiheit und Menschenrechte in zuvor ungekanntem Maße. Gegenwärtig befindet sich China in jener entscheidenden Phase, in der die Gesellschaft des „bescheidenen Wohlstandes" umfassend aufgebaut und die sozialistische Modernisierung beschleunigt vorangetrieben wird. Die Lehren zusammenzufassen, die Chinas Regierung und Volk in den 60 Jahren seit der Gründung des neuen Chinas aus ihren Erfahrungen mit der Wahrung und Förderung der Menschenrechte gezogen haben, und die Entwicklung der Menschenrechtsbemühungen zu fördern, hat eine enorme und reale Bedeutung für den umfassenden Aufbau der Gesellschaft des „bescheidenen Wohlstandes", den beschleunigten Aufbau der sozialistischen Modernisierung, den Antrieb des wissenschaftlichen Fortschritts und die Förderung der gesellschaftlichen Harmonie.Unser Ziel bei der Herausgabe von „60 Jahre Aufbau der Menschenrechte in China" liegt darin, den glorreichen Weg Revue passieren zu lassen, den Chinas P

We have started our publishing plan with the volume “The History of Western Alliance After the World War II-1945-2005” and the “International Relations Volumes” include 8 books.The reason to begin the International Relations Volumes with the “Western alliance” is because the author suggests that the world, its order and structure in the Post-War period (WW II) were maintained by various alliance systems. And during this era, the post-War Western alliance has been the most central and complete reflection of the relations between Western countries.All the aspects of international relationships are included in the book. The content of the book mainly concentrates on the issues of strategy, security, politics and economy which affect the overall relationship status among the Western powers. Based on a thorough analysis and research on the Western alliance, the book attempts to reveal the basic factors influencing the relationship between major developed countries and points out to those “lasting characteristics” “variations” “similarities” and “particularities” with special attention given to those factors more directly related with the overall situation.

    This meticulous book is authored by Tang Zhichao, a renowned expert on the Kurdish issue, who has been passionately studying the issue for more than 15 years—currently, director at the Chinese think-tank, the Institute of West Asian and African Studies attached to the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. The Kurdish issue is one of the most complex, tragic issues of the current world, and of the Middle East, which still remains unresolved. Kurds are the only stateless nation in the region, longing for independence and political freedom. They have suffered greatly from colonialism, from pan-nationalisms, faced with betrayals and the self-centeredness of world’s big powers since the WWI. The book studies the Kurdish issue in each 4 country separately and focuses on the issues most central to explain and grasp, why the Kurdish issue is not resolved for nearly a century. Tang Zhichao underlines the long course that Kurdish national movement needs to consummate before an ultimate favorable solution can be achieved. This is mainly due to external interventions and uncertainties, surrounding the issue: “although the Kurds have not yet fully controlled their own destiny, their capacity to control their fate is is growing gradually and there exists great possibility for them to do so. However, for achieving their long-cherished national aspirations, Kurds do not only need to develop and expand their own strengths, their achievements will also depend on the progress of modernization, democratization and policy adjustments of the relevant countries in the region, the changes in the international and regional patterns, as well as the Kurds’ relations with the outside world.”

    The high-level Office for The Marxist Theory Research and Construction Project pays meticulous and consistent efforts to prepare all kinds of cognitive learning materials, which will reflect and expound on the brand new academic achievements attained in the study of Chinese Marxism. Among them, the textbook "Mao Zedong Thought and The Theoretical System of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics," has been a unique work which has been highly praised by readers from all walks of people, promising young people including college students. By courtesy of the ministry of education, colleges and universities across the country have made great contributions and achievements in transforming the rich contents of the theoretical system of socialism with Chinese characteristics into teaching materials, a part of which can be utilized in schools. This book—The Basics of the Theoretical System of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics—we present to readers, was prepared by the most prominent scholars of the subject from the Marxism School of the Renmin University of China especially designed for college students.Throughout the writing and editing of this book, we have both enjoyed the advantage of certain comprehension basis, and a certain degree of difficulty, certain comprehension basis as an advantage, firstly because we had already edited the "Introduction to Deng Xiaoping Theory", "Introduction to the Important Thought of Three Represents", since their publication in 2003, the titles were re-published for dozens of times, and the aggregate print of them has nearly reached 3 million, most of which have reached the readers. Secondly, the writers of this textbook are all in the front line of teaching and research, they have a certain degree of research accretion on the theoretical system of socialism with Chinese characteristics and have abundant teaching experience on the subject. Thirdly, the academic community has made abundant research on “Deng Xiaoping Theory”, and on the “Important Thought of Three Represents” and also on “The Scientific Concept of Development” and other major strategic thoughts, which are component parts of the theoretical system of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and have produced numerous precious research results. These above favorable conditions have laid a virtuous foundation in the writing and editing of this book.We have faced certain degree of difficulty, firstly because the theoretical system of socialism with Chinese characteristics still encounters enrichment and perfection. The academic circles have different understandings of its theme, its historical starting point, main content and the logical structure of this theoretical system. There still exist differences in the understanding and interpretation of many major issues regarding it. Secondly, we have encountered a considerable difficulties, as in the following, how to break through the previous framework of Deng Xiaoping Theory and unify the three strategic thoughts of—Deng Xiaoping Theory, Important Thought of Three Represents, and The Scientific Concept of Development—and integrate them into one and same book, because all the three not only represent major theoretical achievements having their own unique characteristics, but also have succession and development relations among them, besides they follow the same strain and have included successive times characteristics.

    This book mainly reads the three works of early Baudrillard, and challenges the current research findings on his philosophical journey. Zhang Yibing also reads Baudrillard''s other works to fully situate him theoretically. He asserts that Baudrillard''s texts cannot be classified as postmodernist or neo-Marxist in any period. Zhang belongs to the third generation of Marxist philosophers in China and is renowned for his textological researches, having developed a unique reading methodology. Since the end of 1960s, Baudrillard wrote three important works: For a Critique of Political Economy of the Sign, The Mirror of Production and Symbolic Exchange and Death, which furiously attacked Marx, aiming to refute historical materialism and deconstruct Marx''s theory of labour value. The Mirror of Production in particular was intended to demolish the logic of Marxist theories from within, by deconstructing and disordering them. This was ignored by many Marxist researchers. What was real thinking behind, and historical context of, the shift in his critique, and how was symbolic exchange combined with death? The author with his sharp insight shows that the Early Baudrillard''s thought is trapped in the logic of symbolic exchange, based on the grassroots'' romanticism (radicalism) of Mauss-Bataille. He then keenly follows the secret of Baudrillard''s transformation process in his critical logic, his passage from the dissolution of the ideographic material to the symbolic value of coding structure, then to quasi-real existence without a model, until finally his symbolic miscoding of death becomes a hopeless waiting for Baudrillard''s tentative salvation of the world. This is indeed a death trilogy, which occurs in Baudrillard''s academic scenery and in which the real existence is murdered. The thinking of late Baudrillard is a discourse like virus and paranoia. This kind of logical violence of theoretical terrorism has become an absurd modern academic caricature of excessive rational interpretation. In this book the reader will also find Zhang''s innovative interpretation and updating of Marx''s historical materialism.

    In mainland China, in the recent decades, once discarded Western Marxism studies have reached a peak. To study humanism, alienation, subjectivity and practical materialism, epistemology and aesthetics, interchange and social ontology as well as cultural philosophy, existential philosophy, philosophy of daily life, has entered into the scope. Wang Nanshi and Xie Yongkang, in this book on practical materialism, have succeeded a comprehensive study to reflect the major aspects and theoretical bases of this philosophy. Marxist philosophical theoretical research had not been so successful for some time. This has been fairly evaluated and investigated in this book to open a new scope, revealing the past theoretical regress. On the one shore was dialectical and historical materialism theory of Marxist philosophy propagated in college text books which was scientist, and naturalist and on the other shore was critical historical materialism of Young Lukacs and Korsch, which put the subject- proletarian practice in the center, to solve the problem of unity between subject and object isomorphic with the unity of nature and history. The issue put by the former was the existence of general principles applicable to both spheres. The latter had centered the issue on the existence of natural being opposite to social history. Lukacs'' gave a negative answer to these two issues. As to history, general principles would be abstract and Lukacs had viewed the nature as a "socio-historical category". Although both schools led their own journey, both had failed to grasp the real essence of Marx''s philosophical theories on materialism, metaphysics, dialectic and complex human practice. The essence of the philosophical revolution achieved by Marx, which makes him an outstanding modern philosopher, was his practical materialist theory and his view on the relation between practice and theory. Readers will surely find a thought provoking debate and vision in the book.CONTENT OF MAIN PARTSTHEORETICAL PHILOSOPHY AND PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHYConceptual Study of Theory and Practice Differentiation and Evolution of Theoretical Philosophy andPractical Philosophy Marx''s Philosophy Is a Modern Practical PhilosophyMATERIALISM AND MODERN MATERIALISMGeneral Meaning and History of MaterialismPractice and Marx''s Modern MaterialismModern Materialism is Historical MaterialismDIALECTIC AS PRACTICAL WISDOMConcept and History of DialecticMarxist Practical DialecticPICTURE OF THE LIFE-WORLD OF FINITE SUBJECTMarx''s Two Propositions about ManMaterial World and Human ActivitySocial Life and Human EssencePRACTICE ANd HUMAN KNOWLEDGEEpistemological Issues and Their Way outQuasi-Epistemological View of TruthHISTORY AND HUMAN IDEALContradictoriness of Human ExistenceHistory and IdealLooking into Marx''s Realm of Ideal from the Angle of Real History

    This book is from Chinese academy, which studies the most delicate subject of politics -party theory-; rarely studied as part of the academy. Marxist parties pursuing power for a new society have a long history since 1847 and have encountered many changes since then. Today, the societal and political conditions in some regions have radically changed presenting new challenges for Marxist parties. Inner-party or extra-party coalitions with progressive left-wing forces are full in debate and this imposes them new trials. And, as the argument on the disintegration of proletariat spreads wider Marx''s emphasis: "education of the educators" again poses an urgency and adds to the topicality of Marxist party building theories. After radical changes in Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, it has been proved true that the Marxist party is a key link in building the desired socialist society-the emancipation of the proletariat and humans transcending capitalist society-. Often, many defects of post-capitalist societies were attributed to ruling Marxist parties, their rigid structures, bureaucratization, over-centralization and false interpretation of Marx''s relevant ideas , after him . Grave policy mistakes or loss of belief were also considered as part of structural degeneration and distorted class links. This book offers a realistic approach to the problems in the history of Marxist parties; the historical development of ideas on Marxist party. The book was written by scholars from Renmin University-China, debating problems with their societal and historical environment ; suggesting courageous trials, innovations, institutionalization, transparency,inner-party democracy, empowerment of members and supervision from outside the Marxist party. And the book is unique as it studies the concept of the ruling Marxist party more comprehensively,and delves into the less debated parts of the party building theory: party''s work style and ideological line concepts.
