Basic Dimension,Value Logic and Contemporary Significance of Lenin's Cultural Criticism Thought
Cultural issues occupied an important position in Lenin's entire theoretical and practical career.Especially after the victory of the October Revolution,based on the real problems encountered in socialist practice,Lenin further realised that cultural backwardness and erroneous cultural ideas constituted a deep-seated obstruction and great harm to the construction of socialism.And he realised the importance of and the necessity for strengthening the construction of culture.In his exploration of socialist culture,Lenin made an in-depth and sustained criticism of the revisionist culture represented by the Second International,the nihilist culture represented by the proletarian culturalists,and the deep-rooted religious culture.He pointed out that these ideologies were either distortions of the theoretical substance of Marxism,cultural nihilism,or pessimism about the future of Russian culture.Through the above cultural criticism,Lenin further realised the impor-tance and urgency of seizing and consolidating the right to cultural leadership,and clarified the basic direction and value logic of socialist cultural construction.Socialist culture is a culture of lofty ideals,with the essence of eliminating alienation in the field of culture and achieving liberation in the area of human culture.Today,when the struggle in the field of ideology is becoming more and more normalised,intense and hidden,in-depth reflection on Lenin's socialist cultural construction and his thought of cultural criticism is of great theo-retical value and practical significance.
