New Developments in Historical Dialectics Regarding the Principal Social Contradictions in the New Era
The principal social contradiction in the new era has transformed into"the contradic-tion between the unbalanced and inadequate development and the people's ever-growing needs for a better life".Marx created"historical dialectics"by making materialist changes into Hegel's"con-ceptual dialectics".Historical dialectics reveals the"general principles"of historical development of human society,but Marx did not specifically discuss the laws of socialist construction.The principal social contradiction is a"special principle"of historical dialectics and serves as an"objective criteri-on"for assessing socialist progress.The new contradiction's development in historical dialectics is primarily reflected in three aspects:the transformation of the principal social contradiction is a gradual process from quantitative to qualitative change;the two sides of the principal social contradiction in-clude both"objective terms"and"conditional terms"which are mutually determined in a dialectical unity;and the new contradiction is not complete negation of the old contradiction but a"sublation".
