As one of the founders of Marxism,Engels made great contributions to the establishment,growth and development of the proletarian party in both practice and theory.Engels'proletarian party construction thought mainly comes from the bourgeois party construction thought since modern times,including Marx's the utopian socialist party construction and the proletarian party construction thoughts.Engels stressed that it is necessary to formulate and improve a comprehensive and extensive program of action,and to uphold and defend Marxism through criticizing erroneous trends of thought.The construction of proletarian party must forge a strong leading core,strengthen intra-party supervision,strictly enforce party discipline,and adhere to democratic centralism to enhance party cohesion,keep close contact with the people,carry out criticism and self-criticism,and pay attention to the construction of style of work.Exploring Engels'thoughts on the construction of proletarian political parties is of great significance to continuously opening up a new realm of the Sinicization and modernization of Marxism,strengthening the overall consciousness of the Communist Party of China,enhancing its ability to struggle,coordinating the social revolution,and leading the people of the whole country to continuously promote the great construction and project of socialism in the new era.
