The Social Theory of New Democracy and the New Realm of Sinicized Marxism:An Interpretation of MAO Zedong's"On New Democracy"
MAO Zedong's elucidation of the social theory of New Democracy in"On New Democracy"represents the amalgamation of the fundamental principles of dialectical materialism with the concrete realities of Chinese society at the time.His assertion that economics forms the base while politics is the concentrated expression of economics demonstrates the manifestation of dialectical materialism within the specific context of China.Starting from the specificity of the Chinese New Democratic stage,MAO provides interpretations of the political,economic,and cultural forms of New Democracy,which not only point the way forward for the development of New Democratic society but also hold significant positions in the history of Marxist social theory due to their theoretical innovation.
