"七一"讲话与社会分层方法的转型

阶级分析是马克思主义者分析阶级社会的基本方法,它以对立的经济关系为根本依据。在社会主义制度建立后,由于对立的经济关系的消失,阶级划分也就失去了根本依据,故必须实现社会分层方法的转换。但无论斯大林还是毛泽东都坚持阶级分析,并以政治思想标准取代经济标准,这是导致阶级斗争扩大化的方法论原因。江泽民的“七一”讲话采用了阶层分析法,符合我国现实经济关系的新变化,消除了人们对改革开放性质的疑惑,对防止阶级斗争扩大化具有方法论意义。

Jiang Zemin's Speech on July 1 and the Transformation of the Methods of Classifying the Strata of Society

The contradictory economic relationship is the fundamental basis according to which class sta-tuses are determined. After the establishment of the socialist system, the basis according to which classstatuses are determined is lost, and a shift to the classification of the strata of society must be carried out.However, both Stalin and Mao Zedong persisted in class analysis, and replaced economic criteria by thecriteria of political ideology, which was the reason in methodology by which class struggle was magnified.In his "July 1st Speech", Jiang Zemin adopted the method of classifying the strata of society, which is inline with the new changes in the current economic relationship of our country. This has cleared up peo-ple's perplexities over the nature of economic reform and opening to the outside world, and is significantin terms of methodology in preventing the magnification of class struggle.
