In the 30s of the 20th century, the famous Marxist philosopher Aischi (1910-1966) wrote a popular "Popular Philosophy" (originally titled "Philosophical Speeches"). The book closely follows the pulse of the times and closely links with China's reality, and expresses the basic principles of Marxist philosophy in a vivid and lively form, in simple and simple brushwork, and in a language close to the public, in a popular and vivid manner. Popular Philosophy was like a beacon that enlightened thousands of people to embark on the revolutionary road led by the Communist Party of China. Fast forward to more than 80 years since the publication of Popular Philosophy. Eighty years is only a short moment in human history, but the people living in this era have experienced great changes! People can truly feel that science and technology are developing with each passing day, the tide of globalization and informationization is surging, the working class and the socialist movement are overwhelming, the internal contradictions of contemporary capitalism are intensifying and evolving, the practice of socialism with Chinese characteristics is changing with each passing day, and people's lives are "new every day." Remarkable changes in historical times and social practice call for new philosophical thinking. Making a worldview and methodological solution to reality in the way of the "popular philosophy" of the year, and writing a "new popular philosophy" that suits the times, is not only Aischi's unfulfilled long-cherished wish, but also the new needs of practice, the new expectations of the people, and the new requirements of the party and the country. In compiling "New Popular Philosophy" today, we should strive to accurately judge and reflect the new changes of the times and carry out the analysis of new philosophies. Looking at the overall course of human historical development, our era is a historical era in which capitalism is gradually dying and socialism is gradually moving towards victory. Although the classic writers of Marxism have long sounded the death knell of capitalism, the end of the old system is a long historical process. Looking at today's world, through the continuous struggle of the working class and the working masses, capitalism is no longer so openly engaged in war and naked plunder, but carries out local adjustments in the relations of production and the superstructure system, and uses "smart power" or financial means to rule. Capitalism not only did not "die" immediately, but showed a certain vitality, but the decline caused by its insurmountable internal contradictions was irreversible; After the drastic changes in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, although the international communist movement fell into a low ebb, socialist China flourished with reform and opening up as the main theme, and the successful development of socialism with Chinese characteristics pushed the communist movement out of the trough. The competition, contest and game between capitalism and socialism are unfolding in an all-round way in a new form. The theme of the stage of the era has shifted from "war and revolution" to "peace and development", but the basic contradictions of the entire era revealed by the classic writers of Marxism have not changed, the general historical trend that the new social form of human history will eventually replace the old social form has not changed, and the spirit of the times, the Marxist world outlook methodology, which leads the trend of the times, has not become outdated. Marxist philosophy is a rational generalization of social practice. Marxist philosophy, which is the basis of the theory of scientific socialism, needs to re-examine capitalism and socialism and their relations, and provide the public with a new perspective for understanding the social and historical process and the future and destiny of mankind. "New Popular Philosophy" should accurately grasp the essence of the changes of the times and lead the public to carry out new philosophical understanding. In compiling the "New Popular Philosophy," we should strive to scientifically think about and answer new questions about scientific and technological innovation and the development of productive forces, and give a summary of the new philosophy. Science and technology have become the "primary productive forces", comprehensively and profoundly shaping the whole world. Globalization, informatization, marketization, the development and application of high and new technology have made the world change with each passing day. The productive forces created by modern capitalism in decades far exceed the sum of the productive forces of capitalism for hundreds of years, or even thousands of years of human society. In competition with capitalism, socialist China is developing in a catch-up manner. Although Marx once put forward a series of important ideas such as "science and technology are productive forces" and "world history theory", today's scientific and technological innovation and the development of productive forces, including the all-round penetration and impact of globalization, informationization and marketization on the economy, politics, culture and society, still put forward a large number of philosophical questions to be answered. Marxist philosophy is the ideological crystallization of the practice of production and scientific research in human society, and it is necessary to give new philosophical answers to the questions raised by the practice of social production and scientific development. The "New Popular Philosophy" should scientifically summarize the new issues raised by the development of high technology and productive forces, provide philosophical wisdom to grasp and solve problems on the whole, and carry out new philosophical interpretations. In compiling the "New Popular Philosophy," we should strive to profoundly sum up the new experiences that have emerged in the great practice of socialism with Chinese characteristics and make a new philosophical summary. Socialism with Chinese characteristics is a "brand-new undertaking" engaged in by contemporary Chinese communists. Reform has brought about profound changes in Chinese society, social structure, interest relations, and ideological concepts, which on the one hand has promoted rapid economic and social development and brought about new social contradictions on the other. Marxist philosophy should squarely face up to the major changes in the people's interests and needs, explore effective ways to meet the people's growing material and cultural needs, and study the correct path for properly handling complex conflicts of interests and building a prosperous, strong, democratic, civilized, and harmonious modern socialist country. In the process of answering major practical questions, "New Popular Philosophy" should give a philosophical explanation at the level of world view and methodology on the Chinese road, the Chinese model, the Chinese miracle, and the fresh experience of socialism with Chinese characteristics. In compiling the "New Popular Philosophy", we should also try to respond to various philosophical and social trends popular at home and abroad and give judgment to new philosophies. The development of philosophy is inseparable from ready-made ideological achievements, and Marxist philosophy is developed on the basis of critically inheriting all the excellent achievements of mankind and in the confrontation of ideas that criticize non-Marxist and anti-Marxist trends of thought. Under the impact of complicated social trends, people often feel confused, confused, unable to distinguish right from wrong, and unable to find the ideal pursuit and direction of progress. In this "feast of ideas", how to "respect differences and tolerate diversity", so that all ideas and cultures conducive to the construction of socialism with Chinese characteristics can fully flow; At the same time, criticizing erroneous philosophical trends, carrying forward correct philosophical views, condensing social consensus, and allowing mainstream ideology to occupy the position are historical tasks that cannot be avoided by Marxist philosophy. On the basis of criticizing all erroneous ideas and absorbing advanced ideological civilization, the "New Popular Philosophy" should undertake the historical mission of sublimating and innovating Marxist philosophy. The changes in the times and the problems of the times and the development of the struggle in practical practice have not only provided a new source for Marxist philosophy, but have also constantly put forward urgent demands for its own development. For the drastic changes and many problems, the classic writers of Marxist philosophy have not personally faced them, let alone specifically elaborated them in depth. It is impossible for any thinker to go beyond the times in which they live and declare super-anachronistic conclusions. Lenin said: "We do not demand that Marx or Marxists know all the specifics of the road to socialism. This is wishful thinking. We only know the direction of this road, we only know what kind of class forces lead this road; As for how to proceed in practice, that can only be shown by the experience of millions of people after they have begun to act. [1] But history does not stop because of the development of theories and the construction of theories. Reality is full of expectations for Marxist philosophical innovation, and people expect to be guided by the philosophical concept of Marxist innovation. Based on a high sense of mission and theoretical consciousness, the "New Popular Philosophy" strives to hold high the banner of the party's ideological line, persists in emancipating the mind, seeking truth from facts, advancing with the times, seeking truth and pragmatism, conforming to the trend of the times, and deeply thinking about and answering the challenges of the times and the confusion of the masses. "New Popular Philosophy" is neither a philosophy textbook, deliberately pursuing the rigor of the system, nor a philosophical monograph, persistently pursuing logical argument and rational reasoning; Instead, in view of major realities, taking problems as the center, paying close attention to the changes of the times and the development of the situation, paying attention to absorbing new achievements of human thought, carrying out philosophical upgrading and concept innovation, not sticking to the framework of the philosophical system, and taking the clarification of philosophical truths as the criterion. In terms of expression, "New Popular Philosophy" avoids pure abstract speculation and textbook-style textbook propaganda, and expounds in popular mass language, striving to be easy to understand, lively and lively, close to the new requirements of the vast number of readers, and let Marxist philosophy "speak the words of the Chinese people." Based on the true spirit of Marxist philosophy, "New Popular Philosophy" carries out philosophical interpretations around the issues of the times from seven aspects: general theory, materialism, dialectics, epistemology, historical view, value theory and outlook on life, and strives to elevate major theoretical and practical issues to the height of Marxist philosophical world outlook methodology for analysis and clarification, and strives to promote the eraization, sinicization and popularization of Marxist philosophy in the process of answering major theoretical and practical problems. This is the unshirkable responsibility entrusted by history to Marxist philosophy, and it is also the historical responsibility that the "New Popular Philosophy" should undertake and strive to achieve. Perhaps, in this era of information explosion and diversified public interests, this series of books cannot solve all the doubts and confusion of the public, but "New Popular Philosophy" is willing to seek and move forward together with sincere readers. The above is only the purpose of writing "New Popular Philosophy", however, due to the limited level and ability of the "New Popular Philosophy" authors, it may be difficult to meet expectations. Moreover, the New Popular Philosophy is divided into seven parts and is written independently, and necessary repetition is inevitable. At the same time, the authors' writing skills are not solid enough, and there are also imperfections in the text. Therefore, I kindly ask readers for their advice and revision when the New Popular Philosophy is reprinted. Notes [1] "Lenin's Essays on Socialism," People's Publishing House, 2009, p. 399.（AI翻译）
