Is Marxism "Useless" to Socialist Market-oriented Economy?
Marx's standpoint that commodity production does not exist in socialist society is a scientific standpoint.China's socialism at present is still in a more initial stage of the transition period Marx said and the commodity production in the "initial stage of socialism" is actually the commodity production in the transition period admitted by Marx.It is a basic standpoint of Marxist economics that commodity production is sure to lead to capitalism,while what is called that "socialist commodity production" does not lead to capitalism is with conditions,it is predicated on admitting Marx's standpoint that commodity production is sure to lead to capitalism.To develop "market-oriented economy in the initial stage of socialism" should take Marxist economics as guide,admit the dual character of commodity production or market-oriented economy,hold the characteristics of "socialist market-oriented economy" and persist in combining plans with the market.Adhering to and developing Marxism must have a correct understanding on it.
