When I wrote this topic, I sighed, not because China and the United States have formed a historical exchange of political civilizations between each other after decades of reform, but because we pointed out this problem many years ago, but everyone has not cared about it, until today, more and more people are pointing out this problem like the following, but everyone still does not care. The reason why I didn't care about it was that at the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, the reform religion formed by the extreme right forces glorified the United States as a representative of privatization, marketization and liberalization, and the Chinese saw it as a completely fictional and distorted United States, not the real United States; The second is that the Five Maoists on the left have demonized the United States into an America that has not changed anything from 30 years ago, and it is still a fictional America, not a real America. The reason why the right-wing reformists and the left-wing Five Maoists fabricate the United States from two aspects is neither to praise the United States nor to belittle the United States, but to mislead China and mislead China in the direction of reform.
It can be said that their misdirection of China's reforms has been quite successful so far. As long as you put China and the United States into the same coordinate system, you can see that over the past 30 or 40 years, China and the United States have gone in completely opposite directions of reform, and have formed two completely symmetrical development curves with each other. China's ownership system is being reformed from public ownership to privatization, the mode of development is being reformed from the planned economy to the market, the mode of distribution is being reformed from common prosperity to the polarization of the rich and the poor, the political system is reformed from mass politics to elite politics, the legal system is reformed from the supremacy of morality to the supremacy of law, the ideology is reformed from the unified ideology to the direction of liberalization, and the democratic buoy of national governance is constantly moving up from the collective wisdom of the people at the bottom to the top-level design in the early stage of reform, etc. At the same time, the direction of reform in the United States is completely opposite to China, and the reform curve has formed an obvious reverse intersection with China, with the reform of ownership from private ownership to public ownership, the reform of the development mode from marketization to the reform of the planned economy, the reform of the distribution mode from polarization to the reform of narrowing differences, the reform of the political system from elite politics to mass politics, the reform of the legal system from the supremacy of law to the supremacy of morality, the reform of ideology from liberalization to the direction of unification, and the democratic buoy of national governance is constantly moving down to the bottom. In the end, the political civilizations of China and the United States have completely formed a historical exchange, and China has rushed to the yesterday of the United States, and the United States has rushed to China's yesterday. If we use the Nordic countries to replace the United States and place them in the same coordinate system, we will find that the exchange between Chinese reform and Western reform is more typical, and almost exactly the same as each other's original position.
We can't go into a long article due to space limitations, and we have had a lot of long articles in this area in the past, so if you are interested, you can check them out, but here is just a brief introduction to the special points that you are wondering about. For example, in terms of the Sino-US swap of ownership reforms, the proportion of private enterprises in China's official statistics has changed from less than 5% before the reform to about 95% now, while the proportion of the new public economy in the United States, such as the employee stock ownership system, has risen from less than 1% in the past to more than 90% now. Before China's reform, what enterprises produced and what they did not produce was arranged by the state plan, but now it is completely up to the enterprises to decide. What U.S. companies do and what they don't do is increasingly determined by national planning, for example, the development of U.S. and Chinese companies in the U.S. is completely determined by the U.S.; Before China's reform, whether the defendant was guilty or not, whether he should be killed or not, was decided by public opinion, and now it is completely decided by judges and prosecutors, while in the United States, the guilt or innocence of the defendant is decided by the ordinary people, that is, the citizen jury, which is selected by drawing lots for ID cards. China's fields of knowledge are determined by teachers based on uniform answers and are not allowed to be freely chosen, while the fields of faith are diverse and unmanaged, allowing them to run rampant as long as they do not violate today's policies; In the United States, free criticism is practiced in the field of knowledge and ideology is avoided, while concentration is practiced in the field of belief and criticism is not allowed. The same is true in diplomacy, the current principle pursued by China's diplomacy is that "there are no eternal friends, eternal enemies, only eternal interests" abandoned by the United States and other Western countries, while the United States regards moral principles such as human rights, democracy, freedom, and allies as universal values, especially putting economic development above economic development, which is almost no different from the development principle of "taking class struggle as the key link, and the rest as the goal" in the past.
In short, the reform trade-offs between China and the United States are exactly as *** said before his death: "We must support whatever the enemy opposes, and we must oppose whatever the enemy supports." Whatever China has denied in its reforms, the United States has taken all of it; China has taken everything that the United States has discarded in the reforms. China and the United States have become each other's reform targets, the United States is reforming in the direction of the Cultural Revolution, which was rejected by China, and China is reforming in the direction of the development model of 30 years ago, which was denied by the United States. However, it would be a big mistake to conclude that both China and the United States are learning from each other's yesterday. What China learns and draws on is the development model of the United States yesterday, and what the United States learns and draws on is by no means China's development model of yesterday, but the development model of human society tomorrow that China is exploring, or the development model leading to tomorrow. In other words, even without China's exploration yesterday, the inherent laws of the development of human society will certainly push the United States and other Western countries onto the development path of mass democracy and mass politics today, and push the United States and other Western countries to abandon the original development model of elite politics and private ownership. This is the general trend of the development of human society, the development direction of the reshuffle of the world today, the interests of 99% of the people in the world, the hope and the only way to move towards a community with a shared future for mankind.
It can be seen that what the United States learns and borrows from China is the most advanced political civilization in the world today, while what China learns and borrows from the United States is the backward political civilization that has been eliminated. What the United States took from China was the flying butterflies formed by the spring silkworms, while what China took from the United States was the empty cocoon shells left after the spring silkworms turned into butterflies. It is precisely the difference in political civilization caused by this historical exchange that has caused the United States, which is now declining more and more, to be more and more arrogant and arbitrarily intervene in the face of China. This is the fundamental reason why we call on the state to carry out a comprehensive adjustment of the current reform against the trend.
