Class struggle is an integral part to marxism leninism
You're viewing a single thread.
This is just a reference to and confirmation of Deng's position and changes versus those of Mao and then the Gang of Four when Deng's faction won out. The central focus of Deng was in recognizing China's economic instability (and its impact on the people) and coming to the conclusion that this was due to China being in a state of under-development of its productive forces. After the implementation of Deng's reforms, China's economy continued to improve as it had before but in a less boom-and-bust fashion.
Re: class struggle itself, the position here is not that it is not important, but in that Dengism did not see it as the primary contradiction within China (not the world - that is/was imperialist struggle), instead saying it was the underdeveloped productive forces vs. the material needs of the people. This is just a Marxist phrasing for "using our analytical method, this is the most important thing to focus on, it colors all other contradictions more than they color it". Dengism still adhered to the concept and importance of class struggle itself and all schools teach it.
but even under dengs own requirements the reform has gone way too far, see my comment referencing this to Cowbee.
Deng's position i still think is quite correct, im more referencing the post-deng party
Your title says that the CPC has rejected class struggle per this video. As you can see, this is incorrect. My suspicion is that there was a misunderstanding of the very specific reference to a position taken by Mao and then its eventual counter by Deng, and what a primary contradiction is.
huh, then thats my mistake
