What are the basic elements of the materialist conception of history in Mathematics?

The main contents of the materialist concept of history:

I. Production is the measure of all social progress in history, and the level of development of the productive forces of society determines the course of human society.

II. The relations of production, which are compatible with a certain development of the productive forces, constitute the real basis of a certain social form and economic structure, and he defines the main features of the social form.

III. A certain social form is the unity of a certain economic base and a certain superstructure, and the nature of the economic base determines the changes in the superstructure. The superstructure in turn serves and reacts on the economic base.

IV. All social systems, social forms are some temporary stages in the endless process of development of human society from the lower to the higher level, there is no eternal social system and form, the genesis of the social system is the result of the development of the basic contradictions in society.

Social relations have to mature under certain material conditions from the foundations of the old society, and social forms will not perish until all the productive forces they contain have been brought into play.

V. The concrete social forms that exist in reality are complex, and at every stage of the development of human society there are both dominant social forms and the remnants and germs of other social forms.

VI. The general overarching law of human society is from primitive society to slave, feudal, capitalist and then to socialist and ****productivist societies. This is a natural process of historical development, and the productive forces of society are the fundamental driving force for the historical advance of society.

VII. The history of human society is an objective process of development that does not depend on the subjective consciousness of the researcher, and has certain regularities. People studying history and exploring the laws of society must start from the objectively existing historical facts, possess the materials in detail, analyze the various forms of his development, reveal their inner connections and arrive at the corresponding results.

VIII. Human society and its constituent parts all exist in the form of a general system, to be studied from the whole of the object of study, from the interaction and contradiction within the object of study and the interaction between the object of study and the external environment.

9. In the objective historical process, all socio-historical factors interact.

X. Human society is in regular motion and develops from lower to higher levels, it is revealed as a historical process, and the various social phenomena constituting the historical process are also in motion and development.

We have to look at everything in history with a developmental perspective, use the dialectical point of view to grasp the essential links and internal contradictions of the object, but also to refer the object of study to a certain scope, specific problems and specific analysis, so as to accurately grasp the object.

xi. The development and change of social and historical things, there are two ways of evolution (reform) and revolution.

xii. The roots of socio-historical development lie in its various complex internal and external contradictions.

XIII. In the course of objective history, the environment creates man and man creates the environment.

XIV. The study of social history is not a simple negative reflection process, but a dialectical and unifying process of interpenetration and interaction between subject and object.

Introduction

Any point of view that states that society exists and develops from history, that society exists and develops inseparably from history, and that there is an inevitable relationship of inheritance and development between society and history is the historical materialist point of view. Historical materialism views and deals with problems with the following characteristics:

How to look at the problem of history

The recognition of history and the belief that history is the very source of all things in itself solves the problem of where things come from, which is a proposition in philosophy. Nothing comes out of nothing, but necessarily has a predecessor or antecedent, and our present is a variation or consequence of that predecessor or antecedent.

Maybe you want to ask: this is a simple question, is there a situation in reality that does not recognize history? For example, we sometimes criticize people for forgetting their ancestors, and there are even people with dark and ugly purposes who not only do not recognize history, but also distort and falsify it.

Aren't those who don't recognize Taiwan as a part of the Chinese nation and are bent on splitting it up forgetting their ancestors? Certain people with ulterior motives in the country of Japan do not recognize the historical aggression and falsification of history.

And the reality is that there are people who reach a certain status, they are ashamed to mention the original poor situation, and even in front of the crowd and their own honest and simple relatives do not dare to recognize, which is not dare to face the history of a performance. It seems that recognizing history sometimes still requires courage, integrity and backbone.

Only by recognizing history first can we respect it. Respect for history has many manifestations: recognizing the truth of history, acknowledging past mistakes, recognizing the achievements and fruits of our forefathers, assuming due historical responsibility, enjoying due historical rights and interests, and so on.

Newton once humbly said, "I may be able to see farther than Descartes, and that is because I stand on the shoulders of many giants." This is both a virtue and an adherence to the historical perspective. Is it not true that our knowledge and experience, our foundations and conditions, are not inherited and developed from our forefathers.

Genius also requires certain historical conditions, and does not come out of nowhere. Not to recognize the mistakes that have been made, it is a rogue and a scoundrel; not to recognize the established territory and sovereignty of a country, there will be an excuse to infringe on others; not to recognize the juridical relationship of subservience, there will be an escape from taking responsibility for the deeds ...... It seems that not recognizing and respecting the history is not only a matter of attitude, but also leads to serious and erroneous consequences.

How to use the problem of history

With a historical point of view, we will be more comprehensive, more objective, more in line with the reality, more intelligent, and closer to the objective law of things themselves when we look at, analyze and deal with problems.

First of all, with a historical perspective, we will have a stronger understanding and inclusiveness. There is a saying that "history makes heroes", which is also a historical point of view. It's about what kind of historical circumstances create what kind of heroes.

There are many historical events made by historical figures that seem a bit unbelievable to many of us today, but in fact may be well understood by relating them to the context of the time.

For example: Li Shimin started the Xuanwumen Incident in order to fight for the throne. The ancient people even killed their own brothers in order to fight for the throne, how cruel! In fact, as long as we understand the formation of the two forces at that time, the differences and the situation of incompatibility, we will know that it is very normal for such things to happen.

Secondly, with a historical perspective, we can more accurately judge the situation, distinguish between pros and cons, and thus carry out our work in a targeted manner. There is a saying that "judging the time and evaluating the situation", which is also a historical point of view. What kind of work can be carried out and what kind of problems can be solved only under what kind of historical conditions, and not in a haphazard way.

When the country is in danger and the nation is in distress, we have to take the defense of the country and the resolution of the national crisis as our top priority. At a time when we are poor and backward, hungry and cold, we have to take the development of production and solve the problem of food and clothing as the focus of work. After people have solved the problem of food and clothing, we have to solve environmental problems, energy problems, sustainable development and other issues.

Once again, with a historical perspective, we can humbly absorb the experience of our predecessors and combine it with our own reality, so as to avoid unnecessary losses and to make less detours. Theories and experiences that have been proved by previous generations through practice, we should unquestioningly absorb and learn from them. As the old saying goes: the former car of the rut, after the car.

Unswervingly take the mass line, from the masses, to the masses, believe in the masses, rely on the masses, mobilize the masses, for the people, etc. These are the revolutionary predecessors with life and practice for the experience, must be adhered to and carry forward.

National prosperity in the clear, destroyed by corruption, the rise of unity, decline in the split and so on these are the Chinese nation has proved countless times the invariable truth, we must remember, can not repeat the mistakes of the previous cart. There is a saying that "forgetting history means betrayal." We may be able to forget the hatred, but must not forget the lessons and enemies.
