认识和处理社会主义与资本主义的关系:苏联的经验教训

列宁从十月革命后苏俄和世界形势发展的实际出发,在认识和处理社会主义与资本主义的关系问题上,阐述了许多意义深刻的观点.这些观点既构成了列宁探索苏俄走向社会主义的道路的一部分,也从一个重要方面揭示了先前资本主义发展不充分的落后国家建设社会主义的特殊规律.但是后来,苏联由于对什么是社会主义作了肤浅的片面的理解,导致在认识和处理社会主义与资本主义的关系时,长期陷入两大谬误其一,将社会主义与资本主义的对立绝对化和简单化,不在两者的联系中把握对立,对资本主义采取否定一切、批判一切的态度;其二,仅以自己建成的社会主义所具有的某些特征,如公有制和计划经济等,去跟资本主义的私有制和市场经济等作对比,长期如此所形成的优越感和思维定势,使苏联难以产生吸收和借鉴资本主义有用的东西来建设社会主义的愿望,终致思想和体制僵化,想坚持的社会主义消失了,想否定净尽的资本主义复活了.

台湾问题：美国对华政策中的两难议题

台湾问题是困扰中美关系的一大难题。美国基于维护台湾海峡两岸不统不独、不战不和的利益考虑,试图对双方采取平衡交往的双轨政策。但这一政策却因美国国内不同利益团体的作用,选举周期的影响,国际战略格局的变化和海峡两岸的政治角力,不时地受到冲击,发生周期性的变化。美国对华政策的周期摇摆性,不利于维持台海现状。1995-1996年的海峡危机和2003-2004年岛内公投、制宪、正名风潮,与美方未能妥善处理台湾这一难题,给台北发出错误信号就有很大关系。
