CHINESE (SINICIZED) AND SOVIET MARXISM: A COMPARATIVE AYALYSIS OF THE IDEATIONAL-THEORETICAL FOUNDATIONS AND DOCTRINAL SOCIO-POLITICAL PRESCRIPTIONS OF THE PROJECTS OF SOCIALIST AND COMMUNIST CON-STRUCTION OF THE CPC AND THE CPSU

Abstract Based on the analysis of numerous publications from the second half of the nineteenth century and the first decades of the twentieth century by specialists in Soviet and Chinese Marxism, which have become two of its most influential paradigmatic varieties in the world, and metanarratives for the USSR and China, the article offers an innovative methodological approach for the scientific and heuristic study of the defining tendencies in the development of the Marxist philosophical and socio-political theory, its large-scale and institutionally supported attempts to adapt to the development conditions of a particular country. First of all, during the radical reform of the socialist economic and socio-political system already created in it. The attributive features of modern Chinese Marxism (Marxism with Chinese specifics (the Chinese concept of "Adaptation of Marxism to the Chinese Context"), Sinicized Marxism), as the most effective version in world history for correcting and modernizing the axiomatics of the Marxist-Leninist theoretical model of social development, as well as improving the ideology of the ruling Communist Party in order to increase the effectiveness of its domestic and foreign state policies, have been characterized by means of concrete-historical and systematic comparative analysis of the ideational grounds and basic socio-philosophical postulates, political and ideological prescriptions of the program documents of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and the Communist Party of China. Within the framework of this study, special attention has been paid to highlighting the essence and features of the Soviet and Chinese strategy of socialist construction, created to implement Marxist socialist and communist projects, as well as revealing the scientific evaluation of the differences between the political doctrines of the CPSU and the CPC in the interpretation of objective logic (the duration of stages, goals, and objectives of fundamental economic, social, political, and cultural transformations) of the process of constructing high-level development socialism ("developed socialism") and the further progressive movement of such a society to the phase of communism.
