Abstract: In the materialist view of history and Marxist view of revolution, both social revolution and self-reform are essential components. Across different periods of social revolution, the agents, targets, methods, and pathways of social revolution vary significantly. Similarly, for different revolutionary agents, the objects, substance, approaches, and trajectories of selfreform also differ in their revolutionary activities. Precisely due to these variations in revolutionary objects, substance, methods, and pathways, selfreform manifests unique value and significance distinct from social revolution in promoting historical progress and advancing human civilization. The process of social revolution simultaneously embodies the continuous advancement and realization of selfreform by revolutionary agents. For revolutionary classes or political parties, their social revolution and selfreform exist in dialectical unity. Selfreform takes shape and is realized through social revolution, while simultaneously driving and guiding social revolution. In the new era and on the new journey, guiding social revolution through the Partys selfreform serves as the principal revolutionary approach of the Communist Party of China (CPC) in the new era, the innovative revolutionary philosophy of the CPC in the new era, and the primary driving force of sociohistorical development in our times.

Key words: social revolution, self-reform, dialectical understanding, driving force of historical development, materialist view of history

摘要： 在唯物主义历史观与马克思主义革命观中，无论是社会革命，还是自我革命，都是其重要内容。在不同的社会革命时期，社会革命的主体、对象、方式或途径，都是不太一样的。同样，对于不同的革命主体而言，在其革命活动中，自我革命的对象、内容、方式、路径，也是有所不同的。正是因为自我革命在革命对象、革命内容、革命方式与革命路径的不同，也决定着自我革命在推动社会历史发展与人类文明进步上，有着不同于社会革命的价值与意义。社会革命的过程，也是革命主体的自我革命不断推进与实现的过程。对于革命阶级或革命政党而言，其社会革命与自我革命是辩证统一的。在社会革命中生成与实现自我革命，在自我革命中推动与引领社会革命。新时代新征程，以党的自我革命引领社会革命，是新时代中国共产党主要的革命方式，也是新时代中国共产党新的革命理念，同时还是我们这个时代社会历史发展的主要推动力。
