伟大的无产阶级革命导师马克思离开我们整整一百周年了。他给人类留下了取之不尽、用之不竭的精神财富,其中也包括关于青年、关于培养无产阶级接班人和造就自由全面发展的共产主义新人的论述。马克思的亲密战友恩格斯以及他们的忠实继承人列宁、斯大林、毛泽东等无产阶级革命家,在创造性地发展科学社会主义和共产主义理论的同时,也创造性地发展了关于青年的科学理论。胡耀邦同志最近在共青团十一届一中全会上讲话强调:“青年同志应当胜过老一辈”这 Marx, a great proletarian revolutionary mentor, has left us a full hundredth anniversary. He has left untold and inexhaustible spiritual wealth to mankind, including discourse on youth, training of successors for the proletariat and creation of new communists with free and all-round development. Engels, Marx’s close comrade-in-arms and proletarian revolutionaries like Lenin, Stalin and Mao Tse-tung, loyal successors, have creatively developed scientific theories about youth while creatively developing scientific socialism and communism. Comrade Hu Yaobang recently addressed the First Plenary Session of the 11th Central Committee Committee of Communist Youth League: “Young gays should win the older generation.”
