托洛茨基不是无产阶级文化派。他在文化问题上是比较开明的,认定精神创造需要自由,主张按照文艺自身的规律行事。他不以作家的出身来划分作家的阵营,需要的只是区分革命和反革命。在创作方法上无需强求一律,需给以充分自由。反对某一团体垄断文化的领导权,主张作家用作品进行竞争。他提出“同路人”的概念,保护了一批遭排斥打击的作家。他既不排斥传统文化,也不排斥西方文化的成就。他所主张的文化政策,今天看来也还有可取之处。他否定“无产阶级文化”的理由,未必能够成立,但无论如何,他不是“无产阶级文化”的支持者。 Trotsky is not a proletarian cultural school. He is more enlightened on the issue of culture, finds that spiritual creation needs freedom, and advocates acting according to the law of literature and art. He did not divide the writers’ camps by the origin of the writers; all he needed was a distinction between revolution and counter-revolution. There is no need to be rigid in the method of creation, and full freedom is required. Oppose the monopoly culture leadership of a certain group and advocate that the writer use the work to compete. He put forward the concept of “fellow travelers” and protected a number of writers who had been excluded from criticism. He neither excludes traditional culture nor does he exclude the achievements of Western culture. The cultural policy he advocates seems to have merit today. He may not justify “proletarian culture,” but he may not be a proponent of “proletarian culture” anyway.
