80多年前,列宁根据俄国的实际,从人和物对比的角度提出了劳动者是“首要生产力”的论断。70年后,邓小平同志根据时代发展的要求提出了“科学技术是第一生产力”的论断。无论“首要生产力”还是“第一生产力,”它们都是唯物史观的重要命题,是马克思主义生产力理论的重要组成部分。 More than 80 years ago, Lenin put forward the conclusion that laborers are “primary productive forces” from the perspective of comparison of people and things according to the reality of Russia. 70 years later, Comrade Deng Xiaoping put forward the thesis that “science and technology are primary productive forces” based on the requirements of the development of the times. Both “primary productivity” and “primary productive force” are important propositions of historical materialism and are an important part of Marxist theory of productivity.
