邓小平的社会主义经济思想,是他创立的建设有中国特色社会主义理论的重要组成部分。邓小平经济思想中居于核心地位的是他的生产力思想。邓小平关于“科学技术是第一生产力”的论断,可以说是邓小平科技生产力理论最具代表性、最精华的部分。在民族工作中全面深刻领会邓小平关于“科技是第一生产力”的思想,认真贯彻《中共中央国务院关于加速科学技术进步的决定》和全国科学技术大会精神,实施“科教兴国”伟大战略,加速全社会的进步,对振兴民族经济,赶超发达地区社会经济文化发展水平,实现现代化建设第二步、第三步战略目标,把我国建设成为社会主义现代化强国有着特殊的重要意义。 （一） 马克思政治经济学认为,科学技术进步、资金投入、劳动力因素等三个方面的作用,是经济增长的直接动因。因此,邓小平说:“科学技术是生产力,这是马克思主义历史的观点。”但在不同的历史社会条件下,科学技术进步,资金投入,劳动力因素这三方面对经济增长的作用力是不等量的,有着各不相同的贡献份额。1978年3月18日,邓小平《在全国科学大会开幕式的讲话》指出:“当代的自然科学正以空前的规模和速度,应用于生产,使社会物质生产的各个领域的面貌一新。特别是由于电子计算机、控制论和自动化技术的发展 Deng Xiaoping’s socialist economic thinking is an important part of his theory of building socialism with Chinese characteristics. At the heart of Deng Xiaoping’s economic thinking is his idea of ​​productive forces. Deng Xiaoping’s thesis that science and technology are primary productive forces can be said to be the most representative and quintessential part of Deng Xiaoping’s theory of science and technology productivity. Deng Xiaoping fully and profoundly grasped Deng Xiaoping’s thought of “science and technology are primary productive forces” in ethnic work, earnestly implemented the “Decision of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on Accelerating the Progress of Science and Technology” and the spirit of the National Science and Technology Conference, implemented the great strategy of “rejuvenating our country through science and education”, and accelerated Social progress has a special and important significance for rejuvenating the national economy, catching up with the socio-economic and cultural development in the developed areas and realizing the strategic objectives of the second and third steps of the modernization drive and building our country into a powerful modernized socialist country. (1) According to Marx’s political economy, the role of scientific and technological progress, capital investment and labor factors are the direct motivation for economic growth. Therefore, Deng Xiaoping said: “Science and technology are productive forces and this is the Marxist historical point of view.” However, under different historical and social conditions, the forces of scientific and technological progress, capital investment and labor force on the three aspects of economic growth are not equal Quantitative, has a different share of contribution. On March 18, 1978, Deng Xiaoping’s “Speech at the Opening Ceremony of the National Science Conference” pointed out: "Contemporary natural sciences are being applied to production at an unprecedented scale and speed so that all aspects of social material production will look new. It is due to the development of computer, cybernetics and automation technology
