Issues Raised From Criticizing Viewpoints Denying the Path to Socialism in Vietnam.

If it is corrected, it will be a great challenge to the Party's leadership role and the survival of the regime." [42 - pp.21,22].

3.2.2 Issues raised by criticizing viewpoints that deny the path to socialism in Vietnam .

3.2.2.1. Theoretical research and practical summary have not met the need to clarify the path to socialism in our country.

Our Party has pointed out that, compared to the requirements and tasks of the new period, ideological work is still lacking in sharpness, persuasiveness, combativeness, practicality and flexibility. Theoretical work is still backward in some aspects, failing to meet the requirements of a rapidly changing and complex reality. The weaknesses and shortcomings of ideological and theoretical work, together with other subjective and objective factors such as: the collapse of the socialist regime in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union; the plots and sabotage activities of hostile forces through the DBHB strategy; the strong trend of globalization, especially economic globalization; the degeneration and corruption of a number of cadres and party members; the Party and State's guidelines and policies still have shortcomings; the people's lives still face difficulties and shortages... have negatively affected the thoughts, moods and political sentiments of many cadres, party members and people. These are major issues for theoretical work, and on the other hand, they are also limitations that are not easy to solve in clarifying and protecting the path to socialism in Vietnam.

The more rapidly practice moves, develops, and changes, the more new issues arise that need to be resolved in the task of summarizing practice and concluding theory. Many theoretical issues on the path to socialism in Vietnam need to be further clarified. Currently, the urgent issue is to regularly summarize practice in order to grasp and resolve the major relationships that arise on the path to socialism in Vietnam. Our Party points out that "we must pay special attention to grasping and resolving well the major relationships." These are:

The relationship between innovation, stability and development; Between economic innovation and political innovation; Between market economy and socialist orientation; Between developing productive forces and building and gradually perfecting socialist production relations; Between economic growth and cultural development, realizing social progress and justice; Between building socialism and protecting the socialist Fatherland; Between independence, autonomy and international integration; Between Party leadership, State management, people's mastery... Clarifying through theory and correctly resolving these major relationships will be the most vivid, concrete and practical evidence for the directions and solutions to transition to socialism bypassing the capitalist regime in Vietnam. [41 - pp.26-27]

3.2.2.2 The professionalism of the specialized team and the popularity of criticizing viewpoints that deny the path to socialism in our country are not really cohesive.

Our ideological enemies are diverse and have many tricks. They are anti-socialist forces, opportunists, reactionaries, etc. Among them are many people with degrees, high education and professional propaganda tricks. They have done quite deep research on theories and are supported by many forces, condoning activities that sabotage socialism.

Meanwhile, our organization of the struggle against false and distorted arguments has not been proactive, has not been carried out regularly, continuously and promptly. We have not been able to use all branches of ideological work, and have not been able to establish and mobilize a team of "elite soldiers".

People have not been equipped with knowledge to understand the nature, plots, and propaganda tricks of false arguments, leading to a lack of social support in this fight, and, the people themselves have not paid attention to the fight against false arguments, they see it as the task of the authorities.

function, not theirs, which leads to a state of indifference to false information and arguments that is still quite common, and a sense of vigilance and self-awareness in criticizing false arguments is still limited.

The basis for ensuring and connecting the team of specialists and the masses is the mutual benefit. Therefore, whenever and wherever social classes and individuals have not yet seen that criticizing and opposing erroneous viewpoints is for the benefit of their own class, stratum, or individual, then the criticism of viewpoints that deny the path to socialism in our country is not really closely connected.

Professionalism is demonstrated by presenting coherent, accurate, convincing arguments and reasoning on a large scale and in a timely manner to counter the arguments that deny the path to socialism in our country. On the one hand, propaganda and education on Marxism-Leninism, Ho Chi Minh's thought, viewpoints, guidelines, policies and laws, so that people understand the correctness and humanity of the socialist ideology, thereby creating an environment of high social solidarity and consensus. On the other hand, it is necessary to promptly "expose and name" the nature of wrong viewpoints and destructive arguments, clearly point out the sinister plots, destructive actions and evil intentions of hostile forces in harming national interests. Organize many activities to refute wrong and anti-state viewpoints by inviting leading experts, prestigious people in society, researchers, analysts, and commentators in an objective and scientific manner to protect and affirm the superiority of the socialist society we are building.

Thus, the fight against current wrong views requires promoting the combined strength and diversifying the forms and methods of struggle. Strengthening the organization to connect the strengths and synthesize all resources of the whole society in this struggle is the leadership role of the Communist Party of Vietnam.

3.2.2.3 There needs to be more incentives for ideological and theoretical struggles.

In fact, the cause of building socialism in Vietnam still faces many difficulties. The issue of the future of socialism needs to be analyzed seriously and scientifically to develop theories and solve problems raised by practice. Know how to gather the intelligence of the whole nation, discuss and debate democratically, scientifically and with goodwill, to reach unity and high consensus on major issues of the revolutionary cause. Resolutely refute reactionary arguments that deliberately deny and distort socialism, but also know how to accept research, proposals, and share passions and concerns... In the strong development of science and technology, of the trend of democratization, the need for information and transparency is also natural. There needs to be a proactive debate mechanism to open more forums for society to broaden public opinion, expand information, and contribute ideas to the common cause of the country. "Looking straight at the truth, speaking the truth clearly" is our truly receptive attitude.

There needs to be a mechanism to encourage democratic discussion and debate to find objective truth. We criticize and resolutely reject the slanderous and distorted arguments of those who oppose socialism, but opinions and deviations due to cognitive limitations or psychological concerns need to be listened to, shared and dialogued to reach social consensus. Many people have a clear conscience, are sympathetic to the nation, to the times and have many new opinions, but sometimes they are discriminated against. For this reason, goodwill for the cause of innovation, legitimate thoughts about the times and, more importantly, the political activism of citizens have not been properly encouraged...

3.2.2.4. Opportunistic and hostile forces are using increasingly sophisticated methods to sabotage us, but our responses are sometimes not yet necessary, timely, and highly polemical.

In recent years, along with DBHB, hostile forces have stepped up activities to sabotage the cause of building socialism in our country.

To carry out that plot, hostile forces have established and nurtured reactionary organizations of Vietnamese exiles abroad, mainly elements with hatred for the revolution, to disseminate many articles, books, even films, seminars... Almost every new policy and guideline of our Party and State, every event taking place in Vietnam, immediately has gossip, comments, distortions or denials... In recent decades, overseas, there have begun to be seemingly "scientific, serious" and quite solid research projects on many political and social topics in Vietnam. The logical nature has been enhanced, the manifestations of insults and gossip have been reduced, and instead there are manifestations of "ideological" processing. This trick has proven to be quite popular, especially with intellectuals and students.

At the same time, they also carry out acts of bribing, enticing, and enticing the masses to participate in demonstrations, causing riots, and disrupting public order, with the aim of dividing the party internally, propagating opposing ideologies, and inciting social groups, especially artists, students, and pupils, etc., in order to gather and develop reserve forces for the establishment of opposition political organizations in the future.

They often take advantage of shortcomings in state management and unresolved social and life concerns to incite political and social instability.

On the other hand, in the face of the enemy's plots and tricks, our reactions are sometimes not sufficient, timely, and highly polemical.

The frequency of refuting opposing viewpoints on our forums is low and quite different from that of our opponents. There are figures that for every 1,600 malicious propaganda posts from the enemy, we only have 1 post to respond to! Many authors still argue with enthusiasm, not entirely with the sharpness of their theoretical thinking. The arguments of many polemics are also monotonous and unconvincing, in the style of "they say it's wrong, we say it's right". Many articles have not yet gone into theoretical analysis in the direction of

In-depth, rational thinking , pointing out the logical errors of ideological opponents and having solid arguments from practice. The polemical methodology of C.Marx, F.Engels, and V.Lenin with previous ideological opponents, today does not see much and clearly the inheritance from "descendants". It is these limitations that have partly reduced the effectiveness of the class struggle in the ideological field today.

Upholding the spirit of science and revolution and resolutely fighting to refute viewpoints that deny the path to socialism is also an aspect that requires a lot of investment of courage, intelligence and enthusiasm to successfully build socialism in our country.

Chapter 3 Summary

The struggle and criticism of viewpoints that deny the path to socialism in our country took place in a complicated context, the international situation contained many unfavorable factors, typically the collapse of the socialist regime in Eastern Europe, the Soviet Union and the frenzy of anti-socialism from hostile forces.

The struggle against the wrong views that deny the path to socialism in our country in recent times has achieved fundamental successes: We have affirmed and protected Marxism-Leninism, Ho Chi Minh's thought, the leadership of the Communist Party of Vietnam, initially maintained the socialist orientation in all areas of social life, brought "real" values to all social fields, and affirmed the correctness of the path to socialism.

to socialism in Vietnam. The leadership and management work in the struggle to criticize the viewpoints that deny the path to socialism in Vietnam has been increasingly strengthened. The struggle to directly criticize the erroneous viewpoints of hostile forces has helped the majority of cadres, party members and people to be more aware of the plot of peaceful evolution of hostile forces.

However, we still have many limitations: ideological work is still not sharp, not close to reality and not flexible; political and ideological education and the fight against individualism have not been done well; persuasiveness and fighting spirit are not high; the fight against and refuting of erroneous, hostile viewpoints, ambiguous, opportunistic and erroneous viewpoints are still passive and ineffective.

Many issues arising from practice require supplementation and improvement with more appropriate and effective guiding viewpoints and solutions in order to improve the effectiveness of the struggle against viewpoints that deny the path to socialism in our country.

VIEWPOINTS AND SOLUTIONS TO IMPROVE THE EFFICIENCY OF CRITICISM VIEWPOINTS THAT DENIAL THE WAY UP

SOCIALISM IN VIETNAM.

4.1. Basic viewpoints to improve the effectiveness of criticizing viewpoints that deny the path to socialism in our country

4.1.1. Clearly recognize the complexity and danger of theoretically opposing the path to socialism in Vietnam.

The new context of world political life today is quite complicated, the enemies of socialism have been shifting from direct confrontation through violent conflict to "peaceful evolution". The goal of fighting socialism has not changed, but there have been signs of changing forms and measures. Our Party has assessed: "The sabotage of hostile forces at home and abroad is becoming more and more frenzied, fierce and sophisticated." [36 - p.39]. The outstanding feature in terms of methods of the forces fighting against socialism in Vietnam today is the increase in theoretical content in the direction of political opportunism:

Taking advantage of the policy of innovation in the political field, they also know how to use terms such as democratizing social life, fighting against bureaucracy and corruption , fighting against abuse of power... which are policies of our Party and State to oppose the cause of building socialism in Vietnam.

Taking advantage of democratization to distort the socialist regime in Vietnam, inciting pluralistic and anarchistic democratic tendencies, aiming to form opposition forces to sabotage us. Taking advantage of the process of reform, innovation, and democratization of social life to incite bourgeois freedom and democracy, distorting socialist democracy. Using the guise of pluralism and multi-party system as the only solution to build a so-called democratic society in the style of
