A Review of the Research on Marx’s and Engels’s Social Psychology

Abstract

There is no special and systematic exposition of it, but Marx's and Engels's social psychology has become an important part of Marx's and Engels's theoretical system and plays an extremely important role in Marx's and Engels's social consciousness theory. In the development of Marx's and Engels's social psychology, Engels made profound reflection and summarization, and a large number of firm Marxists such as Plekhanov, Lenin, Mao Zedong, and Deng Xiaoping developed and enriched this idea, by which an extremely rich source of Marxist psychosocial thoughts formed. However, in the academic research with the joint development and contention of a hundred schools of thought, domestic research on social psychology still needs to improve and strengthen the systemic arrangement of social and psychological thought, the clarification of important research contents, and the application of practices.
