作为马克思主义政党根本组织原则和组织制度的“民主集中制”由列宁首先明确提出。在列宁时代,民主集中制的“民主”和“集中”在不同的环境中就有侧重。中国共产党新民主主义革命时期在接受和运用这一根本组织原则和根本组织制度时,承接了列宁“民主集中制”观点的秉性,并把它发展成党内决策和领导方法。 Lenin, as the fundamental organizational principle and organizational system of the Marxist party, has clearly stated “democratic centralism.” In Lenin’s time, the “democratic” and “centralization” of democratic centralism have different emphases. When accepting and applying this basic organizational principle and fundamental organizational system, the Chinese Communist Party took on the principle of Lenin’s “democratic centralism” during the period of the new-democratic revolution and developed it into an intra-party decision-making and leadership method.
