释义 | revisionismn. 1. The policy or practice of revision or modification; departure from the original interpretation of a theory, etc.; esp. the revision of Marxism on evolutionary socialist or pluralist principles (as opposed to its original revolutionary principles).From the early 20th cent. the term was applied (usually in derogatory sense) to the critique of the theoretical premises and political strategies of Marxism put forward in the 1890s by German political thinker Edward Bernstein (1850–1932), who argued that it was possible to move towards socialism by electoral, collaborative, and other gradual means—an idea rejected by orthodox Marxists. In later use also applied to other reinterpretations and modifications of communist or socialist theory.
