Abstract: The first generation leading core of the Chinese Communist Party represented by Mao Zedong, from the Marxist view that the right of existence is the first and foremost of all other human rights, made a profound analysis of the characteristics of semi-colonial and semi-feudal China, pointing out that the two greatest tasks of contemporary China was to fight for national independence and for people's demecracy, the former being the first and foremost. At that time, owing to the fact that there existed no Western-pattern democratic system in China, it was impossible for the Chinese people to obtain human rights by peaceful means. Instead, the Chinese people must fight for human rights with revolutionary forces against imperialism, feudalism and bureaucrat- capitalismMao Zedong and the Chinese Communist Party eventually succeeded in leading the Chinese people to win national independence, hence making a his toricleap in the development of Marxist view of human rights.
