On the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day on September 2, the National Political Publishing House Truth has just introduced to readers the book August Revolution in 1945 in Vietnam: When the entire nation is determined to "strengthen our strength to liberate ourselves" by Prof. Dr. Pham Hong Tung edited.
The book focuses on systematically, comprehensively and in depth analyzing the basic historical contents of the August Revolution: the situation of Vietnam under the domination of the French colonialists and the Japanese army; the new guidelines and strategies of the Indochinese Communist Party, the birth of the Viet Minh Front to lead and organize the development of the revolutionary movement; the attitude of the Allied countries towards Indochina before March 9, 1945; the coup d'etat of the Japanese army (March 9, 1945) and political changes in Vietnam as well as the leaping development of the patriotic and revolutionary movement in Vietnam; the process of winning tens of millions of Vietnamese people to unite "let our own strength to liberate ourselves" under the leadership of the Party, the Vietnamese Front and President Ho Chi Minh Minh, the special state of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam; the historical and historical highlight of the Ninth and Third lunar Revolution.
According to the Truth National Political Publishing House, through the work, the author drew a series of important conclusions with profound theoretical and practical values. The author has clearly proven that the August Revolution of 1945 was a historical process of profound nationalism, democracy and typical humanity. It is the most concentrated symbol of will, aspiration, intelligence and the noble cultural values of Vietnam. Because:
Firstly, the August Revolution of 1945 was the pinnacle of the entire struggle for independence, freedom, national unity, democracy and social progress that the Vietnamese people have persistently and bravely carried out continuously throughout the period from 1858 to 1945.
Second, the August Revolution of 1945 was the result of the great rise of the entire Vietnamese nation under the wise and talented leadership of the Indochinese Communist Party and leader Ho Chi Minh.
Third, the victory of the August Revolution in 1945 was the result of the smooth impact between subjective and objective factors, in which the subjective factor played the most decisive role.
Fourth, considering the development form, the victory of the August Revolution is the result of the smooth combination of struggles in political, military, cultural and diplomatic fields; between the struggles in urban areas and in rural areas of all classes and classes, in which the working people play the most important role.
Fifth, although the General Uprising for power took place in each locality in various forms and with different paths, the August Revolution of 1945 was basically a unified historical process nationwide in its main characteristics and trends.
Sixth, although the August Revolution of 1945 won basic and great victories, there are still some tasks that must be continued to be completed in the later revolutionary stages.
At the same time, this research work also contributes to affirming the sustainable value of the great national unity ideology, of the national independence guidelines associated with the most progressive trends of the times. Those are the invaluable heritages that our Party, President Ho Chi Minh and our people have left for our nation today and tomorrow.
