抗战结束后,随着内战的不断升级,在民主人士内部曾经就“第三方面”或“中间派”的地位与作用展开了一场有关“中间路线”的大论战。论战的双方围绕国共之外是否存在“第三方面”或“中间路线”,“中间阶层”或“中间派”是否应有自己的政治主张与态度,以及政协路线是否就是中间路线等几个问题阐述了各自的看法。虽然严峻的形势证明了中间路线的失败,但论战本身却产生了积极的影响。 After the war ended, as the civil war continued to escalate, there was a grand debate among Democrats about the “third line” or “centrist” position and role. Whether the “two sides of the debate” should have their own political opinions and attitudes around the “Kuomintang” or “the middle route” or whether “the middle class” or the “centrist” should exist and whether the CPPCC line is the middle route or not Their own views. Although the severe situation proved the failure of the middle route, the controversy itself had a positive impact.
