Abstract: From the perspective of Marxism, the whole process of people's democracy has experienced its own theoretical evolution. Marx and Engels pointed out that bourgeois democracy belongs to limited democracy, while the new democracy replacing the old one should run through the whole process of political, economic and social life. Lenin created Soviet democracy in the process of leading the Russian revolution, and organically combined the leadership of the Party with the construction of Soviet democracy. The Communist Party of China has inherited the Marxist democratic theory, put democracy through political parties, politics, economy and society, and created people's democracy in the whole process. The whole process of people's democracy is a kind of compound democracy, which cannot be realized without the leadership of the Party. It is necessary to organically combine the leadership of the Party and people's democracy.

Key words: people's democracy in the whole process, Marxism, People's democracy
