The key to socialism is simple. It's almost a naive formula, but, suppose after an inevitable armed struggle between the communist party and bourgeois state the communists are victorious at establishing a proletarian dictatorship, and now how to wrestle with heightened class struggle.
Trotsky's solution is that the communist republic should continue waging a war till the world is communist or the republic is dismantled. We saw that this was a mistake in the Brest-Litovsk crisis.
Stalin's solution is to strengthen the republic beforehand for the upcoming final battle against the imperialists, and this was the correct policy (compared to Trotsky) but Stalin made a mistake in thinking that socialism can be forced and a revolutionary break with the old mode of production is needed (just like seizing state power). This was, of course, a mistake, because you cannot establish the superstructure, the mores of socialist society, in one generation. There must be, after the communist republic is established and primitive socialist production is organized, a time where socialism must become a really real thing inside people's heads.
Hence Bukharin's Way to Socialism. We see how a Chinese version of this idea is currently playing out. You allow socialism as something really real to settle in while the communist republic, having seized state power in a violent struggle, reforms the very same republic towards a more advanced socialism.
Wrong. Stalin made no mistakes. Under Stalinist political economy, the kulak and capitalists were exterminated and the collective was built, establishing material base for Communist production. An essential condition for the success of socialist construction in the U.S.S.R. was the routing of the Trotskyist and Bukharinist restorers of capitalism, who propounded theories calculated to disarm the working class, to the effect that the construction of socialism in one country was impossible, and that Russia was “not ripe” for socialism because of her technical and economical backwardness. The Communist Party won its fight for the industrialisation of the country in battle against the worst enemies of socialism, the Trotskyists and Bukharinists, who opposed to the Party’s general line of industrialising the country the line of converting the Soviet Union into an agrarian appendage of imperialist countries and tried to deflect the U.S.S.R. on to a capitalist path of development. Bukharin and Deng political economy is nothing alike. Bukharin wanted to enrich the kulaks and impoverish the workers. The victory of the collective farm system was won in decisive struggle against the exploiting classes and their Trotskyist and Bukharinist agents, who defended the kulaks in every possible way, combated the creation of collective and State farms and demanded the dissolution and abolition of the existing collective and State farms. The Communist Party routed the Trotskyist line of the exploitation and forcible expropriation of the peasantry by means of high prices for industrial goods and excessive taxes, and also the right-opportunist Bukharinist theory of the “peaceful growing of the kulaks into socialism”, and of “letting things develop themselves in economic construction. Dengist political economy was the final nail in the coffin of exploiting class in Communist China.

The establishment of socialism as a given in peoppess head is the superstructure, can only rose up out of real socialist production as you said, and thus can only happen by abolishing capitalist relations of production.
