The Theory Of Marxist Social And History Progress Research

The progress of the social history is both an old problem and a new one.With the issue of globalization is increasingly prominent at present,the social and historical progress comes across many new situations and new problems,and meets many new challenges.With the situation that people’s faith in the social and historical progress has fallen into chaos and confusion,it’s an urgent theoretical issue for us to reconstruct a new form of the social and history view to adapt to this new era.The Marxist social and history progress view,based on the scientific theory of history,reveals the deep roots and realistic conditions of the human society,providing the theoretical guidance for our current modernization and the progress of the whole human society.This text mainly collects those ideas of the social historical progress of the classic Marxist writers’,clarifies the logic and contents of those thoughts,and systematically reconstructs the Marxist social and historical progress vies,which contribute to the construction of the Marxism history view research.Following the points above,this paper mainly carries out the following research:The first chapter is on the concept of social historical progress.This chapter mainly analyzes the relevant concepts of the social history progress and provides methodological guidance and boundary clarification for the correct understanding of the social history progress.Firstly,the article expounds the basic connotation and attributes of the concept of "progress",pointing out that the "Progress" refers to a trend or fact of achieving a better goal or a higher state.Secondly,the article distinguishes the concept of progress from that of setback,evolution,and development,therefore analyzes the relationship between the progress of the social history and the social development,pointing out that the use of the concept of "social history progress" is correct and rational in the factual description and the value judgment of the overall human development process.The second chapter is on the tracing-back of the historical progressive thoughts.This chapter combs up the basic contexts of the concept of the modern social progress,generalizes its contents and its theoretical defects,making a foundation for the expansion of the Marxist social history progress.The article examines the germination,formation,establishment,and development of the progress thoughts in modern Europe,pointing out that the concept of modern social progress is basically the overall grasp and representation of the real human life since the born of bourgeois.Hence,the article sums up the basic contents of the modern social progress and its theoretical defects,and points out that the modern social progress thoughts,supported by rationalism,soaked with optimism,expressed in form of scientific progress,aim at an "extremely good" society system as the highest goal,but gradually die out because of their abstraction and historical limitations.The third chapter is on the basic thoughts of the Marxist social history progress view.The paper firstly explores the theoretical foundation of the concept of social history progress,points out that historical materialism is the theoretical foundation and guidance for the Marxist social and historical progress,that "practice" is the core of understandingthe social and historical progress,that people’s development is the fundamental value orientation of the social and historical progress,and that the social development view on the basis of the scientific history view has realized the dialectical unification between the scientific understanding of the social history and the development of human beings.Secondly,the paper elaborates the concept of social and historical progress in aspects ofthe basic connotation of the social history progress,of its main performance,and of the way and the trend of its progress,pointing out that the establishment of the communist system and people’s all-round and free development are the direction and the determined trend of the progress of human history.Finally,the paper discusses of the revolutionary character of the concept of the Marxist social historical progress,pointing out that the Marxist concept of social progress rests the progress of human society and history on the people’s own revolution,and rests the hope of the progress of human society and history on the people’s mind change,the increase of their survival capability,and the self-consciousness of their activities.The fourth chapter is on the measurement of the social and historical progress.The article firstly discusses of the scale of productivity,pointing out that productivity is the externalization of human essential power,that the productivity progress and the human development are consistent in essence,that the movement of productivity fundamentally influences and determines the progress in other fields of social life,and that productivity is the fundamental measure or scale of the historical progress.Secondly,the article discusses of the human development scale,indicating that the social historical progress and the human development are inherently consistent,and that the human development is an important scale to measure up the progress of the social history.Thirdly,the article discusses of the civilization scale,pointing out that the category of civilization represents the extent of the civilization and evolution of the mankind himself,which is essentially the reflection and embodiment of the productive forces.The paper declares Civilization,representing the development and progress of social history,is an important measure to judge the progress of social history.Finally,the article discusses of the communication scale,pointing out that the communication activity is the basic way of human existence and activities,and that the change of the way of human communication is an important scale to measure up the progress of the social history.The fifth chapter is on the dynamic and the law of the social historical progress.This chapter mainly discusses of the power system of the social and historical progress,pointing out that the progress of the society and history is a constantly extending process of human practice,and that practice is the ultimate power of the social and historical progress.The paper indicates that the movement of the basic social conflicts is the fundamental impetus of the society progress,that the Class Struggle is the direct driving forces to promote the progress of the social history,that science and technology are the important driving forces to push forward the progress of the social history,and that the masses are the main driving forces for the social and historical progress.In addition,this chapter also outlines the basic laws of the social history progress,which consist of the law of the harmony of man and nature,that of the unity of practice accumulation and innovation,that of "no fights,no progress",that of the leading value of human choices,and that of the unity of being faltering and being forward.The sixth chapter is on the cost of the social progress.This chapter firstly expounds the relation between the social and historical progress and the cost,pointing out that a history of the human civilization is also one of human costs,and that the cost of the social history is an important aspect of the social and historical progress.Secondly,this chapter combs up Marx and Engels’s basic thoughts of the cost at the social and historical development,and discusses of the causes for the historical cost and its role in the social and historical progress.On this basis,the paper reveals the classical Marxist writers’attitudes towards the social and historical progress cost,and their methods to overcome this difficulty.The seventh chapter is on the theoretical value and practical significance of Marxist theory on the social and historical progress.On the theoretical level,the Marxist social history progress view realizes the revolutionary change of the social progress view.As the new form of the social historical progress view,it provides guidance for the human social history progress.On the realistic level,the Marxist social historical progress view provides the theoretical coordinate for the evaluation of China’s socialist modernization,exhibits a realistic way to correct the increasing social problems in China,and indicates the direction to overcome the "globalization crisis" and realize the progress of human social history.
