| The twenty-first century witnesses the entry of human beings into an era of science and technology flourishing as well as economy developing at a high speed. But, the high-speed development of economy and science technology does not mean true and overall progress of human beings, who are be set by environmental problems, population problems and cultural conflicts; the ideal perished, the belief lost, the value confused, as a result, we lost our spiritual homeland. The modern times witness the unprecedented historical difficulties and spiritual crisis that human beings have encountered in their existence and development, which highlights the problems of human beings and their destiny to an unprecedented height. How to model contemporary humanism comes forward as a key issue and hotspot problem of socialist market economy, it is also an issue of realistic and theoretical implications of great importance. The thesis is divided into six parts, the main thoughts and theoretical logics are as below:Introduction problems put forward: In the context of the heated discussion over the humanistic crisis, this outstanding philosophical subject is put forward as well as the realistic and theoretical implications of modeling contemporary humanism are elucidated. Chapter One Humanism and its evolution process: Combining theories with the history, this chapter semantically explores and defines the concept of humanism, explains the basic implications of the contemporary humanism.
