Arent creatively indicated the motion way of human's essence on the basis of understanding Marxist theory of labor and divided human being's activities into three basic styles:labor,work,action,pointing out labor is unnatural activity which is restricted by nature and free action is human being's essential manifestation.Arent and Marx have different views towards labor,since actually they have different philosophy starting points. In modern society, the developed division of labor and the production automation will make Arent treat labor using fission between thing and people as well as Nihilism,meanwhile, Arent insisted that the differences among labor,work,action in Ontology shuldn't be cleared up,influnced by Aristotle and Heidegger; Marx's labor concept comes from Hegel's interaction and the object diagnostic method,so Marx could Fusion "Human and natural metabolism"," production activity" and "self-mold free activity" into human's object activity _labor.But two theories are not entirely opposed to each hother,as the subverter's theory preinstall of of thinking and doing,two theories are both influnenced by World material characteristic, the essential spirit is criticizing the time survival difficult position.The thesis systematically constractes Marxist labor view to Arent action view,we have found Arent's thought of action view is unique,to criticize labor is actually to criticize frivolity and worldliness produced by labor,but because of lacking of understanding Marxist labor view totally,ignoring the historicity of Marx thought,Arent's view of labor is theoretical flaw inevitably.But on the other hand,undoubtedly there is positive enlightenment significance for Arent action view to reunderstand and develop Marxist labor view,considering Marxist labor view and Arent action view as theory entrance, thinking deeply about modern people's survival circumstances and the life modus positively,which will be helpful in researching society and culture fundamental research in in contemporary sight,will provide theory support and instruction for contemporary China's characteristic socialism practice.
