| In the world where the Communist movement has undergone a series of constant upsurge and suffered major setbacks for the time being but still continues to develop further, there is the coexistence of capitalist system and existing socialist countries both of which develop almost simultaneously into the new prosperity and present each new characteristics. Looking through the current world, human alienation is not only reflected in the alienation of materials, but also in the spiritual world of human beings. Alienation has penetrated into all levels of human beings and shows a strong feature of concealment and imperceptibility. It not only changes the form of direct conflict between labor and capital, but also gradually deprives the proletariat of their own class consciousness by invisible and soften forms of rational persuasion, suspended value and so on, hindering the transcendence of their own alienation and the realization of spiritual liberation.Undoubtedly, human alienation affects the understanding and application of Marxism.Throughout the study of alienated labor and human beings’ liberation by Marx, on the basis of the theoretical achievements of predecessors, Marx profoundly analyzes the basis of capitalist system and social reality by means of New Materialism, testifies that alienated labor is the product of private ownership, and proves that the existence of alienated labor will inevitably lead to the demise of capitalist private ownership. As one of the necessary links and also the important content of human liberation, the liberation of human spirit from epistemology has a decisive or critical role on the transformation of the real world by human beings and the achievement of human liberation. Only in this way will the elimination of labor alienation be associated with the liberation of humans and united in the great Communist movement. In the meantime, the liberation of the human spirit as a result of the material practice of people in the real world not only changes human’s spiritual world to promote people’s profound understanding of the real world, but also helps achieve a better transformation of the real world, create favorable conditions for the full liberation of people, and ultimately realize human liberation with the thought or spirit more in line with the objective reality.Marxism itself is a continuously developing theory, so does the changing reality problems Marxism is dealing with. In this regard, in the face of real life, especially in the face of the emerging new situations and new problems of capitalism and the setbacks and lows of the Communist movement that have emerged since the birth of Marxism, we must not only strengthen the common ideals of socialism with Chinese characteristics,hold firmly the lofty ideals of communism, and continue to develop our productive forces,but also continuously develop the theory of Marxism and emancipate the mind to promote the liberation of human spirit on the basis of in-depth understanding of Marxist fundamental spirit. Through understanding and transforming the world, human beings will obtain independence and freedom from both the whole of nature and the human alienation resulted from private ownership, which will truly brings about the entire realization of human liberation. |
