Marx’s Critical View

Criticalness,running through all aspects of Marxist philosophy,is a profound reflection model and is also the source of vitality of Marxist philosophy.At present,most of the academic circles focus on criticizing the specific objects,such as religious criticism,political criticism,economic criticism and modernity criticism,and have made many important achievements.However,the importance of the form of “criticism” itself is relatively neglected behind the critical object.This article explores the form of "criticism" and will be specifically developed by implementing Marx’s critical view.Marx’s theoretical exploration has a corresponding historical background and theoretical origin,and his critical view is benefited from the criticism and absorption of Kant and Hegel’s critical views.Kant established the limits of human reason and established self-reflection as the essence of the subject,which is undoubtedly progressive.However,Kant believed that the different factor was the external confrontation,and the external relationship can negatively set boundaries only.How the rationality and its activities develop has not received positive revelation and norms.Hegel recognized the error of Kant’s external criticism.He always adhered to the idea of "logical priority" and based on the "dialectics of internal relations",advocated that criticism is no longer a criticism of the subject’s external object,but a kind of dialectical movement that the things realize themselves.However,the establishment of an idealism building centered on the "absolute spirit" will ultimately be unreliable,as the theory itself ignores the important significance of objective existence.In view of this,this article will deeply explore the essential provisions of Marx’s critical view from two aspects.First of all,starting from the meaning of criticism that is most easily reminiscent,namely negation,the irrationality and limitations of the criticized object shall be criticized,boldly eliminating and abolishing irrational and old elements,so as to make the criticized object more vital and lasting.The author grasps the negative object of Marxist philosophy as a whole,and reflects on the ontological basis of "negation",revealing that practice is the real basis of criticism and the freedom of human being constitutes the internal motivation of criticism.As the freedom is limited to subjectivity,in order to explain how subjectivity can grasp objective,we must further penetrate into the inherent contradictions of things,reveal the essence of negation is self-negation,and also the unity of affirmation and negation.Criticism is not just a simple negation.It should,in combination with the viewpoint of the practice of Marxist philosophy,get the grasp of that practice is the unity of affirmation and negation that occurs in reality.The practical character itself determines that Marx cannot stay in the concept of practice itself,but the practicality should be specifically developed into social history,from which we can completely reveal the second essence of Marx’s critical view,that is,criticism is established as the unity of affirmation and negation.Marx always adopted a critical attitude towards the real world and his critical views involved some methodological issues: internal criticism and external criticism,criticism of others and self-criticism.After research,Marx’s criticism is a true grasp of human practice-overall survival and always adheres to the dialectical unity of "inner criticism" and "outer criticism","criticism of others" and "self-criticism".If and only if Marx takes a close look at his own philosophy and obtains a solid and effective interpretation of the world,can he realize the “transformation of the world” in the true sense.
