Marx's Theory Of Needs And The Contemporary Construction Of A Better Life

The report of the 19 th National Congress points out that the contradiction between the people’s growing need for a better life and the unbalanced and inadequate development has risen into the main contradiction of our country.At this time,the rapid development of human needs and understanding the needs based on the reality of society is of vital importance to building a better life.At the same time,China’s basic national conditions have not changed,and it is still a developing country.To a certain extent,it will hinder the development and improvement of human needs,and it is also affected by the logic of capital.The phenomenon of alienation in our country is getting worse.The thesis is mainly guided by Marx’s theory of needs,based on realistic thinking on how to further improve people’s living standards and quality of life in the development.This has a certain theoretical and practical significance to eliminate the phenomenon of alienation and better meet the people’s needs for a better life.So this thesis starts with Marx’s exposition on the alienation of need and its new development,and sorts out Marx’s need alienation thought from the original work.After taking Marcuse as an example,the study of Marxism in the modern capitalist field of view needs theoretical research results and evaluates it.Then,after analysis and comparison,it was found that because Marcuse’s "false need" theory has greater limitations,the solution of the need for alienation is not feasible in practice.Therefore,we should go back to Marx’s theory of need to find people’s essential needs,comprehensively summarize the basic content of needs,analyze the essential needs of people and the conditions for the return and satisfaction of human essential needs.Finally,under the view of Marx’s theory of needs,we look at the changes in people’s needs from the new changes of our country’s contradictions,study the beautiful life that our country wants to build,analyze the needs of people in real life,and discuss how to meet the needs of the people and resolve the alienation problems that exist.Using Marx’s needs theory to guide the construction of a better life in China is conducive to solving problems that arise in society,meeting people’s reasonable needs,and promoting the development of needs,thereby building a better life that contemporary people seek.
