Study On Marx’s Theory Of Division Of Labor

Division of labor is an important part of social life and plays an important role in the process of promoting historical development.From ancient Greek philosophers,national economists to Marxists,the issue of division of labor has been widely discussed.From gender division and regional division of labor in primitive society to international division of labor in the context of globalization,division of labor is the basic form of social production and exists in various social forms.Therefore,the history of division of labor is also the history of human society.Marx’s theory of division of labor reveals the development process from natural division of labor to social division of labor and describes the current situation and development trend of division of labor.From the perspective of all-round development of human beings,he dialectically looked at the promoting role and negative influence of capitalist division of labor,emphatically analyzed the relationship between division of labor and alienation,mechanization,specialization and Professionalization under capitalist private ownership,It came to the conclusion that the division of labor leads to alienation and hinders the overall development of human beings.Spontaneous division of labor and the sublation of spontaneous division of labor go the same way.On the one hand,spontaneous division of labor was needed for development;on the other hand,spontaneous division of labor needs to be eliminated for development.Under the private ownership,the disorder of capitalist production socialization and the orderly division of labor within the factory become an irreconcilable contradiction,so the spontaneous division of labor of capital will be doomed.However,spontaneous division of labor is an inevitable stage in the development of division of labor.Only by creating huge productive forces and class conditions,can division of labor itself be eliminated.Only then can labor,the essence of division of labor,really become the means and purpose to liberate human beings,Only in this way,can human beings possess the essence of class and realize all-round development.This paper focuses on the evolution process,basic content,theoretical characteristics and status of Marx’s theory of division of labor,as well as the purpose of value.The first chapter mainly introduces the background and research significance of the topic,expresses the research status of scholars at home and abroad,and introduces the writing ideas and methods of this paper as a whole.The second chapter mainly sorts out the historical evolution and theoretical origin of the theory of division of labor.Marx paid attention to the historical fact that the division of labor developed from natural form to social form.He gradually formed his own theory of division of labor in the process of criticizing and inheriting the previous thought of division of labor,and in the process of social investigation of capitalist production situation and labor relations.It contains sympathy for the poor workers and concern for the all-round development of human beings.The third chapter mainly analyzes the evolution process and basic content of Marx’s theory of division of labor.The essence of division of labor is labor,which has the dual attributes of productivity and production relations.Spontaneous division of labor,as the product of division of labor,has its inevitability.However,this division of labor regards people as the tool of producing wealth rather than the purpose,which hinders people’s all-round development.The evolution of Marx’s theory of division of labor is the process of deepening the study of division of labor.The process starts from criticizing alienation,then studies the problems of class differentiation and professionalization caused by division of labor,and finally studies the irreconcilable contradiction between the division of labor within the factory and the division of labor within the society.In studying the relationship between spontaneous division of labor and private ownership,"big machine production" and its capital accumulation,Marx found a realistic way to sublate spontaneous division of labor.The fourth chapter mainly introduces the distinctive characteristics of Mark’s theory of division of labor.The formation of Marx’s theory of division of labor is not only a process of critical inheritance,but also a process of self-denial.The history of division of labor is the history of ownership.The division of labor in different times has different characteristics and functions.Division of labor,as a form of labor,runs through the history of human social development.Marx’s theory of division of labor adheres to the objective evaluation of the characteristics and functions of division of labor in the specific historical background with historical materialism,which has distinct historicity,practicality and dialectics.In the process of studying the division of labor,Marx also realized self-revolution and transcended the previous division of labor theory,which promoted the formation and development of historical materialism.The fifth chapter mainly studies the contemporary value of Marx’s theory of division of labor.The history of division of labor is also the history of human civilization,so the study of division of labor is never out of date.Marx’s theory of division of labor is concerned about the development of individual and the realization of equality in the process of social development.It also provides a correct way to deal with the process of human development.In addition,Marx’s thought of human’s all-round development and the connotation of freedom and equality contained in the division of labor is of great value to solve the problems of contemporary occupation solidification and homogenization of product and human development.Marx’s theory of division of labor takes people’s Liberation and all-round development as the highest value goal from a unique perspective,and answers the questions of whether there is division of labor under the Communist state,whether it constitutes alienation,and to what extent and how people are liberated.I hope that through this study,we can make a modest contribution to the realization of people’s Liberation and all-round development!...
