| Time is an important category in Marx’s theoretical system,which runs through the development of his thoughts.To fully grasp Marx’s theory of time,it is necessary to not only deeply cultivate the classic works to clarify their theoretical logic,but also return to reality to activate the contemporary value of the theory.Following this line of thought,The full text is divided into four parts:The first part mainly introduces the formation background and process of Marx’s time theory.Marx was in an era of rapid rise in capitalism.The unlimited deprivation of time by the capitalist mode of production and the struggle between the proletariat and the bourgeoisie around the workday prompted Marx to study the issue of time in depth;The discussions on the issue of time in the history of Western philosophy,both objective and internal,have provided ideological references for the formation of Marx’s theory of time.The response to the problems of the times and the sublation of previous thoughts have undergone a process of germination,formation,development,and maturity in Marx’s ideological process,gradually forming a scientific understanding of time.The second part focuses on the internal logic of Marx’s time theory,explaining its main content.Marx based his understanding of time on realistic people and their practice,and revolutionized the concept of time from a philosophical perspective.On this basis,Marx saw the alienation of human existence in the real society,and the commodity currency capital governing logic made the relationship between people hidden under the relationship between things.Marx deeply analyzed the production mechanism of capitalist society,revealing the secrets of capitalism’s production to obtain surplus value and the tragic situation of workers’ living and working time being squeezed.Through his criticism of capitalism,Marx further clarified the direct relationship between time and human survival,development,and freedom,and creatively proposed the concept of free time.The creation and enjoyment of free time is a realistic way to achieve the free and comprehensive development of human beings and achieve human liberation,which has become the value goal of Marx’s time theory.The third part summarizes the characteristics and significant historical significance of Marx’s time theory that are completely different from previous time theories.Marx’s time theory is the unity of subjectivity and objectivity,Scientificity and value,criticism and constructiveness.It has achieved a great transformation of traditional time theory;Is an important clue to understanding historical materialism and surplus value theory;And has established for us an important yardstick for measuring the development of human society and human liberation.The last part focuses on the activation of the contemporary value of Marx’s time theory.Compared with Marx’s era,the exploitation of time by contemporary capitalism presents new characteristics,but its essence has not changed;While socialism is still in its infancy,a series of time issues still exist objectively.Marx’s theory of time is still present.On the one hand,it helps us correctly understand the social nature of contemporary capitalism and awaken the revolutionary consciousness of the working class.On the other hand,it provides guidance for the construction of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.Specifically,it is to adhere to the principle of taking the people as the center and ensuring the people’s dominant position in time;Second,vigorously develop productivity and save labor time;Third,improve the socialist system to ensure free time generation;Finally,strengthen the construction of spiritual civilization and transform the existence of time. |
