Marx’s philosophical thinking originated from the relationship between theory and practice,which made him pay attention to the contradiction between national rationality and private interests,and then discovered from the criticism of Hegel’s philosophy of law that the so-called modern state is not only separated from civil society but also It ruled,which led to the opposition between the "bourgeoisie" and the "proletariat".Attention and criticism of labor is the key to the development of the concept of "proletariat".With the in-depth study of capitalist society,Marx gradually shifted from "alienated labor" to "hired labor",and from humanistic philosophy to political economic critique.He believes that the fundamental difference between modern capitalist society and traditional society is that it has experienced a bourgeois political revolution.The connotation of the revolution is the rule of the bourgeoisie,manifested in the division of labor or private ownership.The "proletariat" must have both the construction of a political revolution and the destruction of itself by the social revolution.From the beginning of the struggle for workers’ rights,to the formation of self-contained classes,from the nature of capital exploitation and the inevitable crisis of capitalist society,to the historical development of communist society,Marx constructively put forward the principle of communism,that is,the elimination of private ownership.The "proletariat" has always been the subject of content throughout the above,from historical occurrence to subject construction,and then to value implication.The development of its concept conforms to the theoretical logic of historical materialism and reproduces Marx’s lifelong pursuit of value.The background to discuss the modern meaning of the concept of "proletariat" is based on the current development of digital economy and digital capital,the status quo of landscape society and capital blessing,the arrival of the information age and artificial intelligence,which has led to global laborers falling into overwork and over consumption.And the plight of relative poverty.In capitalist countries,the "proletariat" exists in a new form and face;in China,which has undergone the baptism of revolution,the "proletariat" has long been transformed from a class with nothing to a "working class" that is the master of the house.It still retains the advanced,revolutionary,and disciplined nature of the "proletariat".These outstanding qualities are the value guidance of our working class in the great struggle against the bourgeoisie of the world.
