First part outspreads exposition around the achievement of Marx's political ideas. We should put the political ideas above the relationship between the State and civil Society, which is the understanding of human's free realization. The conception of civil Society was born in Aristotle of ancient Greek firstly. Civil Society and the nations are highly integrated in the classical age, while they are separating in the modern time. Hegel had analyzed the conception of civil Society exhaustively and had made idealistic interpretations on the relationship between the State and civil Society in his writing of"the principle of lawful philosophy". From idealistic national view that the nation decides the civil society to the conflict of various benefits in the process of social practice in which the nation and law become the tool of seeking individual interest, Marx gets rid of the puzzle after reading Feedback's two short written works about philosophies. Finding the key to the development of human history ought in the civil Society rather than in the nation lying on the top of the mansion. Hence Marx researched theoretical work overall surrounding with the conception of civil Society.Studying the world history and the political and political economic works , Marx understood the essence of the Ownership, the Class Question, the representative system and the people sovereignty and was aware of the important role about the ownership of property and ownership deciding the nature of superstructure."In the 1844 manuscripts", Marx through analysis of capitalism society labor alienation, saw the opposition between labor and capital, and the opposition to the opposite extreme, it is the whole social relations vertex, here is pregnant with a pair of contradiction, namely productivity and production relations of conflict."In the Holy Family", Marx established that social being determines the social consciousness of historical materialism viewpoint by criticizing subjective idealism of the Powell etc. Marx concluded that the historical development is created by the people.

Liszt works'national system of political economics'", Marx criticized the Liszt idealist understanding of productivity, and expounded the meanwhile as productivity and relations of production of the connotation of two layers of industrial production. Marx pointed out of capitalist production relations discourages the development of productive forces. Of course, for the Marx did not named this conception of production relations, but using "exchange value" and "private ownership" substituting it,In"The German ideology", Marx finally gave the conception of civil society. For the conception,Marx expressed:"communication form that is restricted by productivity and also restricts productivity in historical stage in the past is civil society."The civil society is the birth place and a stage of all of history. Marx's conception of civil society provides deep theoretical foil for historical materialism. With the presentation of civil society's conception, means the birth of Marx historical materialism and production of society's organic structure .Based on the conception of civil society, Marx can explain religious alienation and political alienation and economy alienation with historical materialism.In the second part, discussing Feuerbach humanism alienation influencing Marx in the process of Marx's civil society conception and transformation of Marx philosophy after birth of Marx's conception of civil society.
