It is different from the past theories totally, it is the spirit of the times and characterization from the methodology, from the values, purpose and innovation on all degrees.The second chapter is the basic contents of Marx's social critique theory. The social theory, the socio-economic theory and the social main body theory consist of the whole parts of Marx's social critique theory. It realizes the basic construction Marx's social critique theory. Marx begins his critique first from the religion, in the process of religious critique, he see the extreme importance of the philosophy critique, in the philosophy critiques, Marx draws the conclusion that he must begin to study the practical problems.

Marx finds the reality existence of human being first time in the social history, especially the people's existence. In the vision of social criticism, Marx thinks the people who are continuing their practice constantly creating their own history and liberation themselves.Chapter III discusses the characteristics and methods of Marx's social critique theory. There are five basic characteristics. Firstly, the thoroughness, Marx's social critique theory realizes the combination of dialectics logic and historical materialism, and shows its criticism of the old world, it goes beyond the old doctrine, subverts the old system, creats the new society; Second, the class characteristics, the thoroughness of Marx's social critique theory is loaded on the proletariat, it demonstrates the target value of the proletariat and the broad masses with a distinctive class characteristics; third, the practical characteristics, the proletariat is the most revolutionary force in history, and its mission is to have a thorough critical theory of society in implementing the social and historical activities, it realizes the subversion of the old system and creats a new world in order to show the practical characteristics of Marx's social critique theory; Four, the integrity.

They are rational criticism method, alienation critical method, dialectical criticism method, practical criticism method and self-criticism method. Marx's social critique theory is a through methodology. It goes through from simple to complex, from immature to mature, from the initial pose to the development of self-transcendence process. The rational criticism method is the theory instrument of original theory for Karl Marx. the alienation critical method is the theory instrument in Marx's critical stage for society Critique. They are immature methods in the immature stage, but it's a reflection of Marx's development thought, it has an extremely important position in the course of Marx's Social Critique. The practical criticism method and the dialectical criticism method are condensed the core of dialectics and historical materialism that marking Marx's social critique theory embarked on the path of scientific development, it's a milestone for the mature of Marx's social critique theory which laid the foundation stone of its systemic composition. The self-critical method which is summarized and used stands the exceeding of Marx's social critique theory beyond the realm of himself.Chapter IV deals with the development and departure of the western Marxism critical theory to Marx's social critique theory. It is very obvious that the various schools of Western Marxism in the social critique has a transceiver and inheritance relation with Marx's social critique theory, it is the extension of Marx's social critique theory, it has an great social sffects in the history. The development of western Marxism critical theory for Marx's social critique theory is mainly embodied in the spirit of the tradition of social critique and the methods of social critique. Among them, the critical spirit directly demonstrates the heritage relationship between the western Marxism critical theory and Marx's social critique theory. At the same time, the western Marxist critical theory takes a departure way from Marx's social critique theory. Generally speaking, nearly all the theory which constitutes Marx's social critique theory are accused and criticized by western Marxism social critical theory, but it mainly concentrated on the social and historical determinism, social history, social and historical theories.The fifth chapter discusses the modern value of Marx's social critique theory.
