The Generation Of Anthropological Philosophy Thought Paradigm

The modernity of Marxist philosophy can be understood from a variety of angles,and this dissertation is to mainly elaborate on the essence of Marxist philosophy fromthe anthropological paradigm. This is directly related to the two aspects of Marxistphilosophy, namely, the object of anthropological thinking and the ways ofanthropological thinking,which will be dealt with in detail in this dissertation. Againstthe background of the whole western philosophy, especially German classicalphilosophy, this dissertation traces the theoretical origins of Marxist anthropologicalphilosophy and elaborates on its connotation,its way of thinking and its effect oncontemporary philosophy.This paper first deals with the sources of Marxist anthropological thoughtparadigm. The conflict between anthropology and metaphysics in German classicalphilosophy is served as a potential clue of this disseration.The contradiction betweenthe content and way of thinking of anthropology and German classical philosophy haspushed forward the development of later philosophy.As a rebel to German classicalphilosophy, non-mainstream philosophy starts directly from the human perceptual lifeand requires anthropology as the basis of philosophy; young Hagelians requires thatphilosophy should be comprehended from the person.However, the contradictionbetween anthropology and subjects of metaphysics has not been properly resolvedbecause of the non-rational metaphysics and the aesthetic way of thinking innon-mainstream philosophy and the young Hagelian’s theory of abstract people.Marx resolves this contradiction through the labor practice. The subject isdefined as a limitation in accordance with the specific description of practice in acertain historical stage.So the possibility of establishing metaphysics is completelyeradicated in the field of social history,and there is an inherent unity between thelimited subject and anthropology.Therefore, the historical method and anthropology、dialectics are united intrinsic, thus resolving the contradiction between the philosophybasis and methodology and completely changing the object and the way of thinking of philosophy. At this point, this paper argues that Marx opens the door ofcontemporary philosophy and turns to the real life, and this is not only the object butalso the way of thinking. Marxist philosophy is characterized by regarding people’srealistic material production as the basis of the overall social life and describing itsoperation, which enters the life world in the process of this transition. That is, Marxistphilosphy is endowed with obvious superiority and rationality.After Marxist philosophy, there has appeared a trend of returning to life-world incontemporary western philosophy, which opens the door of the life-world through theexperience, language and cultural activities.Therefore,the distinction between Marxistphilosophy and contemporary western philosophy is very obvious. However, in theview of anthropological way of thinking,they are not contradictory with each other.They all stand on the human perceptual activity to oppose the SubjectiveMetaphysics and turn to human realistic life-world. So it requires a“reasonable”basis to dialogue between the contemporary western philosophy and Marxistphilosophy.By elaborating on the sources, connotations and contemporary effects of Marxistanthropological thinking paradigm, this dissertation holds that Marxistanthropological thought paradigm enjoys a time-honored tradition the world over andhas a solid theoretical foundation,and that is the true spirit of philosophy. It can beargued that Marx was the first contemporary philosopher to deal with this thoughtin a systematical way;however,there are obvious differences between Marxistphilosophy and contemporary philosophy.
