Although "the cycle of civilization theory", the "endof history" and "the clash of civilizations" have a huge influence on Western society and the world,they research the civilizations based on the human nature, determinism and even on the God,which makes them lost in the determinism. Marxist theory of civilization achieves profoundchanges and great leap in the history of human civilization, which is because the Marxisminherites and goes beyond historical human civilization in thinking method, basic concept, basicconcept and so on.
