Marx’s dialectics of labor not only represents Marx’s own philosophical thinking,but also responds to contemporary society issues.The rule of capital logic has not given people true freedom in the new stage of capitalism’s global development but has kept them in constant crisis.Faced with such a reality,it is necessary to return to Marx’s dialectics of labor,which has a profound understanding of the universality and the particularity of human society’s historical evolution law.Thinking about Marx’s dialectics of labor will provide us with a picture of human liberation under the rule of capital logic.Marx’s dialectics of labor realizes the dual revolution of “philosophy-economics”.Marx revealed classical political economy’s “upside-down category system,” and the exploitation relationship between people concealed by economic category was exposed.Marx injected the true content of “being” into dialectics with the internal contradiction of “labor”.By firmly grasping the realistic social relations arising from the polar opposite relationship between capital and labor,and understanding these relations in the true historical process,Marx’s dialectics of labor really has the historical content of real life.In analyzing and criticizing the bourgeois social reality,Marx’s dialectics of labor is an organic combination of the positivity of classical political economy and the dialectic of Hegel’s philosophy.Through the classical political economy’s labor value theory and Hegel’s view of spiritual labor of dual criticism,Marx developed the dialectics of labor,which took human historical activities as its content and “abstract spirit”(impersonal reason)and “abstract existence”(capital)as its critical objects.By“mercilessly criticizing everything that exists,” Marx’s dialectics of labor achieves a double “end”: it not only ends the super-historical metaphysics,but also the nonhistorical myth of capitalism.Marx’s dialectics of labor is a high unity of reflection on the existentialism of“realistic history” and the pursuit of the emancipation theory of “free and all-round development of human beings”.Marx took “labor” as the realistic foundation,revealed the duality of labor by expounding the duality of commodities,and highlighted the duality of human existence by revealing the duality of labor;the secret of currency,a special commodity of universal equivalent,is revealed through the study of value form,and the historical connotation of human existence is revealed through the study of value form.Through the investigation and analysis of the “contradictory movement” of capital,it truly shows the relationship between people under the cover of the relationship between things and things and breaks the secret of capitalist production relations.The goal of “description of reality” is to expose the logic of capital movement,which is the foundation of Marx’s labor dialectics.Marx’s dialectics of labor,on the other hand,is neither a “description of reality” nor a simple negation of “the history of reality”.Instead,it offers enlightening and constructive ideas for shortening and alleviating the pain of social development with theoretical consciousness.It reveals the realistic path of human liberation and free with all-around development which builds a truly free labor community and transforms capital’s independence and individuality into that of everyone.Marx’s dialectics of labor not only reflects and expresses the spirit of his own time,but also shapes and guides the new zeitgeist with the “contemporaneity” of“transcendent times”.As the zeitgeist in their own times: Marx’s revelation and transcendence of the capital civilization which is an “alienated civilization” aims to create a new civilization based on the material and spiritual foundation laid by the capital civilization.It opens up a realistic rather than illusory historical realization process from the “civilized side of capital” to “highly civilized people”.As the living soul of civilization: Marx’s dialectics of labor achieves people’s liberation through labor liberation and creates a type of “labor civilization” that realizes people’s free and all-around development.Under the direction of the concept of “labor civilization”,the Community of Shared Future for Mankind pursues a beautiful life in which all mankind share “leisure”,which is the inheritance and expansion of Marx’s dialectics of labor’civilized implication in the new era. |
