As a historical trend and an objective trend, modernity is moving ahead steadily aimd twists and turns. As the developing situation of man in modern social , promoting human development, it also caused many predicament of human development , leading to the development of people paid a heavy price. Journal of contemporary Chinese society, how to conform to this historical trend, the development our own modernity, clear up the difficulties of human development, abandoned the development of modern human cost of the process, promote all-round development of human? Will become the era before us an urgent subject.Modern society, people is in many development troubles, in the pursuit of freedom and comprehensive development process, paid a heavy price. Many domestic and foreign thinkers or scholars studied the human development from from different perspective. In modern times, to Hobbes, Rousseau, Hegel, Marx and Engels thought to represent, and especially Marx and Engels thought the most typical. They draw on the basis of previous studies, respectively, from the consideration of the definition, causes, and human development performance and the dialectical relationship between human development and so on. Modern Western scholars on the costs of human development, mainly in the Club of Rome, the comprehensive development of human-centered view ,the Frankfurt School and post-modernism in the relevant discourse. They described the costs of human development of the developed industrial society and technology society in different perspective, and explained the cause of the human development costs, and explore the way how to abandon the costs of human development. Since mid-80s of the last century, scholars in China given in-depth study on the definition, nature, types, characteristics, causes, transition costs and the development of a scientific study of the cost of, vision is also more open. Outstanding feature is the cost of social development, as the special object of study, but the research on the costs of human development was neglected.Cost of human development, is in pursuit of the value of free and full development and implementation of goals in the process of human development efforts, sacrifices and the commitment to the comprehensive development of human freedom and the value of goals contrary to the negative consequences. According to different standards of human development can make a different division of costs, the main consideration was the development of individuals costs, groups costs, and overall human costs; costs of human nature and inevitability costs, necessity costs and non-essential costs.. Cost of human development is different from the social development cost, there are three characteristics, can not be compensatory, ultimate value and belong to human directly. The general causes of human cost is very complex such as following, the practice of human development owns material exchange and duplicity characteristics, the human development goals is Varity, the emergence and development of division and subjective reasons. As a negative factor in human development process, the cost of human development and human development are natural constraints and interaction. Specifically, the cost of human development is a denial factor of human development, intrinsic with human development, and its abandoned and human development along the same path.Modernity as the basic characteristics and performance of modern society, include all aspects of social life, is a matter of political, economic, cultural, social and other aspects of the overall concept, its characteristics are flow variability, conflicts and pluralism solution path. Modernity not only promote human development, it also caused many difficulties. Modern connotation of the cost of human development, mainly the operation of the logic of capital led to the alienation of people; the spread of instrumental rationality lead to further alienation of people, values is sheltered and the degradation of body functions; industrial civilization and the industrial culture of the one-way degree leads to one-dimensional human development; a high degree of spatial and temporal separation of cause people to develop self-identity crisis and the emergence of risk. The cost of human development of pre-modern social man showing that a little cost paid, a single performance and man-made cost was the majority. And this is different from the modern society, man-made cost become the majority cost, the cost to pay an unprecedented, high costs in exchange for high growth, the global solutions and other new features. Contemporary Chinese society, logic of modernity development is unique, solves of cost is also unique, costs of human development of different stages appear at the same time, the socialist system established and improving give us a good condition to abandon the costs, we can also avoid the unnecessary cost, such as the western countries pay.Modernity forcing overall human-being, each state, nation or region, or even everyone to make reflective think and decide the fate of choice. We must face up to modern, abandon the cost of human development which coursed by modernity actively. First, clear up the dilemma of modernity of human development. Many Western thinkers and scholars explored the solutions to clear up the dilemma, Marx's Critical Theory of Modernity provide us a scientific methodology. Accordingly, we should effectively establish China's modernity, discarded human development costs. Second, we should form a scientific and rational view to cost. We have to own an objective and dialectical attitude towards the cost of modernity, and convinced that the cost of modernity can be discard and transcendence, keep a reasonable degree. Third, carry out systems and institutional mechanisms reform and innovation. Zequan Li and individuals to establish a system, and improve the personnel system, to establish a scientific mechanism for decision-making mechanism and the cost of compensation, the effective regulation of the process of modern human of price. Fourth, achieve the people's scientific development. The scientific development concept to guide human development, adhere to a comprehensive human development, coordination, continuity, moderation, endogenous and the principles of universality, the process of reducing the human cost of modern pay. Finally, we should vigorously develop the productive forces, in particular to promote the rapid development of modern production methods, make a material foundation for abandon the cost of human development.
