Inquiry Of The Difference On Alienation Between Lucaks And Marx

In these decades of years, a great deal of scholars have their own meaningof alienation in all kinds of discussions because of different people anddifferent views. Also the use of alienation has deeply got in every field, suchas philosophy, sociology, economics, etc. At such an realities, this article aimsat comparing Lucaks' and Marx's theory on alienation accurately to clarify thetrue meaning and the prerequisite, reason, result of alienation phenomenon anddevelop how to discard alienation from the angle of philosophy. By reviewingthe drawback of alienation phenomenon and positive function from reality Iwant to tell the readers that we should understand Lucaks' logic mode ofthinking of theory and explain Marx's view on alienation objectively, thus withMarx's humane care of extensive and profound knowledge, to guide our life. The word alienation is first from Latin, which means let cross, make over,drift apart, difference, separate, amentia, etc. The use of it has beenexperienced for several centuries, until it was given a philosophic meaning byGermen Classical Philosophy. Fichte, Hegel and Feuerbach so on explainedthe alienation in their field of vision and alienation phenomenon from differentangles, but the result is, their so-called alienation is in absolute terms abstractly,and fails to find the real subject and origin of alienation. To the contrast, Marxtakes care of the realistic activity of the realistic person, and found the secretnot known from it: alienated labor. At the same time, westernMarxist—Lucaks, in his book History And Class Consciousness, put forwardthe view on the alienation extremely similar with Marx. Marx tells a great problem in capitalist mode to us in his The EconomicAnd Philosophic Manuscript Of 1844, which is that workers are graduallyseparated with his goods, his own productive labor, his relation with others 45and his own essence, this is the so-called alienation. From then on Marxbelieves that the result of alienation and the spreading of every field in thesociety become the tying down of human development and social progress;and on the other hand he points out that to discard what is alienation mustcarry on revolution, develop production energetically, which is the onlyeffective way to realize communism. After that, In 1923, Lucaks finished thewriting of History And Class Consciousness in case of not seeing Marx'smanuscript. He describs the following miserable scene for us exhaustively: therelation between man takes on a kind of criminal relation between goods in thecapitalist society, that is Lucaks' the definition of "materialization". Moreover,Lucaks thinks that the materialization is still invaded in people's ideologydeeply as devil, engulfing people's soul and intuitive knowledge day by day,and strangling people's freedom and dynamic role mercilessly, so it makespeople become a machine that never stops in the society and life, in additionthere is not value at all. In a word, it's obvious that Lucaks's analysis andexplanation to the materialization and materialization phenomenon are playingthe same tune on different musical instruments with Marx. At strong foresightsand outstanding insight accuse they the people-eat-people social mode ofproduction and systems. Certainly, Marx's theory on the alienation is very heavy different withLucaks' materialization theory. No matter from the concept or in the mode ofthinking, on logic gradual progress or methodology, the two all have essentialdifferences. To sum up, we should pay attention to limitations of Lucaks'theory on the materialization: his overall theory is not so accurate to the use ofthe materialization concept and analysis of the alienation phenomenon, thatnear to the Hegelism to some degree; then, it nearly stays at level of thinking,lack corresponding practice frame; at last, it demonstrates the dense Utopia 46...
