From the traditional to a modern society in the process of transformation. reasonable assurance of the traditional moral and ideological premise of a pre-ontology fundamental changes. This change has the effect of the prevalence of individual values.Enlightenment changed people's ways of thinking and outlook on the world, create awareness of the rational people, the birth of a sense of subjectivity. "rational" has become a symbol of modern society is different from traditional society. However, it his "main" is the highlight of the initiative, the center, a priori, This makes a single rational, as a rational tool. Rational tools adhere to the rule of "neutral principles" has become the most important characteristics of a modern society. Values, belief, purpose, significance because no tools are regarded as"irrational".was expelled from the pudlic domainThey only exist in the private sphere of life and individual freedom of choice, they are given the main, Individual must be self-evaluation. Individual conscience or the "main character" and become an authoritative judgment on the basis of reasonable value. The moral standards in modern society has completely lost its unified standards each individual has the option to establish their own moral beliefs, individuals in this area have complete power. personal values and moral beliefs is the only legitimate authority.this is the rule of modern moral"values individualism.""Value individual" with the emergence of modern society "personal freedom" is closely linked to the pursuit. However, the contradictions of modern society, the value of individualism and also contain a profound moral crisis. This crisis manifested in "individual liberty" and "moral consensus" between them. Along with the Western market economy characterized by free competition system fully exposed the inherent contradictions. morality of "subjective" increasingly serious challenges, It is not only in real life has been far from satisfying human needs, It has also become potentially dangerous forces affecting the destiny of modern societyThe individualistic values of individual freedom and moral consensus on the conflict between There are two different circles of modern Western philosophy attitude. Rejection is a "general" to defend individual freedom, and the other is to return to the "society" "Community" or make use of religion to the conflict between individual freedom and moral consensus to reconcile. However, the holder of two approaches have their own flaws. "Liberals" were "values individualism" is not a solid foundation on which to defend. it is difficult to respond to the challenges posed by the value of individualism. Reconcile and maintain the attitude of the Western philosopher to see that although the value of the individual defects But this will solve the ills of modern means before resorting to religious or community groups, which indicates that They individualistic values of personal freedom and independence for the formation of personality played a major role in the lack of adequate understanding of history, on the "Community" to reach a "moral consensus" and the "moral unity," the potential risk of a lack of adequate suppression of individual liberties enough of and consciously, it makes it reflect the addition of modern moral significance The moral life for people not to give practical guidance.The major problems facing these two theories, based on Marx's basic survival mode switch, truly realize the value of the individual beyond. Marx, the value of individualism has to overcome the deep-seated contradictions in modern moral reconstruction on the basis of reasonable, it is necessary to change people's survival and survival patterns. Practice activities, in particular activities, demonstrating the reality of interdependence of the world's people. in the real world and the historical reality of a generation. Therefore, in practice, all production activities and the lives of people constitute the foundation and starting point of historical evolution. The survival patterns in the moral decisions and the allocation pattern specific forms of human survival is a form of moral values inherent basis, it is also a fundamental practice in the moral life. Marx's "free form of personality" as a new form of the survival of a modern society and a modern society with a difference. "Free form of personality" means : "the people" in both the individual is no longer beyond the top of the "acquis communautaire" accessory, is no longer a mutual split with a long list of "lone individual". but by the formation of the independent personality of the individual "freedom of the Commonwealth." Meanwhile, Marx believed that people type existence, This is not only in theory or in practice, regardless of category regarded as a target but that the people themselves are as vivid categories, as is generally the result of the existence free treatment. This freedom is the natural harmony of existence. With Marx's description of the survival of the above changes, moral values corresponding to the pattern will be undergoing fundamental changes, it with suitable form of moral values is not simply the individual, not the whole doctrine is simple. They basically exceeded the value of individualism and the overall value of the intellectual confrontation, I established a small and large I Individual and harmonious integration of a new moral category, which between human beings and nature, between the people been resolved, so that the existence and nature of the object-oriented and self-confirmation that the natural and inevitable, and the individual Class struggle between the real solution. In short, from a different Marx. more individualistic value of a deeper historical perspective on the various "disorders" opened a new "diagnosis" and "treatment programs "To solve the problems of modern provide a broader" platform ", while He proposed a fundamental change in the mode of survival beyond the individual value of the basic principles reasonable solution for the moral issues of modern society, is of great contemporary significance.
