As guiding ideology of china,Marxism plays an extremely important role in socialistdevelopment of china. Facing with the complex situations in modern society,we regarddeveloping Marxism advancing with the times as the core of the subject and as a priorityfor all. Critical spirit is the soul and quintessence of Marxism,so if we want to developMarxism,to make it direct social practice preferably,we shall develop critical Marxism.Social critique theory of Horkheimer tries to recover the critical nature of Marxism,togive play to real social function of philosophy,and its criticizing towards developedcapitalist society is worth considering and learning. By analyzing the implication and thecharacteristics of social critical theory of Horkheimer, I clearly realize that the essence ofsocial critical theory and developing critical and dialectic critique of materialism ofsocial critical theory make great sense of perfecting critical Marxism. The cause ofRe-understand Marxism is the change of social,historical background,and both thedoctrinaire Marxism and the scientific Marxism make Marxism lose its criticalness. Withthe global change caused by the rapid development of capitalism,the alienation andreification of human are increasingly more serious,thus result in weakening Marxism bysocial reality. Therefore,we should re-understand Marxism taking stand of social criticaltheory. We shall realize that Marxism is a criticism that embodies the unity of theory andreality,and the unity of society and history. Re-understanding Marxism contributes to ourStaying firmly rooted in the present,building Critical dimension of Marxism, rebuildingthe Social and historical dimension of Marxism.
