Prehension Of Actual Entities

This paper argues that Marx made a commitment of "actual" liberation,while Mr.Gao Qinghai presented the "Gattungswesen Philosophy" to answer how man is actual.Specifically,first of all,Gao argues that people are able to transcend the "Gattung" and actively create value because of the living state of "Gattungswesen";Secondly,"Gattungswesen" is not an abstract concept,but a living state in which all "Gattungswesen" being-with-others,that is the actuality of people basically derived from the the unity of the "Gattungswesen";Thirdly,individuals of "Gattungswesen" create themselves in association with the "Gattungswesen" unity,meanwhile,constantly comprehend the meaning of all the creatures in nature and explore the meaning of the universe,hence Mr.Gao also call "Gattungswesen" as "the universe life".Finally,the actuality of man requires the actuality of social,man who actually freely create themselves realizes "essence exchange" with being-with-others,in the actual society man not only comply with social rules,but also gives the essence of itself to the whole society,which means they are also makers of social rules.So Mr.Gao combined the theory of human nature and the cosmology to answer Marx's proposition of real liberation,"the free development of everyone is the condition of all people's free development".At the same time,this paper also concerned about Alfred North Whitehead,the philosopher in the early 20 th century.Whitehead's understanding of "actuality" is consistent with "Gattungswesen Philosophy".Whitehead's view of the ultimate existence of the universe is not an abstract feeling or entity,but the generation process of actual thing,that is,"the Actual Entities." And the "actual entities" are actual because of its association with all “actual entities" in the universe.Mr.Gao's understanding of "actuality" is firstly the "actuality" of human,the association of the individual "Gattungswesen" and the unity of "Gattungswesen".Meanwhile,"Gattungswesen" give its meaning to nature,thus revealing the actuality of the universe to achieve "self-consciousness of Intersubjectivity and subjectivity." Whitehead's understanding of "actuality" is the "actuality" of everything exists in the universe,all existence in the universe have the self-consciousness of freely creation,in summary it's "self-consciousness of every existence in the universe".This article attempts to make dialogue between "Gattungswesen philosophy" and "process philosophy".Firstly,this paper will re-sort out the key clues in "Gattungswesen philosophy",at the same time,it clarifies that Whitehead's discussion made a transformation of traditional philosophical thinking mode in the epistemology,and answered in which links "Process philosophy" has a reference value to the "Gattungswesen philosophy".And on the basis of this dialogue,this paper will point out how Mr.Gao Qinghai's "Gattungswesen philosophy" break through the traditional thinking mode of philosophy,and to what extent "Gattungswesen philosophy" still has realistic value.Finally,we should also pay attention to the different basic position of them,which led to the inconsistent of two philosophical premises.Finally,we return to Marx's communist commitment,the liberation of human means "the freedom to be based on the comprehensive development of the individual and their common social productive capacity as their social wealth." Whether it is the liberation of human in the society,or the achievement of human's own actual "Gattungswesen" in the organic association all are ways to sublate alienated organisms.In the end,people can only achieve their own actuality inside the actual "organism".In this sense "Gattungswesen philosophy" is contemporary deepening of marxist philosophy.
