Marxism classical writers'set up the theory of socially basic contradiction during the founding of historical materialism, and utilize this theory to analyze capitalist society-the contradiction between socialization of production and capitalist system of appropriation of the means of production, thus, which reveal the rule of development of capitalist movement, and put forward the scientific assertion of "Two Necessities". Marxism classical writers'theoretical critiques of basic contradiction of capitalism provides us the significant theoretical weapon on the analysis of basic contradiction of modern capitalism.Following the continuous improvement of the revolution of new science and technology since 1980s, the collapse of the former Soviet Union and tremendous change to East Europe, and the policy adjustment of capitalism, globalization tendency becomes even more violent and which proves to be the key character gradually in such an era. Therefore, in the era of globalization, the basic contradiction of capitalism is not faded away but to further deepen. Besides, its manifestation becomes more and more diversified and complicated, and even surpasses the national boundaries to possess the global characteristics. In the new period, the deepening aggravation of the basic contradiction of capitalism is not only to embody the inherent contradictions between proletariat and bourgeoisie in a national scale, and between the sense of organization which is generated in inner-enterprise and the anarchy of the whole social production, then on the periodical economic crisis, but also to reflect the deepening contradiction between developed country and developing country, between the sense of organization which is produced in individual country and transnational corporation, and the disorder of the world economy, between the trend of widening world production capacity and the restricted world market capacity, regional or frequent outbreaks of the global financial crisis, and intensifying contradiction between man and nature, ect.It is caused by a variety of reasons that the deepening aggravation of the basic contradiction of capitalism in a national scale. Socialization of production oversteps the national boundaries and spreads all over the world. Gradually, the development of socialized mass production at the national level becomes internationalized mass production, which intensify the basic contradiction of capitalism worldwide. Accordingly, the contradiction between capitalist and the working class is expanding globally, the contradiction between labor and capital is globalizes, and the contradiction between south and north is more exacerbated; furthermore, with the rise of new liberalism, "the Washington Consensus" changes it into the national ideology of the developed country, and drives to spread all over the world. Globalization of the new liberalism has brought great disaster to the developing country, and exposed its hegemony nature and colonial intentions, which raise the anti-new liberalism wave on a global scale, and then the contradiction between developed country and developing country becomes more and more acute. However, the revolution of new liberalism that is initiated and exported by the developed country, setting up the outbreak of global financial crisis; the growing trend of economic globalization after the 19780s, is the external environment factor of the extending, deepening, and intensifying basic contradiction of capitalism all over the world; the technique that shifting the burdens of one's crisis onto others habitually practiced by the developed capitalist country, can not eliminate native crisis, but let the crisis becomes internationalized, and even popularize the basic contradiction of capitalism to the world.The global extension and deepening of the basic contradiction of capitalism proves historical fate of capitalism and the scientific of the "Two Necessities", which are revealed by the Marxism classical writers. Although capitalism has the capacity of self-control, and it also can alleviate the domestic contradictions for the moment, tackle the economic and financial crisis, and even prolong the longevity, it can not cure once and for all the basic contradictions, and there is still no change in its intrinsic quality, and with the global extension of the basic contradiction of capitalism, whose developmental space becomes more and more shrinking, the productivity is decreased day by day, the new social factors can have a great continuous improvement in the future, and the historical mate still can not change that capitalism is replaced by the new society.
