From the practical point of view,people are always pay attention to their needs in social life,including material needs,such as food,clothing,shelter and transportation,etc..as well as spiritual and ethical needs such as the aesthetic art and morality,which are related to how people live a better life,and how to live more like a person;from a theoretical point of view,especially in the texts of Marx's works,the needs of human beings has always been a study issue that Marx paid close attention to,Marx was concerned about the living conditions of the proletariat,feeling the pulse of the whole society and seeking the root cause of the disease,and then to achieve the real liberation of human needs.Whether from the reality or from the theoretical level to view the needs of human beings,it is an important issue that Marxist scholars should face and analyze.The text of Marx provides us with very valuable theoretical materials,analyzing and researching step by step and meticulously.With the human needs as a starting point to explore human nature,human alienation in the capitalistic age and how to achieve the liberation of all humankind.In Marx's time,Marx hoped to be able to unite the proletariat all over the world to carry out the proletarian revolution through scientific theoretical argumentation.In the present age,the methods of revolution no longer seem to occupy a dominant position.Using the wisdom of science and technology to develop productive forces vigorously,besides the abandonment of private ownership,education is the necessary means to realize the needs of human nature.Marx's theory of need is not a theory which is put up and demonstrated alone,but a theory which unites the important things of human beings,like human nature,alienation and liberation of human beings etc.It is scattered in the whole text of Marx's works,so it is necessary to sort out Marx's exposition and interpretation of human needs from “Marx and Engels”.This is also the most basic and important method to be loyal to Marx's theory of human need.In the present era,especially in our country,with the development of social history,the principal social contradictions have gradually changed to be the contradictions between the increasing needs of the people for a better life and the unbalanced and inadequate development,which is the progress of history.At the same time,we can also know that along with the continuous improvement of worldproductivity and production level,people's material needs are constantly improved,and mean time,people's spiritual demands are gradually being put up on the agenda.Therefore,in the present era,innovative technologies such as artificial intelligence and big data are used to promote social productivity;our education system have been upgraded from examination-oriented to quality-oriented;and through the forces of the government's macro-control,the private properties are abandoned.In view of Marx's theory of needs,these are important ways to realize the needs of human nature and the direction we should strive for.
