Capitalism in the process of development,capital expansion and proliferation,and the proliferation of capital dominates the capitalist society is constantly moving forward,the process,capitalism also suffered from the crisis in time and time again.And capitalist society was not because these crises and changes its social system,it is also shows that the capitalist society itself there is a solution to solve the crisis of and repair,it is called "time-space" the repair strategy.In Harvey's opinion,the essence of capitalist socialist capital expanding will inevitably lead to the inevitable economic crisis,the crisis in the form of space constantly,and the cause of the crisis has not destroy capitalism society is because of the capitalism itself "time-space" restoration strategy use of space production mechanism to seek a way out for the economic crisis of the capitalist society,but also there is no doubt that alleviate the economic crisis.But Harvey also made clear that the repair plan is only a temporary solution to the economic crisis,can not fundamentally solve or avoid the capitalist economic crisis,so this is a plan remains to be repaired.More importantly,the scheme for the capitalism society also brought a lot of negative effects,especially about the justice of space has been questioned,space has produced many unjust phenomena,such as: the backward countries and national space plunder,global natural space of undue excessive capitalization,capital virtualization and increase the risk of the global economy,the rise of new imperialism,unbalanced geographical development.The issue of justice and space has been a constant concern in the field of philosophy,and there are also researchers who have studied these two issues in the marxist army.When space is not justice problems in capitalist society has become increasingly prominent,and then the uneven distribution of the spatial resources,widening the gap between rich and poor,unreasonable space resources possession,as well as rights gradually privatization is not the question of justice.At this time,space production is being debated and discussed by many scholars in the sense of thedevelopment of capitalist society.Harvey,the study of space problem based on Marx's historical materialism as the foundation of his theory,on the basis of the introduction of spatial dimension related issues,but also in history-a new perspective of geographical materialism theory to come up with their own space to carry on the omni-directional analysis and critique of capitalist society,he from the aspects such as politics,economy and culture of capitalism to capitalist to find a solution,put forward the criticism of the reality and the ideal of planning,the purpose is to achieve the space you want,just as his book "the space of hope",is the problem of capitalism space ideal planning.David Harvey capitalism,however,these unjust problems,can really combine justice problem and space problem research,the problem of spatial justice based on the capitalist society itself,rather than rawls,bentham or researchers in postmodernism,alone to study space allocation itself or moral level,this is Harvey's unique value and significant of space problem.In this paper,starting from the background of space problem of Harvey,anatomy of Harvey's spatial justice problem,at the same time reveals the space of a capitalist society justice three aspects of the problem,and the reason of these unjust problem analysis and solution,use the space of capitalist production problems to solve the problem of space right,this is the development of Marx's critical spirit is unique,for other countries,especially our country urbanization plays an important reference significance,but also the study of contemporary and future scholars also have important guiding significance.
