The Thought Of Labor In Georg Lukacs’ Ontology Of Social Being

The ontology of social being is an important work of Lukacs in his later years,and also a summary of his life’s theoretical thoughts.Lukacs turned from the "overall"issue in the previous History and Class Consciousness to the discussion of ontological issues.The purpose was to reinterpret Marx’s ideology by using existence as the starting point,and then at the level of ontology and then reconstruct Marxist philosophy.Labor is proposed as the core of Lukacs’ social ontology.Lukacs divides labor refinement into three parts:labor as a teleological setting process,labor as a social practice ontology,and labor as a free activity.Trying to explain his interpretation of labor as the theoretical basis for reconstructing Marxist philosophy from ontology.This thesis mainly uses the methods of literature research and comparison to analyze the labor thoughts in Lukacs’ Ontology about Social Being from the two clues of history and logic,and through the ideological source and suggestion process of Lukacs’ labor thoughts.And the specific connotation and other aspects,as well as Lukacs’ transcendence and correction of his earlier related ideas to comprehensively analyze Lukacs’ labor thoughts.The thesis is divided into these following parts:The first chapter is mainly about summarizing,sorting out and summarizing the current achievements and existing viewpoints of Lukacs’s labor from domestic and foreign scholars.Research on the teleological setting of labor,the social practice mode of labor,the subject-object relationship in labor,and the ontology of social existence based on labor are concentrated.On the basis of the current mastery of the literature,the author studies the theoretical value of Lukacs’ labor thoughts in the book On The Ontology of Social Existence.The second chapter mainly elaborates on the historical background and theoretical sources of Lukacs’ labor thoughts and the concrete connotation of labor thoughts.In order to achieve the goal of returning to Marx,Lukacs believes that it is necessary to break through the philosophical system framework influenced by Stalin from the theoretical perspective of Hegel and Marx,so as to truly grasp Marxist philosophy.In his later years,Lukacs faced two kinds of pressure from the fetishism of the capitalist camp and the dogmatism from the socialist camp.At the same time,due to his tendency toward historical methods in his early philosophical thinking,he produced some In order to self-correct and to complete the return to Marx,Lukacs chose to use labor as the main theoretical foundation to reconstruct his philosophical theory.At the same time,when Lukacs launched the construction of the ontology of labor-based social existence,Hegel’s logic analysis method and Marx’s political economics theory became his main theoretical foundation,and on this basis,The specific content of labor.The concrete connotation of labor can be summarized as the three modes of labor(the labor set as the teleology,the labor as the main body of social practice,the relationship between the subject and the object in labor)and the combination of labor.On the basis of labor thought,Lukacs clarified the specific connotation of social existence and re-constructed the ontology of social existence.The third chapter is a description of Lukacs’ labor thought and its evaluation.Lukacs’ evaluation of the status of labor thought mainly focuses on the status in the ontology of social existence.Labor thought is the core of Lukacs’ social ontology and the basis for constructing the ontology methodology of social existence.In the evaluation of Lukacs’ labor thoughts,it is mainly divided into two aspects:positive meaning and limitation.Through comparison with relevant thoughts in Lukacs’ early works,he draws Lukacs’ theoretical framework and way of thinking in his later years.The conclusion of correcting the early thoughts also affirmed the positive effect of Lukacs’ labor thought on the reconstruction of Marxist social ontology.In addition,this chapter briefly describes the limitations of Lukacs’ labor thoughts,mainly reflected in the lack of understanding of the basic issues of philosophy and the confusion of labor and production concepts caused by the single perspective of research.
