This paper systematically reviews and sums up the concept of "money" in Marx's texts such as "On the Jewish Question","Notes on James Mill","Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844","The German Ideology","The Poverty of Philosophy" and "Grundrisse",focuses on the form of the value expression and function of money in history,and draws the provisions of the origin and essence of the money.Just because money has these characteristics,it keeps the relationship between money and capital,and money is the prerequisite and objective condition for the formation of modern capital.But under the capitalist mode of production,"the money as capital" causes the boundary of money and capital to be blurred owing to the characteristic of its own value proliferation: capital masking the identity of the money itself and having the metaphysical characteristic.In this way,the identical relationship between money and capital turns into double trends.One is the money which exists as value commensurability in the field of circulation and exits in the form of consumer goods,the other is the capital which pursues value proliferation in the field of production and seeks value preservation in the form of money in the field of circulation.The distinct opposite and identical relationship between the two constitutes the true portrayal of money and capital.Finally,through the three division of money and capital,the reflection of the relationship between money and capital is realized.The transformation of money into capital is the expansion of the concept of value proliferation in the whole society,which brings about the irreconcilable contradiction between the progress of scientific and technological innovation and the economic crisis.The transformation of money into capital makes the workers face the dual circumstances of objectification and alienation,and the inherent reflexivity of capital is also gradually apparent.The basic structure of the paper is divided into four parts,which are as follows:The first part mainly introduces the basic structure of the paper,the practical significance and academic value of the topic,the train of thought and methods on research,and the basic research situation at home and abroad.It focus on the money as the center,and comb the related concept of money.The second part expounds the evolution on Marx's thought of money combined with the texts,then discusses four forms of value expression of commodity,and leads to the discussion about the origin,characteristics,essence and function of money.This part will be focused on the related content of money.The third part takes the money as the breakthrough point to clarify the relationship between money and capital in "Grundrisse".This part focuses on why the relationship between money and capital is about prerequisite,dynamic,exchange and production,and puts forward the three division of the relationship between money and capital on the basis of defining the relationship between the two.The core and difficulty of this part is how to find the basis for the division of the relationship between money and capital.The fourth part is the reflection and enlightenment of carrying out money and capital.Through the analysis of value commensurability of money and value proliferation of capital,understands how "the money as money" and "the money as capital" separate and transform.After reflection,the theoretical and practical significance of the study is obtained.For example,the transformation from money to capital makes the innovation of social science and technology develop,so how should we make full use of the positive role of capital to serve the construction of social modernization?...
