Proudhon has had an important influence in the process of Marxist formation.Both Marx and Proudhon concerned about the real problem and tried to find a solution.However,the two people study the philosophical basis of political economy in different way,Proudhon on the basis of materialism to build a new "social science",with a non-historical attitude to analyze the economic category,and find a basis in the concept,reverse the relationship between history and logic,and Marx,guided by historical materialism,from the reality,analysis of social development and change.The use of philosophical methods and historical view,so that Marx and Proudhon between the non-bridging differences.First of all,this paper discusses the evolution of the relationship between Marx and Proudhon,and analyzes the reasons for Marx's criticism of Proudhon.As a result of Proudhon's publication of the philosophy of poverty,or the system of economic contradictions(abbreviated as the philosophy of poverty),it had a great negative impact on the international Workers ' movement at that time.In view of Proudhon's erroneous view,Marx made a systematic critique of "The poverty of Philosophy".Secondly,the article combs the ideological context of Proudhon in the philosophy of poverty,and the main viewpoints of Proudhon and the logic produced by its theory.According to Proudhon,social development is governed by some highest will and is an irresistible force that drives society towards an unknowable goal.As a result,Proudhon into idealism as he looks for ways to tackle poverty and achieve equality.Based on the dialectics of materialism and fake Hegel,and applying the two to the field of political economy,he tried to construct a new social science to solve the problems of poverty and inequality.In the philosophy of poverty,Proudhon depicts the process by which "social genius" determines what constitutes value.As long as the establishment of the value,all the contradictions in the "system of economic contradictions" are solved,and the problem of the equality of social poverty will be truly solved.Proudhon used the method of combining philosophy and economics to explore the law of the eternal development of society by means of metaphysics.Finally,on the basis of a deep understanding of the text of "The poverty of Philosophy",this paper analyzes Marx's criticism of Proudhon in two aspects of political economy and philosophy.By criticizing Proudhon's false Hegel dialectics and materialism,Marx systematically expounded the basic contents of historical materialism,scientifically analyzed the productive forces,production relations and their relations,emphasized the decisive role of productive forces,and pointed out the historical and non-permanence of production relations,which marked the public emergence of Marx's historical materialism.By criticizing Proudhon's constitutive value theory and the application of philosophical methods in the field of economics,Marx,on the basis of reaffirming Ricardo's labor theory of value,emphasized the social history of value,division of labor and other categories,and expounded the basic viewpoint of political economy.In terms of the way of social change,Marx criticized Proudhon's repeated propaganda of burning private property by fire,opposing the use of violent forms,and pointing out the necessity of "comprehensive revolution".Unlike Proudhon's metaphysical methods,Marx,guided by historical materialism,explores the laws of social development from the perspective of reality.The essential difference between Marx and Proudhon in the view of history is destined to make two people embark on different paths when exploring the laws of social change and development.In the poverty of philosophy,Marx,through his critique of Proudhon,made the New World view,the first public expression of historical materialism,preliminarily expounded the basic viewpoint of political economy and the theory of scientific socialism.Therefore,it plays an important role in the development history of Marxism.At the same time,Marx's method of combining economics and philosophy in criticizing Proudhon in the poverty of philosophy has important enlightenment significance to us.
