The scientific and technological ideology of Marx is rich and profound in content,which contains a profound human value orientation.Marx regards man as the subject of scientific and technological activities and value creation,takes human liberation and free development as the pursuit of scientific and technological value.Marx advocates that science and technology are the force that promote social change and pursue the realization of human value,which inherently implies human liberation.However,science and technology have become a tool of capital appreciation under capital logic and suppress human nature more and more severely.Marx is based on the comprehensive development of human beings and exposes social and historical root of technological alienation in capitalist private ownership.We try to understand and explore Marx's scientific and technological thoughts from the perspective of human value.Marx revealed that in a capitalist society that used capital logic as its operation mode,science and technology had become tools for the bourgeoisie to pursue interests and strengthen its own dominance,and the survival of the proletariat was worsening.Although many philosophers in it began to reflect on science and technology,they did not think about science and technology under the operation of capital logic.Marx insisted on insight into the relationship between science and technology,as well as human society from the fundamental areas of social system and life practice.From a theoretical perspective of historical materialism,he focused on human values and launched a comprehensive investigation of science and technology.After analyzing the essence of science and technology that should serve people,Marx launched a deep reflection on the alienation of it.Marx went deep into the process of social and historical development and the practice of human production and life.He conducted a comprehensive and in-depth investigation of the “inhumanity”,which brought about by the alienation of science and technology,exposing the truth that the bourgeoisie used science and technology to earn surplus value and consolidate its dominant position.According to Marx,the alienation of science and technology is intensified under the influence of capital logic,suppressing human nature and even deviating from the criticism of human values.Technology alienation has reduced man to a vassal of machines.Under the restraint and suppression of technology,people's spiritual life increasingly loses their inner transcendence and moves towards nothingness.Marx pointed that the cause of technology alienation was directly to the capitalist system itself.Under the operation of capital logic,technology became an accomplice to the bourgeoisie,and the survival of workers had completely departed from human values.After studying Marx's scientific and technological thoughts,we find that Marx's transcendence of technology alienation and the return of human value have important guiding significance for the development of contemporary Chinese science and technology.His thoughts are based on realistic people to explore the future direction of science and technology,and to clarify how science and technology can meet the individual's basic survival needs and value pursuit,and thus ultimately to achieve the comprehensive and free development of people.Marx's lifelong struggle is to seek a way out for the realization of the full and free development of human.This is also of great practical significance to the current development of science and technology in our country.Xi Jinping's thought of socialist science and technology with Chinese characteristics in the new era emphasizes that the development of science and technology must better benefit people,take people as the center,rely on people's development of science and technology,and then the development achievement are shared by people.Undoubtedly,the exaltation of human value in Marx's scientific and technological thoughts has pointed out a clear developmental direction for China's science and technology.
