Research On Marx's Critical Theory Of Fetishism

Marx's critical theory of fetishism is an important part of his historical materialism,and it is not only of theoretical value,but also of practical significance to make an in-depth study of this problem.This paper intends to explore the origin and essence of fetishism by sorting out the formation and development of Marx's critical fetishism theory,and on this basis,put forward the way to eliminate fetishism.Explain the significance of Marx's critical theory of fetishism.The formation of Marx's critical theory of fetishism is formed in the continuous in-depth study of the social reality of capitalism.Marx first paid attention to the Jewish infatuation with material and worship of money,and thought that it was necessary to solve the ubiquitous materialization phenomenon in the society at that time,and need society to be liberated from the Jewieh spirit.Later,by revealing the social reality,the alienation of labor not only makes workers alienated from their own labor products,their own life activities,their own essence,but also alienated from others.between human beings and labor products,Marx drew the basic conclusion that the relation between people and things is reversed in capitalist production mode.On this basis,Marx pointed out the distortion and inversion of currency and capital to labor by criticizing the materialization of capitalist society,which made people indeed become slaves of things.In Das Kapital Marx's critique of fetishism is completely finished,Marx analyzed the development of fetishism from commodity fetishism to money fetishism and then to capital fetishism.Capital,in its more mysterious form,dominates the capitalist society,fetishism has reached its acme and peak.The fundamental reason for the emergence of fetishism is that the opposition between capital and labor become irreconcilable.The compulsory division of labor and the emergence of private property aggravated the alienation of human beings,who became different.In essence,fetishism is a stage of human alienation and the stage of human materialization,which reflects the reversed relationship between people and the relationshipbetween things.In order to overcome fetishism,it needs to be based on highly developed productivity,eliminate the alienated labor,eliminate capitalist relations of production,and finally realize the free and comprehensive development of human beings.In today's commodity economy the study of Marx's critical fetishism theory can arouse people's awareness of respecting and revering nature and ensure the harmonious coexistence of man and nature.It can eliminate people's infatuation with material,pay more attention to people themselves,and then eliminate the alienation state between people,and realize the harmony between people.It can guide people to set up correct values,pay more attention to the use value of things,overcome the erosion of fetishism to some extent,and get rid of the control of things over people.
