Marx’s historical materialism and political economy,especially the study of labor ownership,contain a new perspective on the issue of justice.From the publication of Rawls’s"Theory of Justice" in 1971 to the debate between Alan Wood and Husami on whether Marx favors the criticism of capitalist society as injustice,and whether social criticism is value criticism or fact criticism,all involve deeper thinking issues.One is the grasp of the degree of value and fact criticism.Second,is there a practical path that goes beyond the dichotomy of factual value?The private property rights that bourgeois political scientists believe as the realization of political concepts such as equality,freedom,and justice can only be understood in the context of capital relations as the structural force of the whole society.The logic of capital has preemptively oriented the appearance of these social relations,so the construction of political philosophies such as justice cannot avoid the critique of political economy,and the critique of political economy itself constitutes a self-contained critical framework of justice.Since modern politics,how to establish the property ownership of labor has become the core issue of civil social justice.The ideological tradition of bourgeois political scientists who lock ownership into the state of nature and abstract legal rights,that is to say,examining the relationship between labor and ownership from the perspective of the undifferentiated superhistorical natural individual can not effectively explain the self-paradox of ownership theory in practice that the ownership based on individual labor eventually leads to the denial of ownership.Marxism’s historical materialism defines the historical boundaries of labor ownership and repositions the narrative coordinates of justice on the basis of a study of the evolution of labor and ownership relations in the Relations of production of different social forms.Marx revealed that labor ownership is directly related to the forms of occupation of conditions of production at different historical stages.In the three pre-capitalist forms of ownership,he got a glimpse of the origins of capitalism,such as the means of production,the assets of life,the rise of wage labor.He finds out the historical inevitability of the transformation of labor ownership from identity justice to opposition injustice,that is,the substitution and suppression of capital logic to subjective labor.The realistic foundation of the separation of labor ownership is the reconstruction of the subject-object relationship between labor and "Ownership" by abstract labor.In the socialized production of capitalism,People’s social labor and relations acquire the general form of abstract labor,and the reflexive object of the value relation of abstract labor intermediary turns into the external object image,and from the commodity,currency and other forms of development into the overall reversal of the capital of the materialized pseudo-state.Therefore,the production of capital presents the appearance of self-mystification and rationalization,which is separated from the relationship between people.The Means of production of "All items" is not a simple object,but a false image of the reverse objectification of value relations constructed by abstract labor and undergoing multiple exchanges and transformations,from the very beginning,it implies the compulsion and separation of labor.The real justice is not the moral presupposition imposed on the real society,which divides the existing gap,but the substantive historical justice inherent in the logic of historical development.Marx reflects on the historical alienation of labor and the reversal of the social relations it had entered into,transcending the closed system of legal right and justice with the logic of history itself,sublating the ownership of capital and reshaping the ownership of labor.The communist principle of "Reconstruction of individual ownership" is scientifically and rationally advanced from the historical development of labor.Thus Marxism reaches labor justice,transcends Either/Or in practical practice,and realizes the unity of facts and values.
