Practice:Marx’s Ideological Principle Of "Becoming Marx"

As the core and soul of Marx’s ideological system,practice is the premise for correctly grasping its overall method,viewpoint and position.However,in specific research,the concept of practice is often delineated in Marx’s early philosophical thought,and Marx’s later research is not directly related to it.This caused a serious rupture in the development of Marx’s theory in its ideological development.Analyzing the critical content and theoretical deepening of the concept of practice in Marx’s ontological revolution,critique of political economy and communist thought is undoubtedly a feasible way to crack and respond to the viewpoint of fractured understanding of Marx’s theory.In terms of ideological background,Marx’s focus on practice stemmed from his concern for the philosophical dwellings of his contemporaries.German classical philosophy appealed to the supersensual forces of the yardstick of scientific truth and the resolution of social conflicts,while humanistic materialism pinned its hopes on an abstract value suspension.Both have each explored part of the truth,but neither has failed to address the root causes of contradictions in modern society;In order to solve this dilemma on a philosophical basis,Marx went beyond the traditional philosophy of duality with the principle of practice at the ontological level,and cut to the generative logic of real life.After thinking about the question of material interests and the revolutionary road,Marx put the practical basis of theory on real life itself.This turn was deepened in the critical assimilation of Hegel’s dialectic,forming an ontological principle with perceptual activity as the core;After Marx launched a critique of political economy,practice was manifested as wage labor.By critiquing the capitalist mode of production and materialization principle,the principle of practice is proved to be the historical premise of capital’s abstract domination of the world,and a revolutionary force that directly breaks through the limits of its existence;This revolutionary force manifested itself in Marx’s communist cause as the affirmative process of negation of negation.It requires man to deny the limitations of nature and human society on man through practice,and in the process generate and define himself.Human labor and the relations derived from it are no longer expressed as people’s means,but as ends themselves.Instead of being synthesized by abstract universality,people rely on labor itself to construct a rich social network,the association of free men.In general,practice is a key factor throughout the process of Marx’s thought,which is directly expressed as an ontological principle.However,when Marx was specifically engaged in theoretical criticism,this principle also potentially constituted the position and weapon of Marx’s social criticism.There is no break between principle and criticism,and the process of combing and analyzing this mutual influence is of great significance for understanding why Marx became Marx.
