恩格斯“两种生产”理论再阐释及其对我国人口均衡发展的现实启示

A Reinterpretation of Engels’“Two Theories of Production”and Its Implications for the Balanced Development of China’s Population

劳动的发展阶段和家庭的发展阶段是对恩格斯“两种生产”理论进行再阐释的逻辑起点。在劳动和家庭这两个范畴中,物质生产都对人自身生产发挥决定性影响,因而也对社会历史发展起“归根到底”的决定作用。在劳动发展和家庭发展的不同阶段,物质生产水平的提高对人自身生产的影响呈现从正相关到负相关的改变。随着社会发展进程加快,物质生产对人自身生产的影响更加复杂、隐晦和曲折,对恩格斯的“两种生产”理论的再阐释可以为我国人口均衡发展提供现实启示。

The stages of labour development and those of family development are the logical starting point for the reinterpretation of Engels’“two theories of production”.In the two different spheres of labour and family,material production plays a decisive role in the production of human beings themselves,and thus in the historical development of society.At different stages of labor development and family development,the impact of the improvement of material production on human production changes from a positive to a negative correlation.With the acceleration of social development,the influence of material production on human production becomes more complex,obscure and tortuous.The reinterpretation of Engels’“two theories of production”can provide some useful and practical insights for the balanced development of China’s population.
