试论马克思市民社会概念的发展

市民社会是马克思历史唯物主义最初的出发点。马克思的“市民社会”概念是从黑格尔那里吸取来的,这一概念的发展经过三个阶段:早期阶段、过度阶段和成熟阶段。这一概念在马克思思想中的理论作用逐渐减弱,这与他对资本主义社会形态的本质基础的思考有关。

Civil society which is derived from Hegel is the initial point of Marx' historical materialism. The development of this conception go through three stages: early stage, transition stage and mature stage. Its theoretical function is weakened gradually in Marx' thought, and this is related to Marx' thinking about the nature basis of Capitalism social conformation.
