马克思的“人是目的”思想与民生幸福

Marxist ideas of “treating people as ends” and people’s welfare

马克思超越了康德从人的动物性与道德性的区分中论证人是目的的抽象思路,着重从人与劳动、人与社会的关系中论证人的自由全面发展(目的)是社会发展的核心价值和根本目标。人的最高幸福,也不是超越感性欲望而趋向宗教境界(至善),而是享受生命自由表现的审美意蕴。鉴于幸福的全面性,我国社会应努力建构和营造符合当今时代特点的生活方式的美学。

Kant pointed out the rationality and autonomy in human beings by saying 'act so as to treat people always as ends in themselves.' Marx later analyzed the relationship between human beings,labor and society.He held that the overall free development of human beings is the core value and ultimate goal of social development and that the true happiness does not lie in the illusory happiness created by religion but in enjoying the free representation of life.In view of the richness of happiness,China needs to found the aesthetics compatible with the modern life.
