It is a fact without controversy that Marxist Philosophy and Contemporary Western Philosophy have coexisted in the 20th century and will coexist in the 21st century.We should respect this fact.On the one hand,Marxist Philosophy critically succeeded those active achievements of forgone philosophy and established the scientific system of dialectical materialism and historical materialism.This scientific system transcended both the traditional philosophy and the modern philosophy.On the other hand,western philosophy has also made its development and transcendence since 1840s.As a result,the tradition of rationalist philosophy was further abandoned while humanism and scientism brought great influences in the field of philosophy. The existence and influence of contemporary western philosophy must have their own objective base and reason.It is well known that all kinds of changes in the field of philosophy could be found their sources from the changes of social relations.As a part of western social superstructure, contemporary western philosophy serves the economic basis whose core is the system of capitalist market economy. Contemporary western philosophy transcended classical western philosophy and substituted modern philosophy.It made western philosophy develop to a new and higher period.Therefore, contemporary western philosophy should be analyzed concretely but not be negated rambunctiously. At last,if we want to say something about contemporary western philosophy,we should study it carefully and understand it indeed.The main characteristic of contemporary western philosophy is not to oppose materialism but to transcend the old metaphysics.Of course,we should insist on the position of dialectical materialism to study and understand contemporary western philosophy as it is.
