马克思恩格斯的城市观及当代启示

The View of City of Marx and Engels and Its Contemporary Enlightenment

马克思和恩格斯从城市的起源、城市的形态结构、城市的功能以及城市的发展前景出发,认为城市的起源是社会生产力发展到一定水平的结果;城市的形态结构是一个独立的有机体;城市的功能是一个由单一到多样化的变化趋势;城市的发展前景是消灭城乡差别,实现每个人的自由全面发展。当前,我们可以运用马克思和恩格斯的城市观来指导我国城市发展的实践:遵循城市自身发展规律,推动中国特色城市化进程;坚持以人为本,促进人的自由全面发展;统筹城乡发展,构建社会主义和谐社会。

Marx and Engels′view of city was formed from the origin of city,the urban morphology structure of city,the function of city,and the development prospect of city.The view argues that the origin of city is the result of the development of social productivity to a certain level;the morphological structure of city is an independent organism;the function of city is a changing trend from single to diversification,and the development prospect of city is to eliminate the difference between urban and rural areas and realize free and all-round development of each person.At present,the city view of Marx and Engels can be applied to guide the practice of urban development in China:following the rules of urban development and promoting the urbanization process with Chinese characteristics;adhering to people-oriented principle and promoting free and all-round development of people;balancing urban and rural development and building a harmonious socialist society.
