从马克思恩格斯文明理论看人类文明新形态及其世界认同路径

New Form of Human Civilization and Its Identification Path from Perspective of Marx and Engels'Civilization Theory

“文明”一词是由18世纪法国思想家提出的,与“野蛮”状态相对而言,用来描述人类摆脱野蛮而进入发展水平较高的进步状态。马克思恩格斯运用历史唯物主义的理论和方法,揭示出文明的运行实质上是由新形态代替旧形态的运动过程。其中,生产力和生产关系、经济基础和上层建筑之间的矛盾运动是人类文明进步的根本动因;人类实践的发展使文明发生着形态方面的变化和进步;人类交往范围的扩大是人类文明革新的重要条件。中国式人类文明新形态的形成,有力验证了马克思恩格斯文明理论的科学性和真理性。中国式人类文明新形态要获得普遍认同,需要与世界各国不同的文明进行交流和互鉴,既为自己提供滋养,又为他国提供借鉴,由此推进整个人类文明的共同进步。

The term“civilization”was proposed by French thinkers in the 18th century relative to the“barbaric”state.It is used to describe the progress of mankind from barbarism to a higher level of development.Marx and Engels used the theories and methods of historical materialism to revealed that the operation of civilization is essentially a movement process of replacing the old form with the new form.Among them,the contradictory movement between productivity and production relations,economic foundation and superstructure is the fundamental motivation for the progress of human civilization;the development of human practice has brought about changes and progress in the form of civilization;the expansion of the scope of human communication is an important condition for the innovation of human civilization.The formation of a new form of Chinese human civilization has effectively verified the scientific and truth of Marx and Engels'civilization theory.If the new form of Chinese human civilization is to be universally recognized by the world,it needs to communicate and learn from different civilizations of the world,in order to provide nourishment for themselves on the one hand and reference for other countries on the other hand,so as to promote the common progress of the whole human civilization.
