Exploring Social Formation Theory from a Marxist Perspective

马克思的社会形态理论是在深入剖析资本主义社会的过程中逐步构建起来的，它是一套全面阐述社会历史发展规律的学说。本文通过追溯马克思主义社会形态理论渊源，梳理形成过程，阐释主要内容，对其擘画的社会形态演进规律进行剖析。面对当代社会发展中的新问题，如全球化、数字经济引发的新变革等，基于马克思主义理论展开批判性重构，探寻社会形态理论发展新路径。研究旨在深化对马克思主义社会形态理论的理解，使其更好指导当代社会实践。The development of Marx’s theory of social form was a gradual process, emerging from an in-depth analysis of capitalist society. This theory constitutes a comprehensive expanse of doctrines that expound upon the laws governing social and historical development. This paper traces the origin of Marxist social form theory, sorting out the formation process, explaining the main content, and analysing the laws of social form evolution drawn by it. In light of contemporary social challenges, such as globalisation and the transformative impact of the digital economy, this study undertakes a critical reconstruction of the theory within the framework of Marxist ideology. It explores novel avenues for the advancement of the theory of social formations. The study’s objective is twofold: firstly, to enhance the comprehension of Marxist theory of social form, thereby ensuring its effective guidance of contemporary society; and secondly, to facilitate the progression of human social form towards a more advanced state.
