Three-Dimensional Integration: The Framework for the Generalized Reproduction of Human Society

This paper broadly summarizes the reproduction of human society as a “three-dimensional integration” cognitive framework. The first dimension involves the reproduction of material resources essential for human society’s survival, continuity, and development, accompanied by the reproduction of labor, capital, and production relations. The second dimension pertains to the inevitable reproduction of the entire human population as a social entity. The third dimension refers to the reproduction of human thoughts and culture rooted in the fundamental principles of “humanity” and “human dignity” based on humanistic logic. The integration or organic combination of these three dimensions constitutes the most fundamental issue concerning the survival and development of the “human society” as a living entity. This “three dimensional integration” cognitive framework, in terms of its inherent logical relationships, possesses self-evident, axiomatic qualities that require no proof. However, in the previous academic discussions, a clear and comprehensive cognitive framework has not been formed domestically and internationally. The successive development of human society inherently contains the endogenous driving force of social members’ aspirations and pursuits for a better life and the proposition of supply-side innovative development as a response mechanism to this driving force. Within the generalized reproduction of the three-dimensional integration, there are still difficulties to be overcome and contradictions and conflicts to be resolved. The “humanized” progress in the coordination mechanism within the trinity framework holds perpetual value for pursuit.
