Abstract

The word is one of the concepts which people often use without giving a definite meaning. It’s necessary for people to make clear various misunderstandings on the concept of value in order to set up a basic consensus, and this paper tries to investigate such consensus. First of all, value is not equal to use-value; secondly, the objective value-relationship differs greatly from the subjective value-judgment; thirdly, the critical value-pluralism is more rational than the natural value-pluralism; fourthly, we should choose the revised value-system of modernity rather than value-system of modernity.
