The Development and Creativeness of the Value Theory

What is value? How it is originated? What significance and functions does it have? What is value theory? How to recognize philosophical,economic and practical significance of value theory? All these are concepts pressed for clarification,because value is in actual a composite concept which includes both most essential meaning of philosophy and meaning of economics.Value can be approached in perspective of either philosophical meaning or economic meaning,such as the value of life and value of commodity respectively.Thus probe into value may involve three issues: 1) essence,property and composition of value;2) economic meaning of value;and 3) evaluation and utilization of value in its modern sense,which is what this paper attempts to focus on.
