Abstract

The author points out that prior to Marx understanding of practice of modern philosophy was based on society of townspeople. It was Marx who discovered the nature of philosophical practice as being of revolution and realistic criticism, claiming it the realistic basis of philosophy. Thus a fundamental revolution of philosophy was completed. In the light of this theory, reliability of philosophy does not lie in the prerequisite of unquestionable logic, but in reasonably understanding practice in reality. Practice is the origin of dialectics, and revolutionary and critical activities conform to the spirit of dialectics. The author elaborates that practice is the interactive process between man and nature and interactive process among human beings. The fact that these two relations may function as media of interaction makes the development of practice the dialectic historical process of alienation and sublating alienation.
