On the German Ideology:The Idea of the Social Division of Labor and the Relationship between the Mode of Production
The mode of production is the core category of historical materialism.In German Ideology,Marx and Engels combined the social division of labor with productive forces and forms of communication,emphasizing that the social division of labor can improve labor efficiency and promote the development of productive forces while in turn promoting its own continuous refinement,pointing out that different stages of social division of labor are different stages of ownership,which will lead to one-sided development of people and class contradictions while promoting social progress.The ideas on the relationship between the social division of labor and the mode of production in the German Ideology constitute the cornerstone of the grand ideological theory of historical materialism,and at the same time provide valuable ideological wealth for the implementation of the people-centered thought and the new development concept.
