New Quality Productive Forces from the Perspective of Historical Materialism:
From agricultural civilization,industrial civilization to information civilization,the leap of productivity is the thread embedded in the civilization revolution of human society.Productivity is the essential power of human beings and epitomizes human subjectivity.As the core theme of the studies of historical materialism,Marx's theory of productive forces reveals the fundamental defect of capitalist alienated labor,namely,the separation and antagonism between the human and material factors in productive forces,and at the same time clarifies the one-sided understanding of historical materialism in the refutation of the"theory advocating the omnipotence of productive forces".From the productive forces to the new quality productive forces,the latter has the general characteristics suggested by Marx's theory of productive forces,but also contain new manifestations,new qualities and new connotations in line with the development requirements of the times.The new quality productive forces signify the advanced productivity with the unity of lawfulness and purposefulness,the innovative productivity with technological innovation and"scientific production",and the higher-order productivity which shows the unity of gradual progress and quantum leaps.Examining the new quality productive forces from the perspective of historical materialism is conducive to accurately grasping its basic composition and connotative characteristics and clarifying the practical path for accelerating the formation of the new quality productive forces,which is of great theoretical significance and practical value.
