Young Marx's Reactualization and Historical Self-Consciousness of Hegel's Critical Approach
In his Critique of the Hegelian Dialectic and Philosophy as a Whole,Marx explicitly affirmed,for the first time,"the positive aspects of the Hegelian dialectic".This change,which is often overlooked under the theme of critique,marked the begin-ning of Marx's inevitable transition from the Feuerbachian problematic to Hegelian problematic,that is,a shift from deconstructive critique to constructive critique.By affirming and reactualizing the"critical form"of Hegel's concept of alienation and the"nega-tivity as the moving and generating principle",Marx developed a true critical approach and begins to dialectically recognize the his-torical significance and general nature of private property.He astutely observed the isomorphism between Hegel's speculative phi-losophy and the alienating reality of national economics,thereby revealing the universal nature and historical importance of private property.Marx's critique introduced a more realistic dimension of historicity,offering a theoretical opportunity to move beyond Feu-erbach's ethical logic towards Historical Materialism.
