市民社会是西方近代社会转型的根本问题, 市民社会问题是引发马克思哲学变革的问题意识, 也是当代中国“现代性”社会转型所要面对的一个基本理论问题。把市民社会研究(批判) 作为马克思主义哲学研究中的一个基本问题意识, 可以推进当代中国马克思主义哲学研究范式的转变和自身内在理论逻辑的变革。同时, 通过对市民社会问题的马克思主义审理, 在当代中国社会转型这个重大的理论与现实问题上可以发出马克思主义的声音, 从而沟通马克思主义与当代中国社会的关系, 导引出马克思主义哲学在当代真正出场, 体现出马克思主义理论与实践相统一的理论特质。

The civil society is a fundamental issue in the modern Western social transition, and also an essential theoretical issue that contemporary China's social transition of "modernity" is confronted with.This issue is a kind of problem consciousness inviting Marx' philosophical reform, and this category is a prototype of Marx' concept of capitalism.The historical development of modern civil society provides a historical horizon for the occurrence of Marxist philosophy.Taking the study (criticism) of civil society as a basic problem consciousness in the study of Marxist philosophy can promote a transformation of the current Chinese research paradigm of Marxist philosophy and a change of its own inherent theoretical logic.
