对哲学“物质”概念的思考

物质,这个古老的唯物主义哲学概念,经过马克思主义经典作家恩格斯和列宁的"扬弃",曾使辩证唯物主义和历史唯物主义的发展获得了新的生机和活力。列宁的物质概念从提出到现在已近一个世纪。20世纪的科学技术取得了突飞猛进的发展,人类社会也发生了翻天覆地的变化,微电子技术特别是发达的电脑网络技术将我们带入数字化空间。人类已经迈入21世纪,进入信息化社会,跨入知识经济时代,而我们的物质概念依旧停留在20世纪初的水平上。我认为,对物质概念进行新的"扬弃"的时机和条件早已成熟,文章通过对恩格斯与列宁的物质概念的追述、内涵与外延的比较与分析,找出其时代的局限性与逻辑上的缺陷或不足,并在此基础上提出了存在、实在(物质)、虚在、客观存在、非客观存在、现实性空间、非现实性空间和实践诸范畴,试图赋予物质(即实在)以新的意义和时代特色。
