A Research Review on Lukács’s View of History

Wenjie Zhang, Jinfeng Cao

Abstract


Lukács’s exploration of Marxist historical philosophy not only deepens the understanding of its revolutionary significance but also
paves a new path for the study of Marxism. Although Lukács’s view of history differs from that of Marx, both are rooted in the same theoretical foundation, and Lukács has absorbed and improved Marx’s views. In a particular historical period, his new interpretation has both enriched
Marxism and reflected his unique historical perspective.This article aims to deeply explore the theoretical foundation, core arguments, and the
controversies and criticisms of Lukács’s view of history, thereby summarizing the diverse interpretations of his views in the academic circles
at home and abroad. By analyzing the scholars’ discussions, this article not only presents the current research status of Lukács’s view of history in the academic community but also points out the deficiencies in the research and the possible future development directions. It is hoped
that this will contribute some preliminary and insightful thoughts to the academic exploration and inject new vitality into the understanding of
Lukács’s view of history.
