人道主义作为一种思想体系,肇始于资本主义之前,成熟于资本主义之后。前资产阶级人道主义则为人道主义的初级形态。初级人道主义的突出表现就是早期西方的人道主义。这种形态人道主义的价值取向是以人性向善及社会风气的净化作为自己的出场路径。西方早期人道主义思想无疑应作为马克思主义人道主义的思想源头。 Humanitarianism, as a system of thought, started before capitalism and after capitalism. Former bourgeois humanism is the primary form of humanitarian. The outstanding manifestation of primary humanism is the early Western humanitarianism. This form of humanitarian value orientation is based on human nature and social cleanliness as their path to play. The early western humanitarianism should undoubtedly serve as the source of Marxist humanitarianism.
