Abstract:Marx discovered the essence of wealth and proposed that wealth has three basic attributes, namely, social attribute, individual attribute and subjective attribute. This is the strongest proposition about wealth: wealth is the historical production of the “free individuality” of “social individuals”. To understand the social sharing of wealth and common prosperity from the perspective of social individuals, we need to adhere to the people-centered development philosophy, promote common prosperity through high-quality development, properly handle the relationship between efficiency and fairness, and ensure the quality of both material and spiritual life. To understand the subjectivity freedom and the third distribution of wealth from the perspective of free individuality, we need to be aware that the third distribution is supplementary to the first and the second distribution, and that it is voluntary. On the one hand, we should properly handle the relationship between the third distribution and the first and the second distribution, and make it clear that the third distribution is only supplementary to the first and the second distribution, and that it is by no means the mainstream distribution to achieve common prosperity. On the other hand, we should distinguish the three different voluntary behaviors (for utilitarian purpose, for self-realization, and for no purpose) in the third distribution and its historical significance. Promoting people’s all-round development along with common prosperity is not only the essence of Marx’s view of wealth, but also the fundamental requirement of the development of socialism with Chinese characteristics. It best interprets the historical and philosophical significance of Marx’s view of human’s free and comprehensive development from the understanding of the essence of wealth, and shows us the way to understand the historical and social significance of common prosperity and the third distribution.
