  • Abstract: 

    The core issue of the debate on Engels' two kinds of production is people. The person in Engels' "two productions" refers not only to natural persons, but also to collective persons as "units" and persons as the personality of social organizations. The true meaning of the "two productions" mentioned by Engels refers to the production of material materials and the production of people who are the main body of material material production. Marx's historical materialism is a theory about material materials and their subject production. There is no opposition between Engels and Marx.
