Abstract: Marxs hominological research is a unity of individualism， collectivism and historicism. However， the collective approach totally repudiating the analysis of individualism has long been regarded as the classics of Marxism， which once became the methodological principle of hominology concerning contemporary Chinas political， economic， legal， and historical theories. This is a mistake on Marxist hominological analysis; however， it became the theoretical source of a series of leftist errors and social practice errors as well as the important methodological foundation of the planned economy. It has become an in-depth cultural obstacle to establishing the prerequisites of the socialist market economy and the relevant legal system and the basic concepts of public administration. Therefore， recognizing and establishing the triple dimensions of Marxist analysis of hominology is extraordinarily significant to perfect the socialist market economy and the corresponding law-ruling civilization.

Key words: individualism, collectivism, historicism, hominology
