The article is devoted to the methodological problems of the political economy of socialism. It provides a categorical distinction between the structural and dynamic dependencies of the political-economic system. On the one hand, structural dependence has an object–subject direction, ascending from productive forces to production relations and from them to state power. On the other hand, the direct opposite, subject–object direction is inherent in dynamic dependence, descending from state power to production relations and the conscious use of their objective laws for the development of productive forces. This subject–object dependence reaches its fullest embodiment under conditions of strong power, the standard of which is the political-economic system of contemporary China.
这篇文章专门讨论社会主义政治经济学的方法论问题。它明确区分了政治经济体系的结构性依赖关系和动态依赖关系。一方面,结构依赖具有主客体的方向,从生产力上升到生产关系,再从生产关系上升到国家权力。另一方面,与之相反的主客体导向是动态依赖所固有的,它从国家权力下降到生产关系,并自觉地利用生产关系的客观规律来发展生产力。这种主客体依赖在强大的权力条件下得到了最充分的体现,而强大的权力的标准就是当代中国的政治经济体制。

Ricardo’s Labor Theory of Value Is Alive And Well in Contemporary Capitalism 里卡多的劳动价值论在当代资本主义中的生命力

This article, by utilizing Ricardo’s numerical examples, derives theoretical statements about the deviations of relative values (prices) from relative labor times. These deviations result from the presence of capital and the distributive variables (rate of profit and wage) and production (turnover) times. Furthermore, Ricardo argued that the intertemporal changes in relative (market) prices were no different from the respective changes in natural (or equilibrium) prices. Both depend primarily on changes in unit labor values and secondarily on capital intensities. The article continues by testing the extent to which Ricardo’s thesis holds by utilizing input-output data from the US and Chinese economies. The derived empirical results lend overwhelming support to Ricardo’s thesis, which is conformable with major aspects of Marx’s theory of value.
本文通过里卡多的数值例子,导出了相对价值(价格)与相对劳动时间偏差的理论表述。这些偏差是由于存在资本和分配变量(利润率和工资率)以及生产(周转)时间造成的。此外,里卡多认为,相对(市场)价格的跨期变化与自然(或均衡)价格的相应变化没有什么不同。两者主要取决于单位劳动价值的变化,其次取决于资本强度。文章继续利用美国和中国经济的投入产出数据来检验Ricardo的论文的成立程度。所得的实证结果有力地支持了里卡多的理论,这与马克思价值论的主要方面是一致的。

F. Moseley
This article is a response to two other articles in this symposium by Tiago Camarinha Lopes and David Laibman. The article focuses mainly on the important question that both Camarinha Lopes and Laibman address in their articles: what does the labor theory of value do that other theories cannot do? In other words, what important phenomena of capitalist economies can Marx’s theory based on the labor theory of value explain that other theories, especially Sraffian theory, cannot explain? Sections 1 and 2 discuss Camarinha Lopes’ article, Section 3 discusses Laibman’s article, and Section 4 presents my answer to this important question of what does the labor theory of value do.
本文是对Tiago Camarinha Lopes和David Laibman在本次研讨会上的另外两篇文章的回应。本文主要关注Camarinha Lopes和Laibman在文章中都提到的一个重要问题:劳动价值论做了什么,而其他理论做不到?换言之,马克思以劳动价值论为基础的理论能够解释资本主义经济的哪些重要现象,而其他理论,特别是斯拉夫理论却无法解释?第1节和第2节讨论了Camarinha Lopes的文章,第3节讨论了Laibman的文章,而第4节则给出了我对劳动价值理论的重要问题的回答。

The purpose of this study is to identify the causes of and solutions to the shortage of human resources in Japan’s construction industry from the perspective of the transformation of the capital–labor relations. The findings are as follows. The main reason for the shortage of human resources is the low level of working conditions brought about by the structure of multiple subcontracting and the reproduction of day laborers as a low-wage sector. Therefore, correction of this structure is required. In the 2000s, it became clear that dependent contractors and foreign workers were forming a new low-wage sector. In light of the above, correction of the multi-layered subcontracting structure and improvement of working conditions in the low-wage sector are required to solve the human resource shortage.
本研究旨在从劳资关系变迁的角度,找出日本建筑行业人力资源短缺的成因及解决之道。研究结果如下。人力资源短缺的主要原因是多重分包的结构和日工作为低工资部门的再生产所带来的低水平的劳动条件。因此,需要对这种结构进行修正。在21世纪初,很明显,依赖承包商和外国工人正在形成一个新的低工资行业。因此,要解决人力资源短缺的问题,需要纠正多层次的分包结构,改善低工资部门的劳动条件。

We examine the paradigm shift from that of the transformation model to that of stochastic profit models. Some of the anomalies undermining the transformation model are given graphically. In the last two sections we present volume II of Capital as an alternative starting point for thinking about the relation between value and price.
我们考察了从转换模型到随机利润模型的范式转换。图中给出了破坏转换模型的一些异常。在最后两节中,我们将《资本论》第二卷作为思考价值与价格关系的另一个起点。

Value Production, Measurement, and Distribution under Digital Capitalism 数字资本主义下的价值生产、计量和分配
IF 0.3 Q4 ECONOMICS Pub Date : 2022-03-25 DOI: 10.13169/worlrevipoliecon.12.4.0472

Western Marxist scholars take “immaterial labor,” “audience labor” and “prosumer labor” as the core categories to explain the problem of the value creation and profit sources of digital capital in online production and consumption activities in the Web 2.0 era. By analyzing the production process of digital capitalism, they have come to the conclusion that contemporary capitalist production has taken on an overall “novel” character. On the basis of the special cost structure of digital capitalist production, the increasing “fuzziness” of production time and living time, and the disappearance of the boundary between paid labor and unpaid labor under digital capitalism, they draw the conclusion that the law of value has become invalid in the era of “digital production and consumption.” However, once digital labor and its results are placed within Marx’s analytical framework, and are interpreted in terms of such categories as “direct production process of capitalism,” “fixed capital accumulation pattern” and “classification of productive labor and non-productive labor,” it becomes clear that the brilliant achievements of digital capital are best understood as the results of innovative modes of surplus-value possession or distribution, rather than of new methods of surplus-value creation, and that the conclusion that the law of value has failed represents a misreading or misinterpretation of Marx’s labor theory of value. Although the digital capitalist mode of production is serving partially to dissipate the role of the law of value, this law as the general principle regulating global capitalist production remains effective in the contemporary world.
西方马克思主义学者以“非物质劳动”、“受众劳动”和“产消劳动”为核心范畴来解释Web 2.0时代数字资本在网络生产和消费活动中的价值创造和利润来源问题。通过分析数字资本主义的生产过程,他们得出结论:当代资本主义生产呈现出整体的“新颖性”。基于数字资本主义生产的特殊成本结构、生产时间与生活时间日益“模糊”、有偿劳动与无偿劳动边界的消失,他们得出了价值规律在“数字生产与消费”时代已经失效的结论。然而,一旦将数字劳动及其结果置于马克思的分析框架中,并根据“资本主义的直接生产过程”、“固定资本积累模式”和“生产劳动和非生产劳动的分类”等类别进行解释,很明显,数字资本的辉煌成就最好被理解为剩余价值占有或分配的创新模式的结果,而不是剩余价值创造的新方法,价值规律失败的结论代表了对马克思劳动价值论的误读或误解。虽然数字资本主义生产方式在一定程度上消解了价值规律的作用,但价值规律作为调节全球资本主义生产的一般原则在当代世界仍然有效。

In this article, it is argued that the Fourth Industrial Revolution (I4.0) is the result of a technology fusion between the following factors that define an economic epoch: (a) The production systems and the type of tools these systems are employing; (b) The communication technologies as well as the means used for information storage, processing, sensing and knowledge creation: the information and communication technologies (ICT); (c) The energy generation and distribution systems used, and (d) The biotechnology. The thesis of this article is that ICT is the predominant factor in the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. To justify this claim, the progress of the scientific fields of which this factor consists is elaborated, and its impact on other factors is highlighted with emphasis on the societal impact. It is claimed that the eventual fusion of these factors leads to a single technological continuum. The eventual fusion of all factors is made possible because they all exploit a common material base while we are entering the era where we can regulate and superintend a vast number of heterogeneous technologies via open software. The eventual fusion of these factors will lead to a single technological continuum, and it will redefine the notions of “production” and “work,” as it will allow overcoming the over-fragmentation in specialization, while it will reshape our cities, our personal lives and our relationship with science.
本文认为,第四次工业革命(I4.0)是定义经济时代的以下因素之间技术融合的结果:(a)生产系统和这些系统使用的工具类型;(b) 通信技术以及用于信息存储、处理、传感和知识创造的手段:信息和通信技术;(c) 所使用的能源生产和分配系统,以及(d)生物技术。本文认为信息通信技术是第四次工业革命背景下的主导因素。为了证明这一说法,详细阐述了这一因素所属科学领域的进展,并强调了它对其他因素的影响,强调了社会影响。据称,这些因素的最终融合导致了一个单一的技术连续体。所有因素的最终融合之所以成为可能,是因为它们都利用了一个共同的物质基础,而我们正进入一个可以通过开放软件监管和监督大量异构技术的时代。这些因素的最终融合将导致一个单一的技术连续体,它将重新定义“生产”和“工作”的概念,因为它将克服专业化的过度碎片化,同时它将重塑我们的城市、我们的个人生活以及我们与科学的关系。

The Binary Path of Risks in Pension Systems and Political Pressure 养老保险制度风险的二元路径与政治压力
IF 0.3 Q4 ECONOMICS Pub Date : 2022-02-17 DOI: 10.13169/worlrevipoliecon.12.2.0255
Ishay Wolf
In this paper, we offer an explanation for cyclical reforms to pension systems, based on the experience of countries in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) over the last three decades. We conclude that in making the transition to funded pension design, governments not only transfer longevity and fiscal risks to the individual but also absorb risks transferred from the public, with each market actor transferring undiversifiable risks to the other. This pathway of hidden risks, which has not previously been discussed in the literature, stems from a public expectation that citizens will enjoy risk premiums and adequate old-age benefits, an expectation that evolves into political pressure. The outcomes of this risk path are realized in financial transfers, such as means-tested social security and minimum pension guarantees. Consequently, funded pension designs converge naturally into a new landscape paradigm of risk-sharing, with intergenerational and intragenerational components. Financial crises such as the one accompanying the recent COVID-19 pandemic foster the convergence process.
在本文中,我们根据中欧和东欧国家过去三十年的经验,对养老金制度的周期性改革进行了解释。我们得出的结论是,在向资助养老金设计过渡的过程中,政府不仅将寿命和财政风险转移给个人,还吸收了从公众转移的风险,每个市场参与者都将不可逆的风险转移给了另一个。这种隐性风险的途径以前从未在文献中讨论过,它源于公众对公民将享受风险溢价和足够的养老福利的期望,这种期望演变成了政治压力。这种风险路径的结果是通过财政转移实现的,例如经过经济状况调查的社会保障和最低养老金保障。因此,受资助的养老金设计自然融合成一种新的风险分担格局,包括代际和代际组成部分。最近新冠肺炎大流行引发的金融危机促进了趋同进程。

International Structural Competitiveness and the Hierarchy in the World Economy 国际结构竞争力与世界经济的等级制
IF 0.3 Q4 ECONOMICS Pub Date : 2022-02-17 DOI: 10.13169/worlrevipoliecon.12.2.0195

The aim of this paper is to determine the level of competitiveness of national economies and their resulting hierarchy in the world economy. Based on the assumption that there is a structural relationship between the competitiveness of a national economy and the level of its economic development, we identify the main structural factors of international competitiveness. These factors are the degree of diversification of the productive structure of a national economy and the strength of its domestic sectoral productive linkages—which are both related to the level of industrial and technological development and the technological structure of exports. The Technologically Advanced Domestic Value Added in Exports, which condenses the above structural factors, is proposed as a measure of the level of competitiveness of national economies. This measure is implemented in order to determine the hierarchical position of 43 economies in terms of their international competitiveness. In addition, another measure of international competitiveness, the Economic Complexity Index, is examined and tested. When comparing the examined economies’ hierarchical positions obtained by using the two measures, a high correlation and a strong positive linear relationship between them is revealed.
本文的目的是确定各国经济的竞争力水平及其在世界经济中的等级制度。基于国家经济竞争力与其经济发展水平之间存在结构性关系的假设,我们确定了国际竞争力的主要结构性因素。这些因素是国民经济生产结构的多样化程度及其国内部门生产联系的强度,这两者都与工业和技术发展水平以及出口的技术结构有关。技术先进的国内出口增加值浓缩了上述结构因素,被提出作为衡量国民经济竞争力水平的指标。实施这项措施是为了确定43个经济体在国际竞争力方面的等级地位。此外,还对另一项衡量国际竞争力的指标——经济复杂性指数进行了审查和检验。当比较通过使用这两种衡量标准获得的被调查经济体的等级地位时,发现它们之间存在高度相关性和强烈的正线性关系。

This paper considers student employees in tourism in Antalya, Turkey. The appearance of undergraduate students in the labour market in Turkey has been an observable fact, especially since the beginning of the 2000s. One can see them in many different areas of the labour market. What matters in terms of labour demand is their student status, not their skill, experience, etc. The tourism industry is one of the economic activities in which undergraduate students are densely employed. Undergraduate students are employed informally for casual jobs by agencies functioning like employment agencies, but they are not officially employment agencies. The tourism industry in Antalya has a seasonal nature, and of course employment in this area is seasonal as well. However, in some seasons, there is an instant labour demand, and undergraduate students are viewed as a good labour supply for this demand. Currently, no scientific work has been carried out on this issue. This paper intends to present some preliminary findings on student employment.
本文以土耳其安塔利亚旅游业的学生雇员为研究对象。本科生在土耳其劳动力市场的出现是一个显而易见的事实,尤其是自2000年代初以来。人们可以在劳动力市场的许多不同领域看到它们。就劳动力需求而言,重要的是他们的学生身份,而不是他们的技能、经验等。旅游业是大学生就业密集的经济活动之一。大学生被类似职业介绍所的机构非正式地雇佣做临时工作,但它们不是正式的职业介绍所。安塔利亚的旅游业具有季节性,当然该地区的就业也是季节性的。然而,在某些季节,有即时的劳动力需求,本科生被视为满足这种需求的良好劳动力供应。目前,还没有关于这个问题的科学研究。本文旨在提出一些关于学生就业的初步调查结果。
