Should the regulation of production and distribution in a socialist society be based on the law of value? In this article we ask (1) Is this question not based on an ontological understanding of labour, on a rational and therefore conceptual understanding of abstract labour and, ultimately, a transhistorical understanding of value and the so-called ‘law of value’?; (2) is it not precisely this deception and power of the fetishism of commodities that, by eternalising value and the ‘law of value’, limits the horizon and perspective of ‘realistic politics’ (Realpolitik)?; and (3) whether this question does not treat socialism as a political situation where the solution to its ‘economic’ problem is unrelated to its very identity? In order to answer these questions, we provide a novel understanding of Marx’s fundamental category of value, its substance, form and magnitude, with the help of the German expression Formgehalt, translated as form-content.
社会主义社会的生产和分配应该以价值规律为基础吗?在本文中,我们要问(1)这个问题不是基于对劳动的本体论理解,基于对抽象劳动的理性的、因而是概念性的理解,并最终基于对价值和所谓“价值规律”的超历史理解吗?(2)不正是这种商品拜物教的欺骗和力量,通过使价值和“价值规律”永世化,限制了“现实政治”(现实政治)的视野和前景吗?(3)这个问题是否没有把社会主义看作一种政治形势,在这种形势下,社会主义的“经济”问题的解决与社会主义本身的特性无关?为了回答这些问题,我们在德语表达Formgehalt(翻译为形式-内容)的帮助下,对马克思关于价值的基本范畴,即其实质、形式和大小,提供了一种新的理解。

The article aims to introduce the works of eminent Iranian Marxist theoretician, Kamal Khosravi, to Western readers. Over the past few decades, Khosravi has written extensively on Marx, Marxism, and Marxist methodology. Through translations and his own writings, he has worked tirelessly to introduce Iranian readers to the rich debates on Marxist methodology and value theory that have developed in the West since the 1960s. More recently, as the lead editor of the Iranian journal Critique, his writings are having an influence on the ongoing social movements as they are being disseminated and discussed amongst activists and labour leaders. In this article, we situate his writings within the developments of Iranian and Western Marxism.
本文旨在向西方读者介绍伊朗著名马克思主义理论家卡迈勒·科斯拉维的著作。在过去的几十年里,科斯拉维撰写了大量关于马克思、马克思主义和马克思主义方法论的著作。通过翻译和自己的作品,他孜孜不倦地向伊朗读者介绍自20世纪60年代以来在西方发展起来的关于马克思主义方法论和价值理论的丰富辩论。最近,作为伊朗《批判》杂志的主编,他的作品正在积极分子和劳工领袖之间传播和讨论,对正在进行的社会运动产生了影响。在本文中,我们将他的著作置于伊朗和西方马克思主义的发展之中。

On the Distribution of Wealth and Capital Ownership; An Empirical Application to OECD Countries around 2019 财富分配与资本所有权;2019年前后对经合组织国家的实证应用

In discussions of the composition of wealth, a common distinction is made between non-financial assets and financial assets. Within the latter category the uncommon distinction is drawn between ‘capital ownership assets’ (referring to ownership in enterprises) and other financial assets. The reason is that capital ownership assets come with a degree of actual or potential economic power – in the sense of having the capacity to significantly influence enterprises’ policies. The article empirically applies this distinction to 24 OECD countries that report uniform data on this (in line with the OECD guidelines). For the OECD average of these countries around 2019, it is shown that whereas the top 10% of households owns 51% of the total net wealth and 68% of the total financial assets, the top 10% owns 85% of the total capital-ownership assets. For individual OECD countries, the last figure ranges from 63% (Greece) to 97% (Lithuania). The figure for the USA is near to the latter, at 94%.
在讨论财富构成时,非金融资产和金融资产之间有一个共同的区别。在后一类中,“资本所有权资产”(指企业所有权)和其他金融资产之间有着不同寻常的区别。原因是资本所有权资产具有一定程度的实际或潜在经济实力,即有能力对企业政策产生重大影响。这篇文章根据经验将这一区别应用于24个经合组织国家,这些国家报告了这方面的统一数据(符合经合组织的指导方针)。2019年前后经合组织对这些国家的平均值显示,尽管前10%的家庭拥有51%的净财富和68%的金融资产,但前10%的人拥有85%的资本所有权资产。对于个别经合组织国家,最后一个数字从63%(希腊)到97%(立陶宛)不等。美国的这一数字接近后者,为94%。

Value, Exchange, and Heinrich’s ‘New Reading of Marx’: Remarks on Marx’s Value-Theory, 1867–72 价值、交换与海因里希的“马克思新解”——评马克思的价值理论,1867-72

The exclusive emergence of value and abstract human labour through exchange of mere products is a fundamental principle within the ‘New Reading of Marx’, especially that of Michael Heinrich. He invokes both Capital and the manuscript Additions and Changes, where Marx revised his value-form analysis for the second edition of Capital. However, this manuscript does not support Heinrich’s view. In the same handwritten manuscript, Marx drafted the subsection on the fetishism of the commodity with two passages that Heinrich claims as evidence for his interpretation. Against this, we elaborate Marx’s understanding of abstract human labour as the specific social character of private labour; it does not result from exchange but rather is its prerequisite. Heinrich’s attempt fails to include demand in the magnitude of value. Finally, he does not explain the value-formation by circulation and production. Rather, his one-sided view of exchange means, by way of its logical implications, that the capitalist production process is no longer the unity of the labour process and the valorisation process, but mere production of use-values.
通过纯粹的产品交换,价值和抽象的人类劳动的排他性出现是“马克思新阅读”中的一个基本原则,尤其是迈克尔·海因里希的原则。他引用了《资本论》和手稿《增与变》,马克思在其中为《资本主义》第二版修改了他的价值形式分析。然而,这份手稿并不支持海因里希的观点。在同一份手写手稿中,马克思起草了关于商品拜物教的小节,其中有两段海因里希声称是他解释的证据。在此基础上,我们阐述了马克思对抽象的人的劳动作为私人劳动的具体社会性质的理解;它不是交换的结果,而是交换的前提。海因里希的尝试没有将需求纳入价值的大小。最后,他没有解释流通和生产的价值形成。相反,他的片面交换观通过其逻辑含义意味着,资本主义生产过程不再是劳动过程和价值化过程的统一,而只是使用价值的生产。

Latin American Development in Historical Perspective 历史视野中的拉丁美洲发展

The paper challenges mainstream theories of Latin American development, showing their theoretical weaknesses and pointing to their role in ideologically mediating the region’s ‘truncated’ capitalism. To that end, the paper presents an alternative view of Latin American development that starts by considering capitalist social reproduction as a worldwide process and regional/national politico-economic development as mediations in the structuring of global capital accumulation. Latin America’s specific variety of capitalism is understood to have emerged from its original transformation by expanding European capital into a place to produce raw materials under favourable natural conditions. On the one hand, this has reduced their price and that of the labour-power directly or indirectly consuming them; on the other, it has resulted in a flow of surplus-value towards the owners of those natural conditions of production. The historical development of Latin American societies has expressed the partial overcoming of that antagonistic relationship between rent-paying capital and rent-appropriating landed property.
这篇论文挑战了拉丁美洲发展的主流理论,展示了它们的理论弱点,并指出了它们在意识形态上调解该地区“被截断”的资本主义方面的作用。为此,本文提出了拉丁美洲发展的另一种观点,首先将资本主义社会再生产视为一个世界性的过程,将区域/国家政治经济发展视为全球资本积累结构的中介。据了解,拉丁美洲特有的资本主义是从其最初的转型中产生的,它将欧洲资本扩大到一个在有利的自然条件下生产原材料的地方。一方面,这降低了他们的价格以及直接或间接消耗他们的劳动力的价格;另一方面,它导致了剩余价值流向那些自然生产条件的所有者。拉丁美洲社会的历史发展表明,部分克服了支付租金的资本和占用租金的土地之间的对立关系。

The Planning Daemon: Future Desire and Communal Production 计划精灵:未来的欲望与社区生产

Within the planning discourse two poles have materialised over the last decades: a participatory ideal guided by substantive rationality, opposed to an algorithmic governmentality subordinated to instrumental reason. This rift within socialist thought is also observable when it comes to the discovery of needs. The paper understands this discovery procedure primarily as a forecasting problem and demonstrates how many authors dedicated to a participatory planning process call for consumers to write down their desires in the form of wish lists. As a response to this epistemically questionable discovery procedure, the state of the art in capitalist demand-forecasting at enterprises like Amazon is presented, where machine-learning algorithms excel at modelling interrelated time series on a global level by extrapolating demand patterns in real-time. The paper closes with a proposal to reconfigure this predictive apparatus for socialist ends and raises questions concerned with the political implications of centralising decision-making in black-box algorithms.
在过去的几十年里,规划话语中出现了两极:一种以实质理性为指导的参与式理想,而不是服从于工具理性的算法治理。当涉及到需求的发现时,社会主义思想中的这种分歧也是可以观察到的。本文将这一发现过程主要理解为一个预测问题,并展示了有多少致力于参与式规划过程的作者呼吁消费者以愿望清单的形式写下他们的愿望。作为对这一认识上有问题的发现过程的回应,介绍了亚马逊等企业资本主义需求预测的最新技术,其中机器学习算法擅长通过实时外推需求模式,在全球范围内对相互关联的时间序列进行建模。论文最后提出了一项为社会主义目的重新配置这种预测装置的建议,并提出了有关黑匣子算法中集中决策的政治含义的问题。

Pandemic Capitalism: Metabolic Rift, World-Ecology Crossing Dialectical Biology 大流行资本主义:代谢裂痕,世界生态跨越辩证生物学

In this article, I contrast two of the main schools of thought within eco-Marxism, namely Metabolic Rift (MR) and World-Ecology (WE). These differ above all else in their accounts of the ontological status of society and nature. The Covid-19 pandemic constitutes a moment of concretisation of this long-standing debate, which is able to dissolve at least in part its issues. The article consists of four parts. I begin with a summary of the two schools of thought and their core stances, before proceeding to unpack their respective theoretical points of contention. I subsequently proceed to explore the conceptualisation of health according to the Marxist scientists Richard Levins and Richard Lewontin through the model of dialectical biology. In the third section, I unpack the conceptualisation of the Covid-19 pandemic by the epidemiologist Robert Wallace, before finally concluding with the contrasts of the two schools in the light of dialectical biology.
在这篇文章中,我对比了生态马克思主义中的两个主要学派,即代谢裂缝(MR)和世界生态学(WE)。这些在对社会和自然本体论地位的描述上最为不同。新冠肺炎大流行构成了这场长期辩论的具体化时刻,这场辩论至少能够部分解决其问题。本文由四个部分组成。首先,我对这两个学派及其核心立场进行了总结,然后分析了它们各自的理论争论点。随后,我根据马克思主义科学家Richard Levins和Richard Lewontin的观点,通过辩证生物学的模型来探索健康的概念。在第三部分中,我解释了流行病学家罗伯特·华莱士对新冠肺炎大流行的概念,最后以辩证生物学的角度对比了这两个学派。

Missives for the Future? Michael Löwy’s Close Encounters with the US Left 未来的导弹?迈克尔·勒维与美国左派的亲密接触
IF 0.6 4区 社会学 0 PHILOSOPHY Pub Date : 2023-03-09 DOI: 10.1163/1569206x-20232035

The oeuvre of Brazilian-born and Parisian-educated Michael Löwy is widely recognised as the achievement of an exacting revolutionary cultural worker who integrates theory with his political duties, and labours hard at his craft so that the poetic imagination can reclaim and thereby re-enchant the reified reality of capitalist modernity. Nevertheless, when we come to Löwy’s reputation in the United States we face a curious situation. There is no doubt that his work is known and respected among many activists and scholars. Yet from the perspective of the needs of the Marxist Left, the disparity is striking between what Löwy has to offer as a militant thinker and the actuality of his impact. The search for an explanation of such a discrepancy must begin with a preliminary stab at what I regard as a ‘Löwyian’ interpretation of Michael Löwy’s life and writings. The method includes an exploration of his possible ‘elective affinities’, defined in a broad sense, with the cultural and political work of US radicalism since the 1960s. Are there analogies, kinships, or attractions of meaning that have entered into a relationship of reciprocal appeal and influence? In the end, however, I conclude that the disproportion between potential and actual stems largely from fractional perceptions of his accomplishment that are rooted in the peculiarities of US Marxist thought in general and of US Trotskyism in particular. Such partial and one-sided assessments are a profound barrier because the achievement of Michael Löwy needs to be understood in its totality.
出生于巴西、受过巴黎教育的Michael Löwy的作品被广泛认为是一位严谨的革命文化工作者的成就,他将理论与政治职责相结合,并努力掌握自己的技艺,使诗意的想象能够重现,从而重新赋予资本主义现代性的具体现实以魅力。然而,当我们谈到Löwy在美国的声誉时,我们面临着一个奇怪的情况。毫无疑问,他的作品在许多活动家和学者中是众所周知和受人尊敬的。然而,从马克思主义左派的需求来看,Löwy作为一名激进思想家所能提供的东西与他影响力的现实之间存在着惊人的差距。对这种差异的解释必须从我认为是对迈克尔·勒维的生活和著作的“勒维式”解读开始。该方法包括探索他可能与20世纪60年代以来美国激进主义的文化和政治工作有着广义的“选择性亲和力”。是否有相似之处、亲属关系或意义吸引力已进入相互吸引力和影响力的关系?然而,最后,我得出结论,潜在和实际之间的不均衡很大程度上源于对他的成就的部分看法,这些看法植根于美国马克思主义思想的特点,尤其是美国托洛茨基主义的特点。这种片面和片面的评估是一个深刻的障碍,因为需要全面了解迈克尔·勒维的成就。

Such partial and one-sided assessments are a profound barrier because the achievement of Michael Löwy needs to be understood in its totality.","PeriodicalId":46231,"journal":{"name":"Historical Materialism-Research in Critical Marxist Theory","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46761211","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This essay explores the theory of the plastic object as it was developed by the Peruvian art critic Mirko Lauer in the 1970s and 1980s, in dialogue with other ideas related to the Teoría Social del Arte (Social Theory of Art) developed in Latin America. Focusing on the Peruvian cultural debate, the author reconstructs Lauer’s trajectory and emphasises his critique of ‘Marxist aesthetics’, and explores them as conceptual tools for discussing the horizon of contemporary art today.
本文探讨了秘鲁艺术评论家米尔科·劳尔在20世纪70年代和80年代发展起来的塑性物体理论,并与拉丁美洲发展起来的社会艺术理论(Teoría Social del Arte)进行了对话。围绕秘鲁文化辩论,作者重建了劳尔的轨迹,强调了他对“马克思主义美学”的批判,并将其作为讨论当今当代艺术视野的概念工具进行了探索。
