资本逻辑是资本主义社会的“普照的光”

The Logic of Capital is the “Universal Light” of the Capitalist Society

马克思认为,在每一种社会形态中,都有一种生产部门占主导地位和起决定作用。这个占主导地位的生产部门及其生产关系,制约和决定着其他生产部门及其生产关系。它好像一种"普照的光",掩盖了其他一切生产部门及其生产关系的色彩,改变了它们的特点,使它们从属于占主导地位的生产部门及其生产关系。产业资本是资本主义社会占主导地位的生产形式,即资本主义社会的"普照的光",资本的其他形式,包括商业资本、生息资本、土地所有权等等,都从属于产业资本。物的依赖性社会即资本主义社会的"普照的光"即资本逻辑,就在于它把资本主义生产关系这种人与人之间的关系变成物与物之间的关系,形成拜物教,马克思在《资本论》中依次批判了商品的拜物教性质、货币的拜物教性质、资本的拜物教性质和社会总资本的拜物教性质。生产劳动和非生产劳动的区分必须以资本主义生产关系为依据,即必须服从资本逻辑,是否为资本家生产剩余价值的雇佣劳动这个资本逻辑,就成为区分生产劳动和非生产劳动的"普照的光"。

According to Marx,in each social form,there is one production sector that dominates and plays a decisive role.This dominant production sector and its production relations restrict and determine other production sectors and their production relations.As a"universal light",it overshadows all the other production sectors and their production relations,changes their characteristics,and makes them subordinate to the dominant production sector and its production relations.Industrial capital is the dominant form of production in the capitalist society,or the"universal light"of the capitalist society,to which the other forms of capital,including commercial capital,interest-bearing capital,land ownership,are subordinate."The universal light"of a material-dependent society,or the capitalist society,is the logic of capital,for it turns the relationship between people in the relationship of capitalist production into relationship between things,hence creating fetishism.Marx in his masterpiece,The Capital,exposed the nature of the fetishism in commodities,money,capital and total social capital.The distinction between productive labor and non-productive labor must be based on capitalist production relations,following the logic of capital.In other words,the logic whether the wage labor produces surplus value for capitalists becomes the"universal light"that distinguishes productive labor from nonproductive labor.
