对于“第一种含义的社会必要劳动时间”的新认识

A New Definition of the "Socially Necessary Labor Time in Its First Interpretation"

随着商品经济的发展,生产单位商品所需要的社会必要劳动时间将变得越来越难以计算,甚至无法计算,由此,必须对传统的与商品价值相关的一些经济范畴进行新的审视。其中,货币的"价值尺度"职能应表述为"价格尺度"职能。再有,由于无法论证从一个较长的历史时期和全社会范围来看商品的总价格等于总价值,由此,价值规律的"等价交换"要求应表述为"等价格交换"。实际上,商品的交换价值才是商品的真正价值。

With the development of commodity economy, it becomes more and more difficult or even unable to determine the socially necessary labor time, thus arising new definitions of the traditional economic terms concerning commodity value. Among them, the standard of value, as one of the functions of money, should be interpreted as the standard of price. And, due to the inability to prove that, by taking the society as a whole, and from a comparatively long period, the overall price of commodity is equivalent to its overall value, the exchange of equal value, as the law of value, should also be interpreted as the exchange of equal price. Actually, only the exchange value of commodity is its real value.
