马克思、卡莱茨基与社会主义策略

Marx,Kalecki,and Socialist Strategy

利润挤压论是一种解释20世纪70年代衰退及美国经济长期变化轨迹的理论。利润挤压论一方面与经验趋势并不吻合,另一方面与马克思资本积累理论也相矛盾。通过考察马克思和卡莱茨基针对利润挤压论的批判可以发现,利润挤压论不仅在经济学上是错误的,而且在政治上倾向于削弱工人在阶级斗争中的远大抱负。在马克思和卡莱茨基看来,工人在适当的经济条件下为更高的工资和充分就业而开展的斗争,是削弱资本家阶级的社会权力的前提条件,并构成了向社会主义民主计划制度过渡的现实基础。

The profit squeeze theory is an explanation to the mid 1970＇s recession and subsequent long- run trajectory of the U. S. economy, which not only contradicts with empirical tendencies, but also flawed with its general incompatibility to Marxian accumulation theory. This paper revisits both Marx＇s and Kalecki＇s critique towards profit squeeze theory, pointing out that profit squeeze theory, being an unsound economic explanation of crisis, tends to dampen the political aspiration of workers. For Marx and Kalecki, the fight of working class for higher wages and full employment under proper economic condition is a prerequisite to reduce the social power of capitalists, which also constitutes a reality basis for a full transition to socialist democratic planning.
