空间生产与全球化的资本逻辑

Production of Space and Capital Logic of Globalization

“空间生产”是法国马克思主义哲学家亨利·列斐伏尔提出的重要概念,他借助马克思主义和卡西尔的理论将社会关系、社会生产和历史性引入空间问题研究。“空间修复”是美国新马克思主义理论家戴维·哈维首创的一个概念,他用以解释资本主义以及资本在全世界地理上的扩张,其目的是为了解决因资本的过度积累而在资本主义制度内部造成的危机。列斐伏尔和哈维成了20世纪西方理论“空间转向”的重要代表人物。在哈维看来,全球化就是资本主义长期和无止境地寻求空间修复以解决其危机趋势的当代说辞。“空间修复”理论的政治经济学批判锋芒深刻地揭示了资本主义“全球化”背后的资本逻辑,对当代空间问题的研究产生了重大影响。

“Production of Space”is an important concept put forward by French Marxist philosopher Henry Lefebvre.With the help of Marx s and Ernst Cassirer s theories,he introduced social relations,social production and historical view to the study of spatial issues.“Spatial fix”is a concept created by David Harvey,a Neo-Marxist theorist of the United States.He uses it to explain the geographical expansions of capitalism and capital over the world.It was originally about a crisis of the excessive accumulation of capital in the capitalist system.Both Lefebvre and Harvey became the important representatives of the“spatial turn”in the western theory of the twentieth century.In Harvey s view,globalization is the contemporary rhetoric of capitalism s long and endless search for fixing its crisis.The political-economic criticism of the theory of“spatial fix”profoundly reveals the logic of the capital behind the capitalist“globalization”,which has a great influence on the contemporary study of spatial problems.
