社会进程中的资本：一种核心驱动力量

Capital in the Social Process: A Core Driving Force

马克思对资本的系统研究和揭示,使我们对现代社会运行的核心驱动力量有了极为深入的认识。同时,我们也认识到,不关注资本以及资本的发展,就不能理解和解释自马克思以来的社会变革。正是资本和资本形态的不断发展或拓展,现代社会从工业化以及后工业化到当代的全球化才有了可能。这并不是说资本决定一切,其他的驱动因素不重要了,而是想着重指出,资本发展到现在,已经具有了复杂的形态。本文意在结合社会的演变,对这个资本形态或者说"资本家族"作一个尝试性的分析,以期对相关方面的认识探索出一条有建设性的路径。

Marx's systematic study and revelation of capital have given us a deep understanding of the core driving forces of the operation of modern society.At the same time,we also realize that we cannot understand or explain the social changes since Marx's time without paying attention to capital and its development.It is the continuous development or expansion of capital and itsforms that make it possible for modern society to go from industrialization and post-industrialization to contemporary globalization.This is not to say that capital decides everything,and other driving factors are not important,but to emphasize that the developmentof capital to date has had a complex form.This paper intends to make a tentative analysis of this capital form or"capital family"in the light of the evolution of society,in order to explore a constructive path for the understanding of relevant aspects.
