A SOCIAL MARXISM AND THE ECONOMY
This summary briefly sets out the doctrines fundamental economic policies according to
Marx's own Marx's words . After all, no one has yet been able to
expose the theory of work better than Marx himself Some of Marx's arguments ,
especially in the first chapter, the most difficult of all, may seem to the uninitiated reader
digressive, thorough or “metaphysical” too much. In fact, this impression is a
consequence of the need or custom to approach the phenomena commonplace, first of
all, in a scientific way.
THE commodity has become such a common part, so habitual and so familiar of our
daily life that we don't even know it occurs to think why men give up objects important,
necessary for the sustenance of life, in exchange for small gold or silver discs that are
not used in nowhere on earth. The issue is not limited to the commodity. Each and every
category of the market economy seem to be accepted without analysis, as self-evident
themselves, and as if they were the natural bases of relations human. However, while the
realities of the process economic activity are human labor, raw materials, tools,
machines, division of labor, the need to distribute finished products among those
participating in the work process etc., categories such as “merchandise”, “Money”,
“wages”, “capital”, “profit”, “tax” etc. are, in most cases, men's heads, only semi-
mystical reflections of various aspects of an economic process that they do not
understand and cannot dominate. To decipher them it is a complete scientific analysis is
indispensable.
In the United States, where a man who is considered has a million dollars "worth" a
million dollars, the concepts related to the market were much more downgraded than
anywhere else. Until quite recently, Americans cared very little about nature economic
relations. In the land of the most powerful system economic theory, economic theory
continued to be excessively sterile. Only the increasingly deep crisis of American
economy, managed to make the opinion that country's public policy if it faced suddenly
with the fundamental problems of capitalist society. Of any Anyone who has not
overcome the habit of accept ideological considerations without rigorous examination
about economic progress made superficially, every he who has not thought, following in
the footsteps of Marx, the essential nature of the commodity as the basic cell of the
capitalist organism, will not be able to understand scientifically the most important
manifestations of our era.
Marx's Method
Having defined science as the knowledge of the resources objectives of nature, man
sought, obstinately and persistently exclude himself from science, reserving himself
whether special privileges in the form of an alleged interchange with supra-sensitive
forces (religion) or with precepts morals independent of time (idealism). Marx
definitively deprived man and for always of those odious privileges, considering it a link
natural in the evolutionary process of material nature, society as the organization for
production and distribution and capitalism as a stage in the development of human
society.
