the core thought of my book:
An Inquiry Into Marx’s Labor Theory of Value
My work , An Inquiry Into Marx’s Labor Theory of Value ,has been published by Minzu university of China Publishing House,but the publishing house does not agree to issue the work publicly,so that it can not be found at the libraryies of university and society within China .I think it is necessary to state the spring of my book on website.
I make a statement in the book : An Inquiry Into Marx’s Labor Theory of Value ,the major idea of Marx’s Capital,make a statement about production and distribution of surplus value in capitalistic commodity economy.If he want to demonstrate production and distribution of surplus value in capitalistic commodity economy,Marx must establish his theory of value correctly about capitalistic commodity economy.That is to say,the subject of Capital-----theory of surplus value,must be based on the true value theory of capitalistic commodity economy . In the first charpter
of the valume 1 in Marx’s Capital,the researched subject should be the capitalistic nature of the commodity value of decision theory ,Namely ,in capitalistic nature of the commodity economy( the market economy existing capital ownership,labor ownership ,land ownership, regulated and controlled by gorverment),what and how many factors determine exchange ratio between goods. However,in the first charpter
of the valume 1 in Marx’s Capital,the actual research about value theory in commodity economy that only exist the labor ownership.But after the second charpter in the valume 1 of Marx’s Capital, Marx use his value theory derived from the commodity economy that only exists the labor ownership into the capitalistic commodity economy without any argumentation, thereby he infer a serious of erroneous conclusion. Speaking impartially,Marx do not comprehend that the determinants of value is not the same in two commodity economies with different kinds of ownerships .In the language of economics ,the logical premise in Marx’s Capital is the commodity economy in the nature of capitalism,but when Marx carried on for abstract analysis he made a fatal flaw unconsciously and lost the premise of the capitalistic commodity economy----capital ownership( and land ownership),profit (and land rent ) is economic manifestations in commodity value.then on the basic of false abstract results ,Marx built the whole economic theory --Capital.In Capital,Marx made a series of mistakes
(such as theory of surplus value, the Collapse theory of capitalism )
Here is preface of my book
Preface
There are three parts constitute my book.The first part is made up of my thesis that has been finished long time ago.The thesis is so long that it would be a book in itself.However,the thesis is too abstract and too professional,Many domestic jourals of economics and academic are reluctant to accept and publish it , this has a great relationship with many editorial staffs do not understand the significance of my thesis.despite ,I think it is normal,do no worry so much about this,because the division of academic research has socialized,any one should not rebuff the Mathematics Achievement of Chen-jingrun even he do not know the theorem "1+1=2" .I ever expect I could have more professional friends than Chenjingrun,at least ,the professors and research fellows would understand my book who study and inquiry Capital. The second part is made up of two essays and twe letters between Professor Chen-daisun and me.This part is the presentation and interpretation for the first part.The second part is clear and easy to understand than the first part .If readers can not understand this part,I can
do nothing but ask them to pass over the first and seond part then begin to read from the third part.The third part is made up of summary of discussions on web.When the first part of my book is opened on the internet ,many netizens put forward their valuable advices which make me benefit from greatly .The readers who are interest in my book, can compare the thesis Truth and Fallacy in Marx's labor theory of Value that had been come out on the Web *****.COM.CN at 14 Feb 2005 with the alteration in the first part of my book , I am grateful for all of you, the gratitude is from the depth of my heart .
The problems discussed in my book are very important for us to understand the commodity economy that we have always lived in. There are thousands years of history for the commodity economy ,but nowadays we still do not put our finger on how to run of the commodity economy.In spite of ,There are many economists conducted the study on this issue and get a great deal of academic achievements before my book published ,I belive these can not affect the unique academic value and the statue of my book in the history of economics.If the academic contributions of The General Theory of Employment,Interest and Money of Keynes is on macroeconomics , well then the focus of my book is on the micoeconomics,and my book provides a truly scientific basis for the The General Theory of Keynes,and provide a key for readers to comprehend The General Theory correctly .
If my book can make some contributions for the development of
economics,at first I should appreciate Marx and his immortal great book Capital which lead me into the capitalistic commodity economy. In my college days ,the economy in China is planned economy ,I can only get the konwledge about capitalistic commodity economy on the book of Marx .Afterward ,reform and opening-up
begin in China, the planned economy transit gradually to the commodity economy.I have derived a lot of professional knwoledge from the special transitting process of chinese economy ,these experience lay the root for my economic thought.
