Jürgen Kocka 实验主义治理 2019/11/18 https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s?__biz=MjM5MTE0MjQ1Nw==&mid=2650323123&idx=1&sn=7b106db355f297398882c5e26a8600bc&chksm=beb61fe589c196f344b4d1a96327d06270ede9182a221196c8a7a794434abe95eed2e5d8eb45&mpshare=1&scene=1&srcid=&sharer_sharetime=1575619876169&sharer_shareid=f14234539e09a08e77a9206f4cc494e3&exportkey=AqKmLXeTw5nyLjwszew%2BQHI%3D&pass_ticket=cT1PscxMid%2BqKIEWjGMWPPslguRuVnQopE8y6ozNFzwW0IVjtST4sRxz5VeM7ZZg#rd 他此次报告是关于”资本主义“这个大家极为熟悉的”概念“。但正如黑格尔所说,”熟知非真知“。科卡注意到,形容词”capitalist”要比名词 “capitalism”被使用早的多,也广泛的多。他希望发展一个关于”资本主义“的定义,使得”资本主义“窄于”市场经济“ 而又宽于基于大规模工资劳动的”工业资本主义“。他的”资本主义“定义包含三个要素:非中心化,商品化和积累( decentralization, commodification and accumulation)。
