1 ECON 4270 Distributive Justice Lecture 10: Libertarianism. Marxism Hilde Bojer 3 November 2009
2 Libertarianism Marxism Labour theory of value Exploitation of the workers Productive and unproductive labour
3 Libertarianism Libertarianism My own criticism: Libertarians tend to forget about women and children What is the market value of a child? (Friedman: children have rights) The state is not the only source of oppression and loss of freedom Benevolent government intervention can be a protection against oppression in the family
4 Marxism Marxism Karl Marx ( ) Philosopher, economist, economic historian, general social scientist Main works: Das Kapital (Capital) 3 volumes, 1867 and 1885, 1894 posthumously The Communist Manifesto (Co-author: Friedrich Engels) 1848 And many, many others. Manuscripts and rough drafts have been published, and they are not easy reading.
5 Marxism As you know, enormously influential Many political parties and movements and ruling parties
6 Marxism Marxism is considered an egalitarian ideology But Marx has no real theory of justice in distribution Famous slogan: From each according to ability, to each according to need. From the communist manifesto This ideal can, according to Marx, only be realised in a communist society.
7 Marxism Connected with his view of history: Capitalism would develop forces of production to their highest level. At the same time, internal contradictions: crises, falling rate of profit would lead to an end of capitalism through a proletarian revolution When the fetters of capitalism were thrown off there would be abundance enough for everyone
8 Labour theory of value Labour theory of value Marx s theory of exploitation is based on the labour theory of value, which he shared with Adam Smith and David Ricardo. Well explained verbally in Kymlicka. More formal analysis: Valid for any number o products and inputs Assume a corn economy: corn is produced using labour and corn (seed) To produce 1 kg corn we need a kg seed corn and l units of labour. Clearly, a < 1 (Why?)
9 Labour theory of value Labour theory of value Original formulatiorn: the value of the corn consists of direct labour plus indirect labour: the labour needed to produce the seed corn The seed corn is produced by labour and seed corn etc etc the beginning lost in time Marx s solution: the value of the seed corn equals the value of the corn produced
10 Labour theory of value Let the labour value of 1 kg corn = V. The (labour) value of 1 kg corn equals the number of work hours needed to produce it (l) plus the value of the seed corn ( av )
11 Labour theory of value Labour theory of value Formally: solution V = l + av V = l 1 a The labour value of corn depends on the productivity of labour and the productivity of seed corn
12 Exploitation of the workers Exploitation The economy produces X kg corn using ax kilo seed corn and lx = L hours of labour The net product is X ax = (1 a)x The value of the net product is: V (1 a)x = l (1 a)x = lx = L 1 a
13 Exploitation of the workers Exploitation The total value of the net product equals the number of hours worked The net product is divided between the workers and the capitalists The workets produce value L Of this, the capitalists keep back profits of value m (German), s (English) the workers receive L s < L They produce more value than they receive. This is the Marxian theory of exploitation.
14 Exploitation of the workers Exploitation What does the theory imply? prove? One possible conclusion: no exploitation in the just society the workers receive the whole product But Marx protests strongly against this conclusion in Critique of the Gotha programme Part of the product must go to the non-working the old, children etc and to investment So what is the just distribution???
15 Exploitation of the workers In Capital vol 3, Marx himself proved that prices in a competitive economy could not be proportional to labour values. By that time, however, the labour theory of value had been discarded by economists for other reasons, to be replaced by the neoclassical theory of value.
16 Productive and unproductive labour Productive labour The classical economist Smith (and Ricardo??) distinguished productive from unproductive labour. Smith: Only the production of physical objects produces value Services are unproductive Marx: Several different definitions
17 Productive and unproductive labour Productive labour One definition: the same as Smith Another definition: productive labour is labour producing value for capitalists (private sector) Only productive labour produces value hence: all value is produced in the private sector
18 Productive and unproductive labour Non-productive labour: public services housework child care
