这篇文章试图通过批评来重振一个研究项目。它批判的对象是分析马克思主义强有力的研究议程。我将通过批评该研究计划中最具影响力的两位成员——g·a·科恩(G. A. Cohen)和约翰·罗默(John Roemer)——的观点来尝试这种复兴。我认为,在资产分配不公的背景下,他们错误地将剥削与交换等同起来。相反,剥削应该被视为一种统治形式,即为自我充实的统治。我认为,后一种概念抓住了分析马克思主义观点的直觉盈余,更符合马克思自己对资本主义的批判,对社会主义目标提供了更丰富、更合理的理解,更容易融入严谨的马克思主义社会科学,并使马克思主义更接近激进民主。如果我是对的,那么剥削的概念将获得新生,马克思主义的军械库将因重新关注脆弱性和支配性而得到充实。
This essay attempts to revive a research programme by criticizing it. Its object of criticism is the powerful research agenda of analytical Marxism. I shall attempt this revival by criticizing the views of two of the most influential members of that research programme, G. A. Cohen and John Roemer. I will argue that they are mistaken in their identification of exploitation with exchange against the background of injustice in the distribution of assets. Exploitation should be conceived, instead, as a form of domination, that is, domination for self-enrichment. The latter conception, I shall argue, captures intuitions surplus to the analytical Marxist view, accords better with Marx’s own critique of capitalism, provides a richer, and more plausible, understanding of socialist goals, is more amenable to integration into a rigorous Marxist social science, and brings Marxism closer to radical democracy. If I am right, then the idea of exploitation will have received a new lease of life, and the Marxist armoury will have been enriched by renewed focus on vulnerability and domination.
