Marx's dialectical analysis of the historical operation of capital
Capital is not an eternal form consistent with the development of productive forces,but an economic form in which human beings pursue wealth and point to value-added. On the one hand,it enhances the productive forces in the endless pursuit of value,and on the other hand,it constructs the production relations that restrict the progress of productive forces. As a living contradiction,it is logically bred in the operation of the unity of opposites in the commodity economy. In the extension of contradiction,it shows typical characteristics such as changing its role from circulation intermediary to dominate production and circulation,from leading economic deduction to controlling politics and culture,from attaching to ancient social time and space to dominating the construction of modern society,and from ancient society to the emergence of Communist society. The demise of capital is a process of both passive sublation and positive sublation. Worldwide joint action is a necessary condition for the complete sublation of capital.
