The interconstructive interface of time and space:The logic structure and morphological change of digital labor
The spatial structure is the fundamental structure of human society.With the development of digital technology,time acquires a digital form.The digitalization of social time structure enhances the time power of digital capitalists,cau-sing the acceleration of social time,deepening the accelerated production logic of society,constructing the fast-paced dig-ital labor time,and driving the accelerated accumulation of digital capital.The digitalization of social time structure shapes the time discipline of digital labor,not only deepening the comprehensive time discipline of digital capitalists over digital labor time,but also strengthening their implicit power ordering over"non-labor time".The digitalization of social time structure builds a state of"time-space compression",creating consistency between digital time and space,achieving"using time to eliminate space",thereby deepening the disciplinary and exploitative nature of digital capital over digital labor.At the same time,the development of digital technology changes traditional spatial structures,causing social spatial structure to acquire a digital form.The digitalization of social spatial structure leads to the extreme compression of digital space,causing spatial distance no longer to be a limit on digital labor,which drives the efficient development of digital labor but also strengthens the regulatory power of digital capital.The digitalization of social spatial structure causes the spatialization of digital capital,continuously deepening the spatial radiation of digital capital and expanding the scope of its influence,thus deeply regulating the development trajectory of digital labor.The digitalization of social spatial struc-ture exacerbates the global digital divide,strengthens the spatial hegemony of digital empires,creates the alienated pos-ture of digital labor,and further solidifies the"center-periphery"spatial production structure,revealing the unjust state of digital space.
