A Spatial Critique of the Logic of Globalized Expansion of the Digital Capital Value Movement——Analysis based on Marx's Theory of the World Market
Digital capital has a distinctive tendency to expand globally in the process of its value movement,and Marx's world market theory describes the process of spatial expansion of capital from one country's development to a global scale,which provides a theoretical basis for us to analyze the logic of the globalization and expansion of digital capital.Value creation in capi-tal production is the intrinsic motive for the formation of the world market;value realization in capital circulation promotes the continuous expansion of the world market;value distribution in the total process of capital production triggers and exacerbates the world market crisis.In the era of digital economy,the globalization of value creation,value realization and value distribution in the international production,global circulation and world production of digital capital has promoted the decentralized network of the global value chain division of labor,deepened the"center-periphery"hierarchical world interaction,and reshaped the in-ternational digital resource interest pattern under the accumulation of deprivation.This leads to a spatial critical interrogation on the technological entrenchment of digital power and the control of digital life under the logic of digital capital expansion,the ten-dency of transnational platform monopoly capital towards accelerationism and digital economic crisis,and the hegemony of digi-tal imperialism under the trend of counter-globalization and wealth centralization.
