Digital Labor Discernment:Based on the Perspective of Marx’s Three Elements of Labor Process Ideas
The research on the boundary of digital labor is one of the important contents of political e-conomy research in the digital era,and at present,the academic circle mainly focuses on its materiality and immateriality,production and non-production and other issues to carry out relevant elaboration.However,in the process of research,there still exists the problem of"generalization"of digital labor,which needs to return to the scientific vision of Marx’s labor theory of value to further analyze and re-search on the boundary of digital labor.Marx’s labor theory of value points out that workers,labor ob-jects and labor materials are the three basic elements of the labor process,and digital labor with many new features is still in line with this scientific theory.Therefore,it is necessary to base on the scientific direction of historical materialism and conduct an in-depth analysis of the expansion of the scope of la-borers,the immaterial characteristics of labor objects and the digital application of labor materials in the process of digital labor from the perspective of Marx’s theory of the three elements of the labor process,so as to provide certain reference significance for clarifying the scope of digital labor.
