The Enchantment,Disenchantment,and Transcendence of Digital Fetishism
Digitalization,as a new material,has been applied to production and operation.Under the digital cap-italist production mode,its purpose is to better meet the requirements of capital growth.This process is accompa-nied by the emergence of a new form of fetishism,namely digital fetishism.The production relations of digital capitalism are a social form that combines various elements of digital productivity,reflecting how the"charm"of digital fetishism manifests itself and its generation mechanism,and then,revealing how the production mode of digital capitalism expresses digital production relations in a"roundabout"way and meets the requirements of capital growth.Therefore,designing a solution that goes beyond capitalist digital fetishism lies in the three levels of digital technology,system,and capital,with respect and protection of the rights and interests of workers as the foothold,regulating the application of digital technology,regulating and limiting the scope of digital capital,and enabling people to fairly share and occupy digital resources.China's digital practice provides Chinese wisdom and solutions for the elimination of digital fetishism in capitalist society.
