In the capitalist market economy condition, the commodity use value is only the value of the goods the undertaker, when commodity and monetary exchange is completed, it seems that the whole process of economy ended. Goods from the market, the purchaser of goods to the commodity consumption is considered the consumer personal thing. Because consumption subject to the aim of capitalist production, and consumption for the reaction production, only negative effect weak. Consumption gradually ignored in capitalist social relations of production and productivity in the interaction process, people only see in the market of fierce competition, but can not see the consumption for the production, the exchange, even distribution and so on to have the positive influence. People often perceive only its material form operation, but can not see the collision, interpersonal relations of mutual adaptation, mutual growth phenomenon. In fact, although the production determines consumption, but is influenced by the
consumer to a certain extent, even under certain conditions, it also determines the production, decided the scale of production, structure and product structure of production decision. This point, in the
economic crisis of capitalism's particular salience. One hand, a large number of abandoned products society; on the other hand, people's consumption demand is not met. The basic contradiction of capitalism is completely unmasked, it not to meet people's consumption is bound to social production production purpose be discarded in the process of continuous development of productivity. Because the subject is not only the main body is the people's production, consumption, whether they in material and spiritual deserve to meet is the fundamental driving force for promoting the development of social production. No production and no consumption, no consumption nor production. So, the consumption theory must be given sufficient attention.
In 2008, the economic crisis in the America, this crisis has greatly weakened the world economy, especially in the developing countries. In the face of this enormous challenge, some countries to encourage people to buy more of the products, while others argue that it is harmful to the society, the two sides discussed as follows.
The former view is also known for stimulating domestic demand. It can make the steady economic growth, increase employment, improve the standard of living of the people. The method can also help countries to keep the trade surplus. Consumers in the purchase of cheap goods at the same time, it is in promoting employment, the increase in the wealth of nations, has brought opportunities for the
laid-off persons and, for a variety of activities beneficial to start
bringing hope. When the commodity shortages of thrift is a virtue, but when a large surplus, in commodity demand is insufficient, should not be advocated frugality.
Compared with the former view, which relates to the long-term
economic. Consumption to stimulate production, but its role is after all limited. The coordinated development of the concept of consumption that from the advanced productivity change development reality in the reform of the economic system and the national economy is
disadvantageous. First of all, the anticipated change consumption concept will create pressure for government policy. This will not only lead to persistent supply and structural shortage intensifies the
consumer goods market, but also enable people to create the illusion that seems to national prosperity and people prosperity is just around the corner, and as the level of consumption greatly improve the measure of recent reform to obtain the main mark of success. Resulting from government policies
Pressure, forcing the government to take short-term austerity, the contradiction between short term and long term targets resulting in reform, so that the long-term future of the freedom of decision down to the narrow state delay reform fighters, delay and concept of
consumption of government policy in addition to lead more fleeting time difference caused by the disconnection policy and concept. Power will make the reform itself lacks strength and promote the. Second, ahead of consumer attitudes change will cause economic cycle prime chaos, especially the accumulation and consumption will break after the adjustment has just been built is still very fragile
balance. Stimulating domestic demand is likely to increase the money supply, and inflation, easy to cause the subprime crisis. At the same time, driven by economic interests, the company could produce more products than the actual needs of people, waste the limited resources and capital.
As far as I am concerned, the latter view is more rational. In the past few years, China has always adhered to the former view, in order to develop the economy, but the effect is not so obvious. Indeed, China's economic growth, but he can't buy many goods such as expected, because the appreciation of the renminbi. At the same time, the
Chinese enterprises are encouraged to produce too many items, the great waste of China's limited resources, and the destruction of their
environment. In addition, the method is related to the national bad upgrade of industrial structure. A country, especially the developing countries need to learn advanced experience through exports etc.. If we only use domestic products, how can we learn from others? But I personally think that alone is not enough, should also be from the following several aspects further launch. 1 to update the concept of consumption. And so we should uphold the fine traditions of hard work, but also set a positive idea of consumption. According to the economic development, combined with national conditions, bold and promoting consumption, activation of consumption to promote the further development of production and better meet the needs of the people. 2 to stabilize the growth of personal income. Workers' economic income is the main source of income of individual
consumption. The more income, the purchasing power of the stronger. This realistic purchasing ability and will aim at the consumer market, and when it is put into the market, the market value of goods and services can be realized, consumers can get better meet consumer demand. Visible, the level of purchasing power determines the scale and mode of consumption,
