Abstract: Has digital labor changed the exploitation mechanism of capitalism?Western scholars hold different views in this regard.In response to the argument, first of all, it is necessary to carry on a political and economic analysis of the digital labor itself: to explainits material attribute;to demonstrate the transition logic of digital labor products from data goods to digital capital; and then draw the conclusion that Internet capitalists exploit digital labor in an allround way. Digital information technology is the object of human labor and its application in capitalism while digital laboris still productive labor in essence. Then we can realize the uncovering of digital capitalism: digital capitalhas never changed its nature of capital proliferation and it still cannot avoid the basic contradictions of capitalism.

Key words: digital labor, exploitation mechanism, digital capitalism, Marxist critique of political economy

摘要: 数字劳动是否改变了资本主义的剥削机制?西方学界对此观点各异。为回应这一争论,首先就要对数字劳动本身进行政治经济学分析:阐释数字劳动的物质属性;论证数字劳动产品向数字资本过渡的进阶逻辑;进而得出数字资本家全面剥削数字劳工的结论。数字信息技术是人的劳动的对象物在资本主义的应用,数字劳动在本质上仍属于生产性劳动。那么就实现了对数字资本主义的解蔽:数字资本从未改变资本增殖的本性,它依旧无法规避资本主义的基本矛盾。
