Intensifying Exploration of Approaches to Research in Theory on Value of Labor BAI Bao-li 2002, (2):  21-26.  DOI: Abstract ( )   PDF (888KB) ( )   This article intends to discuss means of intensifying the theory on value of labor.

From the perspective of denotation of the value theory, on the other hand, the author advocates a theoretical transition from the specific to the general. Ideas of all modern schools of value theories are integrated with an intention of establishing a substance oriented six level system of theories on value. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Theory on Service Products and Its Practical Implications LI Jiang-fan 2002, (2):  27-32.  DOI: Abstract ( )   PDF (782KB) ( )   Under circumstances of the rise of the third industry, traditional theories on value of labor are faced with the severe challenge of a narrowing scope of application. In response to this challenge, the author explores possible ways to extend the application area to the third industry. Non-material products, non material use value, and theories on value of service are discussed. Thus, the category of social products is expanded to include service products, the category of use value is enlarged to embrace non materialized use value, and the category of value of labor is extended so that the third industry can also be addressed.
