Under the conditions of the new economy,the intensification of economic growth is becoming more and more evident.The machinery and equipment used in the production process are more complicated and ingenious.The proportion of intellectual capital and human capital such as patents for technology,intellectual property,goodwill and branding is getting higher and higher,Knowledge capital and human capital have gradually become the main forms of technological progress,making the progress of technology show the characteristics of skill-biased.Marx's theory of the organic composition of capital is based on the prevailing economic situation and the abstraction of capital forms other than material capital,with the conclusion that the organic composition of capital constitutes an ever-increasing trend.With the advancement of skill-biased technological progress,the knowledge capital joins in the scope of constant capital and the human capital joins in the scope of variable capital,and the expansion of constant capital and variable capital led to the possibility of declining trend in the organic composition of capital,so that changes in the composition of the capital appear to increase,unchanged and decline in three stages.Positioning in the new economic era,firstly,this paper summarizes the characteristics of technological progress in the evolution of the productive forces paradigm-skill-biased technological progress,and build a multi-sectoral economic model,design the biased index of technological progress,and theoretically analyze the formation mechanism of biased technological progress between skilled and unskilled labor factors.Secondly,combined with the characteristics of skill-biased technological progress in the new economic era,this paper extends the scope of constant capital and variable capital-Structural capital has the property of constant capital,human capital has the property of variable capital,and establishes the theoretical model to analyze the influence of skill-biased technological progress on the change of capital organic composition,and draws the characteristics of the changing trend of capital's organic composition-Under the influence of skill-oriented technological progress,when the fixed capital investment in technology application sector is greater than the structural capital investment in technology invention sector and the low-skilled labor input in technology application sector is greater than the high-skilled labor input in technology invention sector,The organic composition of total social capital showed an upward trend.When the organic composition of capital in technology application department is increased,at the same time,the organic composition of capital in technology invention department is reduced and the degree of influence is increased.The effect of the two is offset by each other,and the organic composition of the whole society tends to be stable.When the effect of skill-biased technology improvement on the organic composition of capital in technology invention sector is greater than that on the organic composition of capital in technology application sector,the organic composition of total social capital is on a downward trend.Thirdly,this paper calculates the technology-biased technological progress,the organic composition of traditional capital and the organic composition of expanded capital.The index of technological progress bias shows that the technological progress of our country in 1995-2016 is generally biased towards the skill-based labor factor.The organic composition of our country's traditional capital and the organic composition of expanded capital showed an overall upward trend in 1990-2014.The organic composition of expanded capital began to decline in 2014,and the organic composition of expanded capital relative to traditional organic capital was at a low level with a small change.Through the empirical analysis of the impact of skill-biased technological progress on the organic composition of extended capital,the skill-biased technological progress will hinder the upward trend of the organic composition of expanded capital,and the organic composition of expanded capital in our country indeed shows a downward trend.Finally,the paper analyzes the impact of popularization of robots on the organic composition of capital under the trend of intellectualization.With the widespread use of intelligent manufacturing and the widespread use of intelligent robots,Despite the increase in material capital invested,as a production tool,intelligent robots not only set higher requirements for workers who use him,but also release a large number of manual workers into mental work,thereby increasing investment in learning the knowledge and technical capabilities,human capital continues to increase,resulting in the scope of the constant capital and the variable capital make a difference,leading to the organic composition of capital Change trends change.
