The spatialization of capital is the process of capital expanding in space and shaping and reconstructing space according to capital logic.Marx’s spatialization of capital is Marx’s understanding of the spatial allocation of capital and the spatial evolution of production mode,as well as the dialectical relationship between capital,space and man constructed in this process.Marx placed himself in the special historical era of social system alternation,and his thought of capital space must have a distinct time mark.The rise of commercial capitalism and the reform of rural land system have laid the orderly premise for capital flowing in space.Industrialization makes capital gather continuously in space and provides necessary conditions for space to become commodity.Science and technology expand the field of capital space,making space production can be carried out in a larger scope;Subsequently,the capitalist economic crisis and the rise of the urban proletarian movement have become the consequences and manifestations of the spatialization of capital.Based on the understanding of space consciousness and space existence,absolute space and relative space,as well as the inheritance of capital logic and power logic,Marx’s capital spatialization thought has experienced the stages from preliminary exploration to basic formation,and then to continuous enrichment and improvement.Primitive accumulation to excessive accumulation of the law of capital expansion,capital in the process of the spatial transformation law of surplus value production,commodity and currency capital morphological evolution law in space respectively became the capital of space generation logic,drive logic and evolutionary logic,the spatial thought that Marx capital to expand the theory of logic.Among them,there are abundant capital spatialization principles.One is the space-time transformation principle,that is,reducing the circulation time of goods in the gradually expanding space,or creating more exchange space and then exchanging the expanding space for the ever-increasing time;Secondly,the spatial circulation principle of Commodity Exchange,that is,commodity circulation must be carried out in space,circulation cost is a special form of production cost,the change of circulation space will inevitably lead to the change of exchange form;The third is the dialectical interaction principle between the logic of capital and the logic of power,that is,in order to realize the production of surplus value,the logic of power will inevitably give birth to the corresponding logic of power,that is,the capitalist state power,and the logic of power plays an extremely important role in promoting the process of capital space.Marx held positive,critical and transcendental attitudes towards the spatialization of capital.First,in the aspect of positive dimension,he recognized the positive role of capital spatialization in promoting the development of productive forces,promoting the formation of world history and stimulating the progress of modern civilization.In the aspect of negative dimension,it criticizes the unjust phenomenon that the spatialization of capital leads to economic crisis,social and political confrontation,and ecological environment destruction.In the aspect of transcending dimensions,we should continue to develop social space productivity,carry out communist revolution,establish the union of free people,and realize spatial justice of capital space.As Marx’s deep understanding of space production practice,Marx’s thought of capital space is still shining with truth in contemporary times.At the theoretical level,it highlights the critical dimension of Marxist space,strengthens the theoretical basis of socialist space production theory,and enriches the research of Marxist political economy theory.At the practical level,it is helpful to solve many unbalanced development problems in different spatial scales,such as global space,municipal space and virtual space,and provide practical guidance.In conclusion,based on the rapid development of globalization,urbanization and networked era of time-space compression,carried out in the perspective of marxist capital of space theory,to analyze inadequate unbalanced development as the guidance,to dig the real challenges facing modern society governance factors for breach of the systematic academic research,has theoretical and practical value.
