Development,Capitalism Transformation and Marxism

摘要

Economic institutions,systems and economic organizations cannot be approached independently of their cultural,social and historical contexts.The historical development of capitalism in the West was inseparable fiom a culture of individualism whose success was propelled by the myth of control and accumulation with the entrepreneurs as the central actor.Without such cultural support,the transposed capitalist system in sub-Saharan Africa and the Arab world only leads to self-destruction of the regenerative capacities of the economy and local society.With the increased importance of human resources and organizational cultures,today's innovative-immaterial capitalism requires a paradigm shift in political economy,a re-composition where the cultures,the modes of communication and coordination,the importance of the belonging and the network as well as those of shared knowledge at the base are taken into consideration.
