    Food as Means of Production: Critique to the theory of social reproduction of Gerald A. Cohen

    No full text
    En este artículo vamos a evaluar el argumento de Gerald A. Cohen acerca de que los alimentos constituyen medios de producción y no, como sostiene Marx, medios de subsistencia. Primero demostramos que la definición como medios de subsistencia es correcta. A continuación, expondremos que el planteamiento de Cohen gira en torno a un malentendido fundamental. En tercer lugar, mostraremos que su concepción sobre los “medios de producción” es equivocada. Para pasar a esbozar las especificaciones de la esfera de la producción y de la esfera de la reproducción. Y terminar analizando las consecuencias políticas funestas que derivan de tomarse en serio sus argumentos. La perspectiva de Cohen y sus conclusiones son resultado del pensamiento “analítico”, que se contrapone a la racionalidad dialéctica.In this article, we will assess Gerald A. Cohen’s argument that foodstuffs are means of production rather than – as Marx holds – that foodstuffs are means of subsistence. We first show that Marx is correct, that foodstuffs are means of subsistence rather than means of production. Next, we will indicate how Cohen has misunderstood Marx in a very fundamental sense. Third we will show that Cohen›s arguments about “means” are wrong. Then we will sketch out the specifications of the sphere of production and the sphere of reproduction. Finally, we will indicate how Cohen’s arguments would have disastrous political consequences were they to be taken seriously. Above all, we will suggest that such an argument, and its political consequences, follow from the “analytical” mode that Cohen employs, insofar as it is opposed to dialectics
