What Is an Allocation Base?
distribution
(Economic term)
- Distribution refers to the process of allocation of social economic resources. It mainly refers to the distribution of labor, capital or capital, means of production and other resources. It is based on the material conditions that social production is carried out in proportion to the premise of division of labor. Regardless of the nature of the socio-economic system, as long as the production of the society is based on the division of labor, economic resources must be allocated in proportion. Only in this way can various types of production be carried out and developed in proportion. Generally speaking, distribution refers to the distribution of newly created labor products in society. It is manifested as the division and possession of social products among society or countries, social groups and members of society, which is one aspect of people's social production relations. This distribution is both the distribution of value and the means of production and consumption; it is carried out both within the material production sector and within the whole society; it is necessary to meet the needs of social reproduction and the lives of members of society need. [1]
- Generally refers to the process and form of distribution of social products to society (or state), social groups, and members of society, including
- Distribution of total social products
- Total social product is produced by society in a certain period (usually one year)
- For social production to take place, there must be a distribution of the means of production and members of the society among the various types of production in the society. This distribution is a condition for the beginning of the production process. It exists before production and is included as a prerequisite for production. In production. Without the distribution of production conditions, there is no production, and there is no mention of product distribution. As Marx said, "Before distribution is the distribution of products, it is (1) the distribution of production tools, (2) the distribution of members of society between various types of production (individuals are subject to a certain production relationship)-it is the above The further stipulation of the same relationship. This distribution is included in the production process itself and determines the structure of production, and the distribution of products is obviously only the result of this distribution "(Selected Works of Marx and Engels, Vol. 2, p. 99).
- The distribution of means of production determines the nature of the distribution of social members among various types of production in the society, and determines the position of social members in the production process. In a society based on the private ownership of the means of production, members of the society that own the means of production do not directly participate in labor, but are in a dominant position in the production process. Those members of the society that do not own or occupy only a small amount of means of production are direct producers , But in a dominant position in the production process. Both are private ownership of the means of production, and there are different forms of slavery, feudalism, and capitalism. They determine the different relationships between people in the production process and the different distribution relationships of products.
- Relationship with production
- The relationship between distribution and production Distribution is the intermediate link connecting production and consumption. The relationship between distribution and production is that production determines distribution, that is, determines the objects and methods of distribution. Without the production of a product, there are no objects (products) available for distribution; the number of products available for distribution also depends on the number of such products produced. The social form in which social members participate in the distribution of social products depends on the social form in which they participate in production. Marx said: "The structure of distribution is completely determined by the structure of production. Distribution itself is the product of production, not only in terms of objects, but also in terms of form. In terms of objects, what can be allocated is only the results of production, which is in terms of form. "A certain form of participation in production determines the specific form of distribution and the form of participation in distribution" (ibid., Vol. 2, p. 98).
- On the other hand, distribution also has an adverse effect on production. Adapting to a specific form of production can promote the development of production. Conversely, distribution that does not adapt to the form of production will hinder the development of production to a greater or lesser extent .
- Distribution relationship
- In the class confrontation society based on private ownership, the distribution relationship also has the nature of confrontation. The exploiting class relies on private possession of the means of production, uses it as a means of exploiting workers, and owns most of the products created by workers without compensation. They gain nothing for nothing, but the majority of workers receive more labor and less, and the distribution of such products deepens the contradictions in the reproduction process. In a socialist society, the working people become the masters of the production process. They work for the benefit of society and themselves. There is no class relationship in the distribution relationship. This distribution relationship makes the workers care about material benefits. The development of social production plays a significant role in promoting the development of social production. Of course, this does not mean that there is no contradiction between distribution and production in a socialist society. In socialist society, egalitarian interference sometimes occurs in the distribution of products. Equalitarian distribution actually recognizes that some people can occupy the labor of another without compensation, which is contrary to the principle of doing everything in their power and distributing according to work. In addition, the difference in the distribution of personal consumer goods, if separated from The difference in the labor provided to society does not conform to the principle of distribution according to work. All this will dampen the enthusiasm of the workers and is not conducive to the development of production. However, under the socialist system, contradictions in distribution relations are non-confrontational. It can be solved through specific measures to implement the principle of distribution according to work.

- The distribution of products is determined by the distribution of the means of production. The distribution of the means of production not only restricts the distribution of products, but is also a prerequisite for social production.
