영문 초록

This paper, from discontent about established terms of domestic labour and its related labours, attempts to generalized them clearly. Production in orthodox marxism is biased to material production. In Marx's writing, domestic labour is equalized with pure consumption. And he has not consistincy where labour power of domestic labours is objectified. Namely, he sees that it is objectified to labour power of consumer in some contexts and to means of existence in other contexts. Equally, he considers education and medical treatment as labour production in some contexts and as non-material production in other contexts. Domestic labour debate of Western marxist feminists was introduced to Korea 1980s and it influnced to equalize a wife's legal prestige as co-provider with husband's in revision of family law. But it is revealed that in various respects, terms of domestic labour and its related labours are not suitable as concept. First, such terms as domestic labour , household production and subsistence production are merely description. Reproduction, the word itself has a implication not to produce a new need. So it is considered less causally influencial and less basic than production of means of existence. With the critical mind as above mentioned, this paper studies to generalize domestic labour and its related socialized labours as labour power and/or human production. The work is done on a level which its historical forms are abstracted. As a result of abstraction, production is differed into production of means of existence, labour power and/or human production and non-material production in a view point of content of labour. Labour power (and/or human) production consists of five concret useful labours; 1) remaking labour such as washing dishes, cleaning, sweeping 2) caring labour 3) medical treatment and nursing 4) education 5) procreation According to political economy, categories of production are divied into capitalistic production, non-productive production (=service production), petit-commodity production. Whether capitalistically socialized labour power production is productive or non-productive production, is controversial in political economy itself. Neo-Ricardians consider both of means of existence and service productions as productive in so far as it is commercialized capitalistically. But this view has a problem that labour power production as service production is considered as non-material production. The problem how to divide categories of labour forms and how to ascript various forms labour power production to those, remains unresolved in this paper.
