NECESSITY CRITIC

The critique of necessity is a field of the critique of political economy, which aims at an extension of the theoretical conditions in which human-social necessity has its meaning within the capitalist system from the structural analysis of the theory of value. Necessity, as a historical process of satisfaction of needs, in capitalism is reversed in a double character, namely. In the sense in which society has neither control nor autonomy over the possibilities and conditions to satisfy social needs, provoked this situation by the social form of value; also by the ideological inversion in which it places the social subject in the illusion that he is the master of the social relation of the commodity form. As capitalism is transformed into a social system of production of surplus value, absorbing the social totality, in a tautology, Capital absolutizes the need for valorization of value. The commodity producing society transforms the mode of production into a process of total social dependence. The commodity form is the creation of a material vacuum of access to the material conditions of satisfaction of needs.
