2 September 2008: Added to the Samezō Kuruma Archive :
Are Prices and Wages in a Vicious Circle? (1946) – This is an article first published in the journal Kaizō roughly one year after Japan's defeat in World War Two, when the country was in the midst of rampant inflation. It was also a period of rising militancy among the working class, with a wave of (successful) strikes to secure wage increases. Not surprisingly, the capitalist class sought to pin the blame for inflation on the increase in wages, advancing the argument that there was a "vicious circle" wherein rising wages triggered higher prices that in turn led to higher wages, and so on. In this article, Kuruma sets out to demolish that argument. He illustrates the effect that a rise in wages actually has on the production prices of commodiites – based on the labor theory of value of Marx (and Ricardo). With inflation again on the rise today, and every liklihood that captialists will again seek to pin the blame on workers, this is an article that remains very relevant.
