Definition of Terms



Coefficient of responsibility – represents in the new system an element of the work competition expressed by independent voting of workers by means of a certain value in the range from 0.1 to 10. The higher value forms higher responsibility and provides a stronger work competition of workers for each work post. Higher worker's responsibility for his own and collective productivity will in the case of the rise of productivity bring higher income and a larger share in the distribution of past labor income-based points. In the case of the fall in production, the greater responsibility will result in more austere sanctions in the form of lower income and take-away of a quantity of past labor income-based points determined by the system.

Coefficient of envisaged productivity – presents the ratio of the envisaged and the existing productivity in any magnitude, such as cash gains on the market, quantity and quality of products or assessment of the success in business activity. The workers proposing coefficients of envisaged productivity higher than 1 (one) forecast the rise in productivity and realize in that connection a higher work competitiveness and greater rights to employment at a desired work post.

Coefficient of realized productivity – shows the ratio of the realized and envisaged productivity in any magnitude, such as the cash profit on the market, quantity and quality of products or assessment of the success in business activity. The workers accomplishing the coefficient of the realized productivity higher than 1 (one) did accomplish the rise in productivity and will accomplish a higher income, and vice versa.

Current work price – presents the value that is inversely proportionate with direct labor value. It is formed by direct voting of each worker in the range from 0.1 to 10. The work realizing a smaller direct value, or a more difficult, more dangerous, dirtier work will require a higher current work price, and will ensure a larger participation in the distribution of collective operating results, and vice versa. The objectivity of the current work price is ensured by the work competition.

Democratic planned economy – advocates the production planning based on directly stated consumption needs of all inhabitants.

Democratic anarchy – represents a new form of social relations where each inhabitant exercises equal legislative, judiciary and executive power in the society. Equality is manifested in the equal right of inhabitants to assess the doer of any activity in the society. Positive assessment needs to somewhat increase the income and quantity of past labor income-based points of the person assessed. Negative assessment needs to sanction the assessed worker by a little decrease in, and take-away of a small quantity of past labor income-based points. When each inhabitant has the right to make assessments freely, regardless of any written rules, such democracy represents anarchy. Democratic anarchy will force each inhabitant in the society to achieve as many conveniences as possible and the least possible number of inconveniences in the society in the broadest sense, which represents a base of a productive orientation of the society.

Direct democracy – is a form of democracy where each inhabitant directly and without any intermediary decides on any issue in the society that concerns his interests. This is feasible to achieve by filling out the computer cards. The statements of majority of inhabitants in the function of their voting power established by the holdings of past labor voting points need to either ratify or reject the prepared decisions and thus determine the rules of joint activity. The population can directly tailor the macroeconomic policy of a commune by distributing the collective money for the needs of economic development, individual and collective consumption, and all partial forms of distribution. The sum of statements of all inhabitants in the function of their voting power determined by past labor voting points held would form the framework of the business activity.

Direct value of labor – shows the conveniences and inconveniences that each work form brings directly while lasting. The new system proposes a scale for measuring direct value of the work in the range from 0.1 to 10. Lower direct value will be realized by a less convenient work. Direct value of work is inversely proportionate to current work value. Inconvenient work will require a higher current work price and, accordingly, a higher income, and vice versa. Objectivity of statements will be established in the way that the right to work will first be exercised by a worker who in addition to equal productivity envisages a higher direct value of work, or a worker requiring a lower income.

Free-of-charge consumption – envisages the consumption of the population not directly collected from consumers, but financed from the fund of collective commodity consumption. The population directly determines the quantity of money intended for the collective consumption and its purpose.

Humanism – is a new form of the socio-economic formation in which the man is a measure of value. Humanism replaces the political and economic elements of capitalism, and enables further development of the society. Humanism creates compromises that equally suit all members of the society and for this reason all society members accept it equally by their own wills.

Humanistic form of ownership of the means of production – is a form of a shareholding social ownership of the means of production on a certain territory. Each worker participates in collective ownership to the extent to which he has contributed together with his predecessors to the creation of such ownership with certain ethical-social corrections. According to its constitution, the system corresponds to the capitalistic form of shareholding, but incorporates in the ownership all of the inhabitants according to the jointly accepted humanistic criterion, because all inhabitants contributed by their past labor to its creation.

Indirect value of labor – is expressed by the value of the goods produced. A higher indirect value of labor is realized by producers of the commodities having a higher trade value in the society. The trade value of commodities is determined by the price of commodities on the free commodity market. One can say that in such circumstances the price of commodities determines the price of work, or the entire indirect value of labor.

Past labor income-based points – show the income power of each inhabitant in the associated labor of the commune. The quantity of past labor income-based points will be proportionate to the value of the work contribution of individuals and the inheritance of the work contributions of their predecessors in building the commune's collective ownership. More valuable work brings more conveniences to the society and will justly realize a larger quantity of past labor income-based points and a greater income in the commune's associated labor. Past labor income-based points do not include contributions in the building of private ownership, as it does not contribute to collective income of the commune's inhabitants. Such a system of earnings resembles more or less the capitalistic shareholding system, but deviates from the same in certain technical, social and ethical elements.

Past Labor Value – is analyzed only indirectly via the past labor results. Such value is established by past labor voting points or past labor income-based points.

Past labor voting points – present the voting power of each inhabitant in a commune. The voting power is proportionate to individual work contribution and the inherited work contributions of their predecessors in building all values in the society. Greater values in the society contribute to creation of greater conveniences, and thus deserve a stronger voting power. Such a system resembles more or less the capitalistic shareholding system of decision-making, but deviates from the same in certain technical, social and ethical elements. Each inhabitant will participate in the decision-making on all issues of common interest, proportionately to his voting power. A larger work contribution will realize a larger quantity of past labor voting points, and will have a stronger voting power, and vice versa.

Work competition – represents a new form of labor distribution in the system of humanistic form of ownership of the means of production. Each work post in associated labor will be occupied by the worker who by his own statement proposes the highest productivity, the highest responsibility and the lowest current work price expressed by coefficients. Such a form of labor distribution advocates the market principles of business activity, but enables transition to democratic planned economy.

Work price - represents a product of the past labor value expressed by a quantity of past labor income-based points, and the current work price of workers. A larger quantity of past labor income-based points and a higher current work price will realize a higher income, and vice versa.
