(1) In the total process of social production, there is a dialectical relationship between production, distribution, exchange and consumption. Direct production process is the starting point of reproduction process and plays a decisive role.
(2) Production plays a decisive role in distribution, exchange and consumption: first, production determines the objects of distribution, exchange and consumption; Second, production determines the level and structure of distribution, exchange and consumption; Third, production determines the specific forms of distribution, exchange and consumption; Fourthly, the sociality of production determines the sociality of distribution, exchange and consumption.
(3) The reaction of distribution, exchange and consumption to production is reflected in the following aspects: first, the distribution mode suitable for the development of productive forces can mobilize the enthusiasm of producers and promote the development of production, and vice versa; Second, the development of exchange can promote the development of production, and vice versa; Third, consumption can finally realize the products produced, and consumption creates power for the development of production, and vice versa.
The production of social reproduction materials is the basis of the existence and development of human society, and its four links and their relations are as follows:
(1) Social reproduction includes four interrelated links: production, distribution, exchange and consumption.
(2) The four links of social reproduction are mutual influence and interaction.
First of all, production determines consumption. Production determines consumption; Consumption has a negative effect on production, which can stimulate economic growth and promote production development.
Secondly, production determines distribution. Production is the premise and foundation of distribution; Distribution affects production. If the distribution problem is not solved well, it will affect the consumption level of workers and then affect their enthusiasm for production.
Third, distribution affects consumption. From the perspective of national income, whether the national income distribution is reasonable will affect the overall consumption level of society and the improvement of people's living standards; From the perspective of personal income, whether the distribution of personal consumer goods is reasonable will directly affect family income and then affect residents' consumption activities.
Finally, exchange is a bridge between production and consumption. Only through exchange can producers obtain the means of production needed for production, sell their own products and realize the value of products, otherwise production cannot be carried out; Only through exchange can consumers get the necessities they need, and if the exchange is not smooth, they cannot meet the needs of consumers to the maximum extent.
