Bureaucratic capital: relying on state power, dependent on imperialism. As soon as it appeared, it was a monopoly on the national economy. So it's the worst form of capitalism. It is a huge obstacle to socio-economic development.

4. Different development paths.

It will be to the national bourgeoisie.

Bureaucratic capital: In addition to the general characteristics of monopoly capitalism, bureaucratic capital has the characteristics of comprador feudalism. Its existence and development hindered the development of the social productive forces and further deepened the degree of colonization of China, and thus it was a reactionary production relationship and the object of revolution of the Chinese people during the period of the democratic revolution.

1. Bureaucratic capital.

Refers to the colloquial name of comprador feudal state monopoly capital in China. After 1927, the four major families of Chiang Kai-shek, Song Ziwen, Kong Xiangxi, and Chen Lifu seized state power through military action, used political power to control state finance, used financial means to control and establish financial monopoly, and used financial superiority to establish commercial monopoly and annex private capitalist industry.

2. Comprador capital.

The comprador is often referred to as a special class derived from the late Qing Dynasty. The comprador himself is an official of the imperial court, and at the same time runs his own industry (mostly connected with foreigners), using his position to make profits. The capital of the comprador capitalist is the capital of the comprador capital.

Comprador capital is comprador, feudal, and monopolistic.

Bureaucratic capital refers to the economy established and developed by the rulers with the power of state power. It is a product of political undemocracy and economic underdevelopment.

Characteristics of bureaucratic capital: Bureaucratic capital is a form of primitive accumulation of capital that uses political privileges to redistribute property, mainly through plundering in the field of commodity circulation and finance. Bureaucratic capital emerges from three distinct but interrelated forms of capital, and survives, operates and develops in these three forms of capital.

The three different forms of capital are: privately owned capital by bureaucrats; state capital managed by bureaucracy; Other private capital controlled by bureaucracy (see Wang Yanan, "An Analysis of the Theory of Chinese Bureaucratic Capital", Principles of China's Economy, pp. 381-407, Guangdong Economic Publishing House, 1998).

The so-called "predatory redistribution" characteristic of bureaucratic capital refers to the process by which the state capital and other private capital that have been generated and accumulated are continuously re-transformed into privately owned capital of the bureaucracy through various means of stealing the state treasury and trading power for money.

Compradors: (1) Those who were in charge of procurement and chores in the old government or wealthy households; (2) Intermediaries and brokers in commerce, banking, insurance, industry and mining, transportation, etc., on behalf of foreign capitalists in the domestic market.

The comprador we usually refer to is a special class derived from the late Qing Dynasty. The comprador himself was an official of the imperial court, and at the same time ran his own industry (more than foreigners), using his position to make a profit. Compradors have been very popular since the Westernization Movement, and the local officials who engaged in the Westernization Movement at that time were basically compradors.

The capital of the comprador capitalist is the capital of the comprador capital. On the one hand, these people help foreigners to do business and rely on foreigners to survive, and on the other hand, they test their own economic strength to do business. It's comprador capital.

Comprador capital is comprador, feudal, and monopolistic.

The so-called bureaucratic capitalism refers to the combination of the capitalist mode of production and political power to produce a monopoly state monopoly capitalism.

In the Westernization Movement, although the capitalist mode of production was used, the foundation of its economic foundation was still the feudal "natural economy", and the capitalist mode of disturbing and imaginary production was only used as a supplement to the economic base, and did not shake the economic foundation of the feudal system, so it did not constitute "bureaucratic capitalism" in the real sense.

The bureaucratic comprador bourgeoisie, marked by the "four families," has used the political power of the state to closely integrate with the capitalist mode of production, resulting in a huge market monopoly and the basic characteristics of state monopoly and speculation capitalism.

Therefore, the "joint operation of government and business" during the Westernization Movement was not "bureaucratic capitalism", and the "four families" of the Nanjing Kuomintang were the real "bureaucratic comprador capitalism".

Many people have never heard of the term bureaucratic capital, and they don't know what it means.

1. Capital owned by the bureaucratic bourgeoisie. The Common Program of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference: "The People's Republic of China must abolish all the privileges of the imperialist countries in China and confiscate bureaucratic capital and return it to the people's state." ”

2. Bureaucratic explanations. Finger**; On another occasion, a local bureaucrat of the Kuomintang forbade male and female classmates to swim with men and women, causing a storm in the city.

3. Detailed explanation of capital. The cost of running an industrial and commercial business. Song Hexue's "Chunzhu Chronicles: Su Liu Mutual Conversation": "My son, one of whom is a little older, is a little longer because he makes his palm crack and call for a small solution. is not over the age of the year, occasionally mispredestined and stolen goods, and the capital is exhausted. ”

That's it for what bureaucratic capital means.

Bureaucratic capital: Bureaucratic capitalism is a combination of state power and private ownership of property, based on rent-seeking by state power and a system of private ownership of property, with the aim of pursuing wealth beyond its own (private ownership of property) creative capacity.

Comprador capital: The comprador class itself is a product of foreign capitalist aggression against China, and a tool of foreign capitalist aggression against China. The main activity of the comprador class is neither to invest in production nor to run commerce, but to act as a mediator in the field of circulation.

Its main income is from the economic aggression of foreign capital against China. It is actually a parasitic class. In short, the emergence, formation, and development of the comprador class in China are inseparable from foreign capitalism in China.

It is the social pillar and social foundation of foreign capitalist aggression against China. It naturally has a close connection with feudalism and is the right-hand man of the feudal landlord class. It is a reactionary class that obstructs and sabotages the development of China's social productive forces.
