Abstract
"Service labor/value of labor power-creating theory" insists that human abilities are produced in the sector of "personal service" such as education, healthcare, welfare, and entertainment, and that those are not material goods but commodity products that ought to be produced in a production sector applicable to labor value theory. They have always criticized our viewpoint of comprehending human abilities as a concept of product and of regarding a service sector as a process of producing. In fact, they have criticized that it needs to present an original Reproduction Diagram as long as "service labor/value of labor power-creating theory" manifest a commodity production theory. The purpose of this paper is to make an original Reproduction Diagram while illustrating my basic point of view on"Service labor/value of labor power-creating theory." We concluded the following; Labor power possessed by Wageworkers (including family members) and capitalists constantly repeats a series of exhaustion and the recovery as one part fades out and the other part reforms itself. The numerical values for service sector in the diagram represents an amount of commodity values and the whole body of service products produced per year by social labors such as education, healthcare, welfare, and entertainment in order to maintain and develop value in use of labor power. An introduction of service sector into Reproduction Diagram demonstrates that the service sector (education, healthcare, welfare, and entertainment) stays essential as a social labor sector or a social production sector to carry on social reproduction in a given production level, while for working laborer (commodity of labor power) and un working laborer (fulltime housewives, children, seniors, and capitalists) sustaining and developing the quality level of labor power. For an extension of service sector, it is inevitable that wageworkers and capitalists expend increasingly their income on services. Since real wage level doesn't change hugely in the short term, the rise of productivity in the entire goods production, which may cause a value decline on consumer goods, is the premise for an extension of service sector. Introducing service sector into Reproduction Diagram as a value creation sector is barely consistent with the comprehension which reproduction proceeds in a balanced proportion directed by "regulation rolls of goods production sector." It is because an extension of service sector depends on a value decline in consumer goods, and furthermore the extensive reproduction indispensably requires redundant production goods from the first sector. Nevertheless, "regulation rolls of goods production sector" can protest in only this context so that in the aspect of productivity we will never deny the interregulative relation between goods and service.
