时间银行 Time-based currency

(重定向自Time banking)

时间银行的倡导者是美国人埃德加·卡恩。1980年,卡恩46岁,却经历了一次大面积心肌梗塞,这次经历让对生活有了重新的理解,他的生活方向也由此改变。

卡恩的父亲是一名当律师法学教授,早年时他就有消除不公正的思想。卡恩的妻子是非洲裔美国人,他们跨越种族和肤色的婚姻在当时是被人威胁的。

卡恩是伦敦经济学院的资深研究员,他创立了时间银行这种模式,他希望这种模式能为社会变革带来一些经济和精神效益。根据这种模式,劳动不分贵贱,每个人的工作时间都是平等的。这非常类似于马克思提出的“价值实际上无形的时间”。在他看来,不管是盖房子,还是照顾小孩,这些工作都是平等的。他还设计了时间银行系统,通过电脑可以把每个工作者的工作时间或接受服务的时间都按小时记录下来。目前,北美、欧洲和亚洲23个国家的300多个社区的企业都采用了这个系统。每个参加者工作的时间或接受服务的时间都按小时由电脑记录下来。卡恩说,北美、欧洲和亚洲23个国家的300多个社区的企业都采用了这个系统。

Time-based currency 时间银行

(重定向自Time banking)
Truck system of payment by order of Robert Owen and Benj Woolfield, National Equitable Labour Exchange, July 22nd 1833.

In economics, a time-based currency is an alternative currency or exchange system where the unit of account/value is the person-hour or some other time unit. Some time-based currencies value everyone’s contributions equally: one hour equals one service credit. In these systems, one person volunteers to work for an hour for another person; thus, they are credited with one hour, which they can redeem for an hour of service from another volunteer. Others use time units that might be fractions of an hour (e.g. minutes, ten minutes – 6 units/hour, or 15 minutes – 4 units/hour). While most time-based exchange systems are service exchanges in that most exchange involves the provision of services that can be measured in a time unit, it is also possible to exchange goods by 'pricing' them in terms of the average national hourly wage rate (e.g. if the average hourly rate is $20/hour, then a commodity valued at $20 in the national currency would be equivalent to 1 hour).
