The capacity to transform itself from the inside makes capitalism a somewhat peculiar beast - chameleon-like, it perpetually changes it colour; snake-like, it periodically sheds its skin.
The social relations of capitalism have penetrated slowly into all spheres of life to make wage labour the general condition of existence only in fairly recent times.
The onset of a crisis is usually triggered by a spectacular failure which shakes confidence in fictitious forms of capital.
Individual capitalists, in short, necessarily act in such a way as to de-stabilize capitalism.
If Occupy Wall Street can see their way to more collaboration with the union movement, then there will be a great deal of political action possible.
But planned obsolescence is possible only if the rate of technological change is contained.
Money could not be converted into capital if wage labour did not exist.
If all money capital invests in appropriation and none in actual production, than capitalism is not long for this world.
When money functions as measure of value it must truly represent the values it helps to circulate.
Rampant inflation is just as hard to live with as the devaluation of commodities.
Capital creates space-time .
There's a difference between an outburst of spontaneous anger, which doesn't have a political objective, and a more measured response that we saw in the Occupy Wall Street movement.
the net effect of increasing scale, centralization of capital, vertical integration and diversification within the corporate form of enterprise has been to replace the 'invisible hand' of the market by the 'visible hand' of the managers.
Massive concentration of financial power, accompanied by the machinations of finance capital , can as easily de-stabilize as stabilize capitalism.
