Dear Kevin, very good text, I'm asking Franco to serialize this in 3 episodes, prepared on the wiki holding page at http://p2pfoundation.net/Feudal_Origins_of_Capitalism where can I find the best info to create a page on the whole book? Michel (dear Franco, see 1,2,3 as proposed series, to be published sept 20 and after, on alternative days (20, 22, 24) ? On Fri, Sep 9, 2011 at 2:00 AM, Kevin Carson < [email protected]> wrote:
do you have specific historical references to the topic of feudal-capitalist continuation? especially if available online?
I can track down the Wallerstein and Hill references for you. BTW, critiques of Soviet "state capitalism" by people like Rosa Luxemburg and the Frankfurt School argued that the Soviet ruling class had made a similar transition, in a manner analogous to a subset of the feudal classes becoming the agrarian capitalists: in this case, the transition was to a post-capitalist collectivist system which was not genuine socialism but an authoritarian managerialist oligarchy.
Sorry this has taken me so long, Michel. All the relevant quotes are in the Conclusion to Ch. 4 of Mutualist Political Economy: http://www.mutualist.org/id65.html
