• Relationships create class • History did not seem to
be his emphasis!

Marx and the Development of Capitalism:
Primitive
Feudalism
Capitalism
Tools make people exploitable
Lord vs. Serf
Capitalist vs. Worker
In each of the first three
revolutions, the bourgeoisie
serves as the agent of
transformation.
Slave
Socialism
Communism
Master vs. Slave
The Emergence of Merchant capital and Manufacture came from: widening commerce, divisions of production, technical advancements, exploitation of labor by employers - all creating a new class relationship.
Proletariat Wins!!!
