The social system grows rigid but the productive forces continue to expand, and conflict ensues between the forces of production and the social conditions of production.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Social struggles have been taking place throughout millennia, since human beings, by resorting to wars, were able to take hold of a surplus production to satisfy the essential needs of life.
Because capitalist society has expanded the productive forces so enormously, the social conditions under which it arose lag behind and become fetters holding back the further growth of productive forces.
The stage of the development of the productive forces determines the political and ideological superstructure of society which are crystallized into a system of social organization.
Capitalist production, therefore, develops technology, and the combining together of various processes into a social whole, only by sapping the original sources of all wealth - the soil and the labourer.
Capitalism has socialized production. It has brought thousands of people together in the factory and involved them in new social relationships.
In an industrial society which confuses work and productivity, the necessity of producing has always been an enemy of the desire to create.
The system has for its object an increase of persons that are to intervene between the producer and the consumer, living on the product of the land and labour of others, diminishing the power of the first, and increasing the number of the last.
Our power creates collective production in the service of the people and the revolution, destroys exploiting production, transforms individualistic producers into producers integrated into the collectivity.
In so many things, growth comes from adversity.
We are a heterogeneous society. We have to accept that. Growth has to be such that the most backward sections also benefit from it. Otherwise, it will be a very imbalanced growth.
