This is not the economic and financial crisis, as serious as it is, which can cause the end of capitalism that has seen many more. But if the output of capitalism has already begun, it's for other reasons, deeper and more lasting, related to our entry into the digital age and immaterial labor. It is these new productive forces that challenge the very foundations of industrial capitalism: both labor compensation that the employee exchange value or free digital.
It is for practical reasons, related to the reproduction of the productive forces, the production system is forced to change radically, as it was for reasons related to the material reproduction that the system will integrate the ecological limitations, including promoting the relocation of the economy. If the output of the labor society has already begun, for now it's mostly to our detriment by destruction of social protections and the explosion of insecurity. It will always be social struggles to win new rights and to redirect the new system to our emancipation and a more sustainable economy. Nothing will be done Artisans alone.
In any case, material in this context that our action can be decisive, far from utopia or subjectivity of values. The "new technologies" have a central role here, similar to the steam engine. There are not that materialism and reproductive techniques that must be taken into account, however, but just as the flow up the production system precisely: it is imperative that it works! To exit the capitalist productivism and its business model, it will not isolated initiatives or partial measures, it is necessary that the new relations of production and new features make the system (production, distribution, circulation), ensuring their reproduction .
What is a production system?
The systemic crisis manifested concretely everything that connects us to the world physically, like it or not. The economy-politics was born, itself, inflation caused by the influx of gold from the Americas in the late sixteenth century (Jean Bodin), showing the influence of distant events completely independent of us. Mercantilism attempted at first to answer this kind of "natural disaster" by the capture of up to precious metals, but the intensification of world trade that followed have strengthened interdependencies. It was not until 1758 that Dr. Quesnay shows, with his picture of the economy, the analogy between economic cycles and the blood system, social classes and between distant parts into a whole that makes the elements together. Later, we want to reduce their economic flows thermodynamic equilibrium (theories of balance and self-regulation of markets). Instead, we can consider that the main contribution of Marx has been shown that the production was well organized system combining production, reproduction and circulation system with its own dynamic (based on profit and innovation) with reports specific production (wage) adapted to the organization of production as well as the state of technology. Capitalism has differentiated from feudalism as well as a predatory economy as determined by production traffic, industrial investment and wage labor.
