Social Capital

Living in exile in England, where this work was largely written, Marx drew on a wide-ranging knowledge of its society to support his analysis. Arguing that capitalism would cause an ever-increasing division in wealth and welfare, he predicted its abolition and replacement by a system with common ownership of the means of production. Capital rapidly acquired readership throughout the world, to become a work described by Marx's collaborator Friedrich Engels as 'the Bible of the working class'.

The legacies of Marx and Lenin continue to have a profound impact on socialist and communist thought.

In the third volume of Capital, Marx asserts that - regardless of the efforts of individual capitalists, public authorities or even generous philanthropists - any market economy is inevitably doomed to endure a series of worsening, explosive crises leading finally to complete collapse. But he also offers an inspirational and compelling prediction: that the end of capitalism will culminate, ultimately, in the birth of a far greater form of society.

While some semblance of stability has returned to the financial markets, the economies on which these markets must ultimately depend remain structurally weak, and the path toward sustained growth will be difficult. In order to set the economy on a sounder path, we need to understand the sources of instability that caused the failure of the financial system, rethink established ideas, and challenge the intellectual and moral authority of the institutions that control the world's capital.

El capitalismo está codificado por abogados. Esta es la conclusión a la que ha llegado la jurista Katharina Pistor.

Roma è sotto assedio. Un lungo assedio criminale che comincia già dopo la breccia di Porta Pia, con l’imponente lottizzazione e con gli scandali della Banca Romana; si rafforza con la presenza di mafiosi di caratura internazionale dediti allo spaccio di droga dopo la fine della Seconda guerra mondiale; si organizza con la comparsa della banda della Magliana e infine dilaga con l’inchiesta Mafia Capitale, che ha puntato i riflettori su un’associazione a delinquere arrivata al cuore della politica e dell’amministrazione capitolina, e che tuttavia la Corte di cassazione non ha ritenuto di qualificare come mafia.
