La démocratie contre la rente
Abstract
Today democracy is no longer faced with absolute, land-based rent ; it must above all confront financial rent, capital, which money mobilizes globally as a fundamental instrument in the control of the multitudes. « Financialization » is the present form of capitalist governance. Obviously, this is still tied to rent, and it repeats the latter’s violent intentionality – just as it takes over the ambiguities and contradictions of any figure of capitalist exploitation. It would thus be stupid to think that financial capital does not represent in itself an antagonistic moment, for it always includes within itself labor-force as a necessary elements, which is both a producer of capital and a threat to it
