Sinossi

In this text, the author deals with the power relationships between employers, workers and their organizations in capitalist societies. Starting from a critique of both the neo-classical and the classical/Marxist traditions of political economy, a three dimensional analysis of social power is developed which stresses the processes of cultural formation. This framework is used to investigate the patterns of dominance and subordination determined by the capitalist structure, gender division and occupational hierarchy. The egalitarian strategy is outlined for transforming the distribution of work, roles and resources by guaranteeing to every individual an unconditional basic income. The book should be of interest to students and teachers of all social science disciplines.
