“The period we live in today, marked by inequality, was formed by the defeat of the organized working class in the West and the collapse of the USSR in the East.” “Since the 1980s, inequality has grown.” Exactly. That’s 100%. It’s the regressive phase of the socialist CER cycle of 1917. Since the beginning of the 80s, ALL the economic variables favorable to the working class that had grown until the 80s have decreased until today. The resulting inequality increases. You’ll see it in my book, which I’ve mentioned to you several times. Regards Enviar comentarios
One more question. The word “collapse” is incorrect when referring to the dissolution of the USSR. “Collapse” refers to a breakdown caused by some internal failure of the system. The correct word is “overthrow” by attack. Overthrow caused by some variable external to the system. Which variable? The global capitalist class. A class that, with the 1917 revolution, had not lost its majority in global productive capital. And it pressed to regain its dominance. It will certainly lose it with the next revolution between 2035 and 2045. Regards.
One last point. The only internal failing of the USSR, and of all real socialism to this day, was its failure to achieve total equality for the population. It did not eliminate class society. The emergence, unforeseen by the founding Marxist, of a bureaucratic class, which, influenced by the global capitalist class, appropriated a significant portion of the profits from socialist production, did not contribute to this step. Socialist production, in its main variables, far exceeded that of capitalism. For example, socialist growth was four times greater than capitalist growth (6% annually versus 1.5%) for several decades. The current declining growth of this semi-socialist China demonstrates this. Semi-socialist because it still maintains a high degree of central planning, which compensates for the privatization initiated by Deng Xiaoping. You will see this in my book. Regards.
