Synopsis
Excerpt from The Struggle for Existence
Primitive communism is, so far as we can learn, unmarked by any form of class slavery or servitude. This may be considered to be due to the fact that hunting and fishing - the principle ways 01 etting a living - were pursuits in which the emp oyment of slaves or captive workers would have been, for obvious reasons, a matter of great difficulty, if not of absolute impossibility. The communal clans sometimes took prisoners in their tribal wars, and, doubtless, if they ocula have seen any way to make anything out of these cap tives they would have done so. As it was, how ever, no such way being open they, it appears, generally served them (the prisoners as the piece de resistance at a cannibal banquet.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes a historical journey to trace how the working class has struggled for a better existence. Beginning with early hunting societies, the author shows how the drive to fulfill basic needs through hunting, agriculture, and industry has been a catalyst for social change. As societies evolved, new forms of exploitation and oppression arose, from slavery to serfdom and, eventually, to wage labor. The book argues that capitalism, with its inherent exploitation, has only deepened the struggle for workers, who must now confront the power imbalances caused by the concentration of wealth and the means of production. By shedding light on the historical and contemporary struggles of the working class, this book underscores the importance of collective action and political revolution to achieve a more just and equitable society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780259825340_0
