Primitive Accumulation: The Collapse of Feudalism
Primitive Accumulation: The Collapse of Feudalism
Damn this is a good video! It's amazing how clear and cogent materialist history is compared to liberal, idealist history. This video lays out the way the transition to capitalism was disastrous for the peasantry, who resisted proletarianization at every step of the way. It also gives a lot of attention to capitalism's invention of modern gender roles as means of economic warfare against women. It's class conflict all the way down.
I really strongly recommend you take the time to give this a watch, it's good shit.
