Class Warfare, Division of Labor and the Free Market
[
send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing free market philosophies of Karl Marx, Noam Chomsky,
George
Orwell and Adam Smith. Marx maintains that it is
within the power of 'the people' to take control of the power structure
controlling profits of owners at the expense of workers. However, Marx's 'the
people' is little more than a euphemism for the state, the Big Brother of which
Orwell
so chillingly wrote. Chomsky espouses the same general attitude, but on a
greatly expanded scale: multinational corporations are the owners of production;
the people of Third World nations are those exploited and abused. He allows no
credit for those people having intelligence of their own and the power to
control their own destinies. It is the Smith model that survives as the most
legitimate. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
