I have defined the capitalist mode of production as being characterized by the exclusive appropriation by one class of means of production that are themselves the product of social labor. This exclusive appropriation by a certain class, although it has histor­ically taken the form of individual ownership of the means of production, may also take collective forms. Capitalism exists wher­ever means of production that have been produced by social labor - are not managed by society as a whole but by a section of the ■ latter, which then becomes a “bourgeoisie.” Capitalism makes its :. appearance when the level of development of the productive forces'i is sufficiently advanced for these means of production, which are ' themselves products, to be no longer simple enough to be man­ageable by the individual producer. The traditional peasant and craftsman make their own tools. Industrial workers cannot make their own factories. Consequently, the center of gravity of the

In the capitalist^mode, not only are the means of production that are produced by social labor substantial, but they are owned exclusively by one class, and so they play a predominant role in society. The surplus labor provided by the producers is distributed among the members of the dominant class in proportion, to the

rate of wages and~the rate of profit ;~it shows th at economic rationality is. not an absolute, that it stands no higher than..the rationality of the social relation that determines the division of Hncome between wages and profits, in other words, the division~of -^QciaUabor timejnto paid labor_and surplus labor. The descrip­tion does not, for all that, enableuT~tb~understand how the capitalist mode began and how it developed, since it assumes this mode as given.

The Marxist critique of political economy alone furnishes the system of concepts needed for this purpose, by approaching the task of explanation from the appropriate angle, which is not that of economics but of historical materialism.
