Document Summary

As ernesto screpanti stated, it is the worker himself who converts [his wage] into whatever use-value he desires; it is he who buys commodities as he wishes . Of course, the conditions of his existence and the limited amount of money he can earn compel him to make his purchases from a fairly restricted selection of goods. (screpanti, 2004, 188). These pressing issues are relevant to an international relations scholar and to my research proposal because they highlight how the nature of capitalism is purely destructive and only benefits the bourgeois. The most important methods to gather information for this research paper is to utilize data bases that are relevant to karl marx and political theory. Also, seek out library books that are in correlation with the research as well and exploit encyclopedias that follow along this topic. This issue will be examined from the lens of karl marx"s theory in regards to how capitalism destroys the citizens of state.
