Los nuevos equilibrios capitalistas internacionales a través de un análisis de la competencia global

Abstract

In order to have a full understanding of the current phase of global competence, it is necessary to analyse the organization of the economic cycle, the characteristics of production and society, the role of the State, the relations between the international areas and the general interests concerning dominion and expansion that determine not only the financial and economic-commercial clashes, but also the real wars. All those problems, which are dealt with in depth all throughout this article, are closely related to the change from the Fordist system to the post-Fordist one, in a decisive and strategical way. That change has had considerable effects upon the labour market, due to the fact that, apart from having to restructure the capital, the hand labour is now poorly paid, decentralized and usually non-regulated; flexibility is imposed on it and job insecurity affects social life in general. According to the author, in order to understand the complexity of the changes we are seeing, it is necessary to apply new interpretation logics and new tools which has been ignored by previous economic studies, either «industrialist», «Fordist» or modernist «post-Fordist», as well as to re-launch the analysis of the conflict between capital and work.
