which is the excess of value produced by the labour of workers over the wages they are paid and this value then goes to the capitalist who keeps it. The surplus value represents the rate of exploitation of the workers by the capitalists. Marx thought that as the working class grew more aware of the exploitation that they supposedly suffer from the upper class they would rise up and, just as feudalism was replaced by capitalism, that communism would replace capitalism, he saw this as…

Enormous Wings”, by Gabriel Garcia Marquez is subtitled ‘A Tale for Children’, however; the complicated story line may not likely be understood by a child (319). The story’s theme of magic realism coincides with the lesson the author tries to teach on exploitation. Although it is not clearly portrayed one could assume, due to the author’s history, that the story takes place in rural Columbia. The small village, close to the sea, had experienced rain for several days, and crabs overrun their…

However, it is important to note that severe forms of contemporary exploitation are about slave holding rather than slave owning. It is more “holding” than “owning” since humans can no longer be owned in the legal sense. But whether it is holding or owning, it is illegal and a violation of one’s human rights. There are many…

breadwinners increasing, such a pay discrepancy could hurt our consumer driven economy (WB 1), thus managing this issue is vital for a growing economy.

Both factors appear to be the cause and sustenance of the wage gap, and resolving them will bring the end of this issue, and promote a healthy economy in the future Traditionally speaking, men have held the…

Conservation criminology is an interdisciplinary study of the exploitation of the environment we humans have, while thinking about the consequences our environmental exploitation has on society. The first example of conservation crimes is releasing chemicals or toxins in the environment like estrogen based-pharmaceuticals, antidepressants, and anticonvulsants in aquatic ecosystems. It might not be illegal in some cases, but it's a conservation crime because it affects the aquatic life which can…

receive education are taking advantage of it. Some are actually using this knowledge given to them to take advantage of others just as King said, “Most of the “brethren” think that education should equip them with the proper instruments of exploitation so that they can forever trample over the masses.” He also believes that education should “train” people for quick, single-minded, effective thinking and not just take in the education but not get anything out of it. Just having…

(Jessop, 2004). Marxism is also concerned with “the motor in a capitalist society, the mode of production that provides for material needs...the key aspect of this sphere, the private ownership of the means of production that pivots around the exploitation of productive labour” (Smith & Riley, 2011). According to Smith and Riley (2011) this is a materialist understanding of society for it sees the division between the owners and workers as necessary to generate wealth and income. This means that…

Marxism has been used to attempt to explain the capitalist conditions under apartheid in South Africa. Capitalism took the form of exploitation for profit under the oppressive apartheid system, as black labour was institutionalised as cheap, or rather, cheaper than white labor.

Racism is…
