Objectification and Estrangement Sample Clauses

Objectification and Estrangement. In the Manuscripts, Xxxx identifies a process of objectification in which the subject objectifies itself in the object. The product of labour is “the objectification of labour” [EW, p.324]. Under the system of private property, revealed as the system of estranged labour, he argues that objectification only appears as the loss of and bondage to the object. Correspondingly, the appropriation of the object appears only as estrangement [EW, p.324]. Whilst Xxxx makes a clear distinction between the processes of estrangement and objectification, within the system of estranged labour they also appear to be internally linked.45 The process of estrangement is, for Xxxx, an inversion of the process of objectification in the sense that agency is transferred from the subject to the object. The object can then be described as displaying the properties of a subject, or it could be said, a quasi-subject. It seems therefore that, in “present-day” economic conditions as envisaged by Xxxx [EW, p.323], there is a process of estrangement that both preserves the kernel of objectification at the same time as having wholly inverted it. This theoretical framework, Xxxx claims, helps us to explain the inversion of activity and passivity that takes place under estranged labour. The activity of the worker appearing as passivity, 45 After having read the Manuscripts, Xxxxx Xxxxxx would subsequently criticise himself for not having made this distinction in History and Class Consciousness (in his Introduction of 1967 - Xxxxxx, G History and Class Consciousness (London: Merlin, 1971), p.xxxvi). and the passivity of the non-worker appearing as activity can now be understood through the appropriation of the products of labour. Xxxx argues that political economy fails to comprehend this estrangement. It is concealed because political economy ignores the “direct relationship between the worker (labour) and production” [EW, p.325]. In his project to “rise above the level of political economy”, Xxxx attempts to unveil this concealment [EW, p.288]. But he also points to the real domination of the product, capital, over the worker and the fact that it actually confronts the worker as an “autonomous power” [EW, p.324]. This poses a set of problems which are at the same time both theoretical and practical. Is it possible for the product both to have an authentic “autonomous power” and to be a quasi-subject? How does Xxxx propose to gain access to the direct relationship between the worker and pro...
