los Estados capitalistas occidentales siguen un modelo político que consiste en el desplazamiento de todas las batallas por la igualdad de oportunidades al ámbito privado: las mujeres y los hombres jóvenes deben resolver juntos cómo conciliar la vida familiar y la profesional para ambos […] Los jóvenes licenciados tienen que tratar de aceptar que el mercado laboral no los está esperando con los brazos abiertos, precisamente. Los jóvenes de origen turco o árabe deben demostrar a la sociedad su voluntad de participación para que dejen de discriminarlos.

The main substantive achievement of neoliberalization, however, has been to redistribute, rather than to generate, wealth and income. …[T]his was achieved under the rubric of ‘accumulation by dispossession’. By this I mean the continuation and proliferation of accumulation practices which Marx had treated of as ‘primitive’ or ‘original’ during the rise of capitalism. These include the commodification and privatization of land and the forceful expulsion of peasant populations (compare the cases, described above, of Mexico and of China, where 70 million peasants are thought to have been displaced in recent times); conversion of various forms of property rights (common, collective, state, etc.) into exclusive private property rights (most spectacularly represented by China); suppression of rights to the commons; commodification of labour power and the suppression of alternative (indigenous) forms of production and consumption; colonial, neocolonial, and imperial processes of appropriation of assets (including natural resources); monetization of exchange and taxation, particularly of land; the slave trade (which continues particularly in the sex industry); and usury, the national debt and, most devastating of all, the use of the credit system as a radical means of accumulation by dispossession.
