Abstract
We are theorizing that industrial capitalism has evolved to a new level of productive capacity, and that the structure of the forces of production are so different from the old-fashioned smoke-stack factory system as to have engendered a whole new set of social relations. In Marxian terms, a new mode of production has evolved (but not the one that Marx had envisioned, of course).
