The Abolitionary

Dedicated to abolishing the power of the employer class and advancing human freedom, dignity, and collective self-determination.

Welcome

This site examines capitalism from the standpoint of workers and communities rather than employers.

Here you will find analyses of exploitation, labour law, ideology, unions, education, and workers’ resistance—often developed through multi-part series grounded in Marxian theory and practical experience.

If you are new to the site, the sections below will help you navigate major themes, core concepts, and ongoing projects.

Core Concept: The Money Circuit of Capital

Understanding capitalism requires understanding how money becomes capital and how capital expands through the exploitation of labour.

This page summarizes Marx’s exposition in Capital, Volume II, Chapter 1, and serves as a foundational reference for many posts on this site.
