Primitive Accumulation in the United States: The Interaction between Capitalist and Noncoapitalist Class Relations in Seventeenth-Century Massachusetts
以17世纪马萨诸塞为例，说明资本主义关系并非自然发展，而是通过非资本主义阶级关系与政治、文化条件的复杂互动才产生。
Capitalist relations do not develop “naturally,” nor are the preconditions for capitalism assured by the rise of markets alone. This paper takes seventeenth–century Massachusetts as a case in point. Class relations there were noncapitalist. A brief exploration of these class relations as well as their economic, political, and cultural conditions of existence will show how complex interaction between classes produced the conditions necessary for capitalism.
