Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Non-Co-Operation and the Bread Problem: The First Lecture of a Series Delivered to Calcutta University The plan of the extremists of the European movement in organising the workers to produce the main necessaries of life for themselves was to enable them effectively to boycott capitalism and bring about its downfall and, at the same time, transfer the whole political power to the democracy. But the economic organisation was of course not devised merely for fighting purposes, but as the best system from the point of view of the welfare of the working classes. The movement, therefore, attracted people interested in its constructive side. Most, in fact, were people to whom co-operation was itself the end, not a means to an end, and who had no idea of destroying capitalism. The plan of many co-operators was to establish industries that would produce some of the principal necessaries of life for themselves, that would be supported by the workers in capitalist-employment buying some produce from them to provide them with the money to purchase what they could not produce themselves, and it was hoped in that way to prevent unemployment, also unfair exploitation of labour, as the workers would have thus an alternative to employment under the capitalist, the result of which would be to give them great independence, and the power to demand good remuneration.
