Stoetzler explores Moishe Postone’s book Time, Labor, and Social Domination and its relevance for discussions of class, social movements and the critical theory of capitalism and modernity. He discusses the central categories of Postone’s work, including ‘abstract labour’ as labour’s function as the socially mediating activity in capitalism, class struggle as a driving element of capitalism, the specifically capitalist dichotomy of material wealth and abstract value, and the specific dialectic of concrete and abstract time in capitalism.
