Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Weak infrastructure, a low level of development and ‘underdevelopment’ generally can and does inhibit the metamorphosis of the commodity form within peripheral sites of production. Anti-commodity tendencies can also be manifest as ‘the commons’ refusing commodification, or as goods and resources destined for commodification but which resist the full evolution into the commodity form. This is deeply symptomatic of crisis and breakdown.
