In a spirit of friendly disagreement, I would like to offer a short and, I hope, constructive criticism of the article, "Class Power and Alienated Labor," by Samuel Bowles and Herbert Gintis in the March 1975 issue of Monthly Review. This article's main point is to show "that alienation is a social rather than a psychological problem at its root," and that it occurs "not because of the nature of technology and the division of labor, but because of the nature of class structure and the social relations of production."This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where most recent articles are published in full.Click here to purchase a PDF version of this article at the Monthly Review website
