> By the way Carrol, have you ever noticed that, in your mythopoetic understanding of the world, the role of "capitalism" just about exactly corresponds to that of "the Jew" in that of the anti-Semite?
This is almost exactly the perspective of Moishe Postone, who I think Carrol likes a lot. If you can get into JSTOR, the article where he develops this idea is here:

It's pretty good.
