Sumario: | Capitalism as we know it presents typical dialectical features that
isolate it from nature, in which real oppositions make evolution revolutionary:
A dialectical metaphysics replaces the free flow of events allowing capitalist
relationships but preventing the practice of materialism. Some radically sceptical
issues in Hume’s Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, Dialogues
Concerning Natural Religion and A Treatise of Human Nature come useful
here. A materialistic approach with complete (i.e., non-dialectical) ruptures
in fact dovetails with Hume’s argument on the unpredictability of nature and
the predictability of human social activities. As a consequence, a thus renewed
materialistic political economy concerned with the concrete must work out
its own categories dynamically, to discard them once they have been proved
metaphysical. |
