Quotes by Samuel Bowles (?)

“The political perspective of this book, ironically, is the progeny of the progressive potential of capitalism as an historical system. The joint possibility of universal material well-being and the democratization of society is a product of the capitalist era. But the history of capitalism is a chronicle of the tension between possibilities and limits: democracy and universal affluence in perpetual and ubiquitous conflict with class domination - itself a product of the social organization of capitalist production.”
― Samuel Bowles, Schooling in Capitalist America: Educational Reform and the Contradictions of Economic Life
