The study of capital as power (CasP) began when we were students in the 1980s and has since expanded into a broader project involving a growing number of researchers and new areas of inquiry. This paper provides a bird’s-eye view of the CasP journey. It explores what we have learned so far, reviews ongoing research, and suggests future trajectories – including the coevolution of Concepts of Power–Modes of Power (COP-MOPs); the origins of capitalized power; the state of capital; finance as the symbolic creordering of capitalism; the role of labour, production and waste; the capitalized environment; and the need for post-capitalist accounting.read more

TL;DR: In this article, it is argued that self-expression in work must at best be a luxury reserved for the very few regardless of social and economic organization, and even the satisfactions of society's elite must be perverted by their dependence on their dependence, with rare exception, on the denial of selfexpression to others.
