Economic Divergence and Class Dynamics

This chapter analyzes the widening gap between wages and productivity since the 1970s and the role of political decisions in exacerbating workers' conditions. Through historical and contemporary lenses, it critiques neoliberal policies and discusses the implications of elite influence on academia and social movements. The conversation highlights the transformation of labor dynamics in the context of techno-feudalism, exploring the commodification of personal experiences in today's digital economy.
