Introduction to capitalism
“Capitalism is an economic system in which employers, using privately owned capital, hire wage labor to produce commodities for the purpose of making a profit” (Andersson & Eriksson 2010, p.125). Capitalist businesses often rely on the governing structures of workplace dictatorship, in which the owner of the company or business has the right to tell the worker what to do (Wright 2019). This structure in itself creates a power divide and social division. These power structures pertrude throughout the globalized economy.
