Abstract

One of the features of any hegemonic system of thought and practice is that while it may be possible to think and act against it, the difficulties of thinking and acting outside the terms of reference that have been set by it are immense. Something of this kind has affected the capacity of many of those who have tried to think and act outside the global field established by the historical phenomenon of industrial and financial capitalism. In the 19th century this applied to those who sought to salvage something from a pre-industrial and pre-capitalist economic system to secure a more reassuring foundation for the moral economy; whilst at the same time providing the material resources to establish a true alternative to capitalist enterprise. Only in certain very circumscribed fields, such as the mutual societies, the friendly societies and the co-operatives did these efforts succeed, at least for a time. --
