Being A Wheel But Supposed To Be At The Rudder: Ordinaryızatıon Of Capıtalist Individualism Over Italian Working Class Experience
Abstract
The article
acknowledges the distinctions among social classes. On the other hand, today
the members of different classes act in a similar manner for individual goals
at the individual level. The situation is due to the loss of power by the
massive worker class and the consequences of globalization negatively affecting
all classes in advanced capitalist countries. Common negativities cause them to
behave similarly at the individual level. This article claims that these
similarities constitute the ordinarization of capitalist individualism. The
experience of Italian working class will be focused on closely and the
historical evolution of the working class individualism will be examined in
order to explain the ongoing process, the transition process. In the last part,
similarities and reasons between the classes that constitute capitalist
individualism will be illuminated.
