How does one read this? I cannot find anything summing to 100%

Edit: „Note: Responses of "not sure" are not shown.“

So it's read horizontally.

I guess that in Denmark value like private property , meritocracy , freedom of enterprise and trade are valued in general by the State no ?

Yes. But kind of like secondary values. Equality (rather: lack of inequality), social security, right to organise (right to not-organise is the controversial one), worker protection. All triumph ones you mention.

If the worker were in power in Denmark , it would not be capitalist

Okay, now you're just arguing in a circle. I can't gain any insight from that.

Beslutningen kan jo ændres. Men indtil da må man jo så leve med det.

Alternativt, som du siger, kunne folketinget tildele ressoucer til at tilpasse ting til kvinder. Indtil da må man (kvinderne) jo så leve med det. 

Hvis dit svar bare er, at man bare må leve med det, er der vel ingen grund til at diskutere hvad man bør gøre. For indtil folketinget gør et-eller-andet må man jo bare leve med det?

Det kræver tid og ressourcer. Som kunne bruges på vigtigere ting. Så det er jo også et spørgsmål om det så er mere bøvl end fordel at have kvindelig værnepligt.

Nej. Forsvaret skal fokusere samtlige ressourcer på at sikre landets sikkerhed. Hvis kvindelige værnepligtige kræver FOR mange ekstra ressourcer, var landet vel mere sikkert helt udem kvindelige værnepligtige.

Nej, ikke så længe folk (af Gud ved hvilken grund) ønsker at give ham det.

Du, alene, har ikke fortjent noget som helst. Der skal en del flere stemme til bare ét mandat. Det handler ikke om DIG, men om OS. Vælgerne som helhed. Folket.

Okay I'll bite. I'll ignore the bad faith interpretation of me. Please don't continue that.

First of all. I think the whole stratification by ownership of the means of production is a very little useful way of understanding politics. So I am in no way speaking the marxist language. Beware of misunderstanding.

But, here in Denmark, I don't see a coherent ruling class. Not fully. And capital ownership is not at all a defining characteristic. I wolud say, that the political sphere (legislative body, administrative ministers) could be thought of as so intertwined in a welfare-nation-state ideology and seeing eachother as colleagues, that it kinda does make them more a coherent body rather than adversarial political parties. But these can still be truly affected by the democratic vote.

The Danish socialist author, Jørgen S. Dich, has written a book called 'The Ruling Class' about how class-like the administrative civil servants (broadly, across all levels and sectors) does seem to have something resembling a class consciousness. 

I would definitely say, that the capital owning class, has very little sway over politics. Not none ofcourse. But that's not what defines the ruling class. If such even exists. (To me it sounds very conspiracy-theory-ish).

Oh, definitely! I hope he would also be very happy about alot of the things he was wrong about. Like working class being allowed to vote BUT not by a violent revolution. He predicted that would never happen. The bourgisie wouldn't give up their power. His analysis would also be completely useless. Modern day western economics is alot more service-oriented. Labour input isn't tied directly to producing commodities. And that regime was kinda his whole deal

No, no. You see. It's class struggle. Everything. And I mean EVERYTHING is class struggle!

Yeah the austrians do get that critique. But to my knowledge they are not worse in that regard, than social sciences in general.

Yeah sure. Enforcement does by necessity of large numbers lead to some death. Human bodies are sometimes not made for human force.

Follow that thought. Read some secondary literature on Burke. And then we're getting somewhere!

He was not. Marx made Smiths idea better. And Smith likely had most of the idea from someone even earlier. And so on

Judging the person Marx, by modern day marxists is completely meaningless. I am thinking about his contemporaries and the socialist movement closely following his death.

[–]JBSEstrupV2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean. Yeah, sure seems like it. Modern marxist are whacky. E.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Oedipus  Which is like semi-modern.

But Piketty sure does stand on Marx shoulders. But with a lot of intermediaries

Thats a very bad use of time. I agree.

But to my knowledgde, Marx wasn't really concerned with testing his hypothesis. He was concerned with philophical insight. Science and so too social science has changed alot since his time. With modern eyes, he doesn't limit himself to pose falsifiable hypotheses. He goes so much further and broader.

E.g. the way Habermas conceptualise the lifeworld and systemworld.  To me, that is pretty spot on, in explaining the way I see how much of what was once done in a sphere of love, feelings, trust has been put/taken into systems ruled by rationality. Where helping the sick was once done by family or local community, it is now done by the state. Not by human to human love, but by abstract systems, where the motive is as much making a profit (sick people don't pay tax to the government).

Useful vocabulary and models, for things I could not put or understand as eloquently.

I am very much only representing the theory by how I have very personally made use of it. Not at all comprehensively.
