History as process without a subject

 And a process whose final judgement is economic  -  but is endlessly deferred.  ( Louis Althusser )

CAPACITY FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DEPENDS ON RACE

Capital, vol. 3, chapter 47: "The possibility is here presented for definite economic development taking place, depending, of course, upon favourable circumstances, inborn racial characteristics, etc . . . ."

Engels: (Marx and Engels, Selected Works, Vol. 3, p. 502.): "We regard economic conditions as the factor which ultimately determines historical development. But race is itself an economic factor . . . . "
