Alienation

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

Alienation, Marx's term, is the estrangement industrial workers experience from the product, the process, other workers, and their own capacities.

Show

A worker fitting one component all day owns none of the result and decides none of the method.

Watch for

Alienation is a structural relationship to work, not dissatisfaction with a job.
