Abstract: Since the crisis of the 1970s, we have all focused on showing that the contradictions of capitalism were worsening the social condition of life, configuring a structural crisis. Depending on the structural elements of analysis, it is possible to say that this crisis extends to the present day. In this case, the most relevant aspect is capitalism’s inability to recover post-war dynamism and, by extension, its failure to incorporate larger portions of national populations into its accumulation movement. The result is structurally higher levels of unemployment compared to the previous post-Second World War period and an increase in social exclusion in most of the periphery and even in the center of the global system.
