Michel Vakaloulis, The Era of Flexible Accumulation : "Volatilization of Capital" and Massive Insecurity of Work
From the middle of the 1970s, fordism has seemed to be weakening. The capitalist modernization strategies applied in order to remedy this situation are not simple or superficial adaptations but rather modify the structural framework of the fordist mode of regulation. These practices tend towards a new configuration of capitalism, theorized by the expression "flexible accumulation" and distinct from that of "post-fordism" (flexible specialization). The capitalist strategies of rationalization/flexibilization transform all the practices of fordist socialization, most immediately salary relationships and modes of structural fragmentation in the labor force. In this context, optimal mobility becomes the pivotal element of the new orthodoxy. Work becomes more flexible and capital becomes a "volatile" social relationship adaptations but rather modify the structural framework of the fordist mode of regulation. These practices tend towards a new configuration of capitalism, theorized by the expression "flexible accumulation" and distinct from that of "post-fordism" (flexible specialization). The capitalist strategies of rationalization/flexibilization transform all the practices of fordist socialization, most immediately salary relationships and modes of structural fragmentation in the labor force. In this context, optimal mobility becomes the pivotal element of the new orthodoxy. Work becomes more flexible and capital becomes a "volatile" social relationship. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
