ABSTRACT

Within these categories, however, class situations are further differentiated: on the one hand, according to the kind of property that is usable for returns; and, on the other hand, according to the kind of services that can be offered in the market. Ownership. of domestic buildings; productive establishments; warehouses; stores; agriculturally usable land, large and small holdings-quantitative differences with possibly. qualitative consequences-; ownership of mines; cattle; men (slaves); disposition over mobile instruments of production, or capital goods of all sorts, especially .money ~r objects that can be exchanged for money easily and at any time; disposition over products of one's own labor or of others' labor differing according to their various distances from consumability; disposition over transferable monopolies of any kind-ali these distinctions differentiate the class situations of the propertied just as does the 'meaning' which ·they can and do give to the utilization of property, especially to property which has money equivalence. Accordingly, the propertied, for instance, may belong to the class of rentiers or to the class of entrepreneurs.
