#ReadingSeries "No coarser insult, no baser aspersion, can be thrown against the workers than the remarks: 'Theocratic controversies are only for academicians.'..The entire strength of the modern labour movement rests on theoretic knowledge." - Rosa Luxemburg, "Reform Or Revolution" https://www.marxists.org/archive/luxemburg/1900/reform-revolution/index.htm
#ReadingSeries "We see that credit, instead of being an instrument for the suppression or the attenuation of crises, is on the contrary a particularly mighty instrument for the formation of crises. It cannot be anything else. Credit eliminates the remaining rigidity of capitalist relationships. It introduces everywhere the greatest elasticity possible." - Luxemburg, "Reform Or Revolution", Ch.2 "The Adaptation of Capital"
"The belief that capitalist production could “adapt” itself to exchange presupposes one of two things: either the world market can spread unlimitedly, or on the contrary the development of the productive forces is so fettered that it cannot pass beyond the bounds of the market. The first hypothesis constitutes a material impossibility. The second is rendered just as impossible by the constant technical progress that daily creates new productive forces in all branches." - Rosa Luxemburg
