Seminal works on the psycho-social effects of the capitalist mode of production and its accompanying bourgeois ideology?
non-seminal articles, books that explore the pyscho-social in the bourgeois world with regards to the conception of the 'rights of man' and the 'rights of the citizen'?

Quote unquote "capitalism" is just the logical conclusion of human nature, and it has existed with us since the beginning of time. The barter system was capitalism. Feudalism was capitalism. What we have today is capitalism. The winners and losers have been different over time (but really, they've been the same, haven't they?), but it has always been capitalism.

Any simple book on the evolutionary biology and psychology of human nature would suffice for your puerile curiosity.

Very convincing rebuttal. The credentials of your authors will surely hold up against Steven Pinker's research.

Well, the particular conception of '(hu)man' and 'citizen' developed in Europe/N-America/and eventually further global in the past 200+ years certainly differs from non-bourgeois societies. The capitalist mode of production, which posits capital accumulation for the sake of capital accumulation, certainly hasn't existed for the whole of humankind all around the world. Or do you think that the conception of humans/citizens formulated since the late 1700s by government declarations doesn't affect the way we conceive of ourselves, and how we interact with others?
