bourgeoisement within all social formations (a local proletariat co-existing
with a correlative local bourgeoisie), and it does not always involve the
entire mass of immediate producers. This depends on the historical specifi-

generalization of the capitalist relations of production. Put differently,
proletarianization does necessarily presuppose capitalist relations of pro-
duction, but it is not peculiar to capitalist social formations.
The development of capitalism in metropolitan countries, for example,
resulted in the liquidization of the peasantry as a social class, and the
proletarianization of almost the entire mass of immediate producers (except
for some petty commodity producers who, being threatened by proletarianiza-
tion, immigrated to settle "new" lands: the United States, Australia,
South Africa, Palestine, etc.). Because accumulation of capital in the
metropolis occurred under the generalization of the capitalist mode of pro-
duction, effecting the polarization of society into capitalists and modern
wage-workers as the principal classes and social forces within those social
formations, they became capitalist social formations. A capitalist social
formation exists when capitalist relations are generalized in the form of
local proletariat and bourgeoisie. After colonialism, the reproduction of
