a capitalist transformation of an essentially socialist relations of produc-
tion. This is also misleading; since the kibbutz cannot be said to offer a
socialist alternative when its main role and reason for existence as a con-
figuration of labor-Zionism is precisely to create a Jewish class society.
A socialist alternative is one which promotes the emergence of a classless
society. The current change in the economy of the kibbutz represents rather
a capitalist transformation of pre-capitalist relations of production. The
capitalist mode of production is predominating the petty bourgeois small-
scale commodity mode, a shift from primitive into modern accumulation.
A closer look at the dynamics of social change currently occurring in
the kibbutz reveals a greater complexity with regard to objective class
locations of different kibbutz communities and sometimes of different seg-
ments of the labor force in the individual kibbutz; this is especially true
in the cases of merger with other sources of capital. For example, the
kibbutznic labor force increasingly combining management and economic owner-
ship positions in the social division of labor within the kibbutz production
process. The kibbutz, in other words, is becoming simultaneously a self-
employed collective management and an employer. Management is itself an
essentially capitalist labor category, but self-employed management, whose
labor is exchanged neither against capital nor against revenue, is external
to the realm of capitalist relations of production. The comprehension of
such reality does, indeed, call for Olin Wright's conceptualization of the
objectively contradictory class locations. (Recall debate in Chapter I.)
Equally complex is the determination of the objective class-location
of kibbutznics who are laboring productively or unproductively in another
kibbutz or even non-kibbutznic capitalist enterprise: a phenomenon that is
