Re: Jeff Madrick on "The Computer Revolution"

[Rakesh Bhandari]

On the issue of whether lean production enables true consumer sovereignty
for the first time--the consumer becoming "the sun around which the lean
production system turns"--Tony Smith has developed a critique in "The
Capital/Consumer Relation in Lean Production" in *The Circulation of
Capital: Essays on Volume II of Marx's Capital*, ed. CJ Arthur (St Martins,
1998), as I have just discovered.
