Soc 185 Week 4 Reading Qs
Why do Patel and Moore say that resources become fuel because of human
relations rather than an innate property? - correct answer ✔There is no
innate property that makes resources (trees) fuel, but the human relationship
is what makes resources into fuel.


What do Patel and Moore say happened after the indigenous holocaust on the
Americas? How does this disrupt the Nature/Society split? - correct answer
✔After the indiginous holocaust (the europeans coming in with their germs
and diseases killing the indig. ppl) the trees in the forests that the indig. burnt
down had grown back, made America a "carbon sink," and decreased the
climate of the planet. This disrupts the nature/society split because Europeans
categorized indig. ppl with nature, but it shows that all humans were modifying
the world around them.


What do Patel and Moore mean when they say, "If cheap food is capitalism's
way of reducing the wage bill, cheap energy is the crucial lever to advance
labor productivity." What must happen first before cheap fuel can be the lever
for labor productivity? - correct answer ✔What they mean by how cheap
energy is important to increase labor productivity is that cheap energy aka fuel
is needed to fuel the machines that the laborers use. Before cheap fuel can be
the lever for labor productivity, you must get people out of the commons and
into the wage work.


Why do Patel and Moore say that "capitalism's global factory requires not just
a global farm and a global family, but also a global mine." How does this put
cheap food, care, and energy in conversation with each other? - correct
answer ✔This puts cheap food, care, and energy in conversation with each
other because cheap food is what they use to support the cheap workers and
their families, their families are there as cheap care for the cheap workers,
and cheap workers are working to produce cheap energy (coal) for the rest of
the globe.

, What is peat? Why did the Dutch originally ban the burning of coal? Why did
they ultimately allow coal to replace peat? - correct answer ✔Peat is the
newest of the fossil fuels, renewable, very abundant in the dutch republic, it is
an energy source used for heating and generating electricity. Peat is the
precursor to coal, before it is compressed. Dutch soil was filled with peat. The
dutch originally banned the burning of coal because coal dirtied the city and
caused people problems to breathe. But after a while the Dutch's energy
(peat) started to fail in the world-system because compared to England their
energy wasn't cheap enough, the work wages were too high.


What are the original sources of all wealth? How does capitalism undermine
these sources? - correct answer ✔They say the original sources of all wealth
is soil and the worker. Capitalism undermines these sources by developing
techniques and using the social process of production. Capitalism is leading to
its own destruction.


How was cheap energy met by the labor movement? How did cheap energy
make the labor movement possible? - correct answer ✔Cheap energy met
the labor movement when coal mining became a new demand, causing farm
owners and peasants to turn to wage work at the coal mines. In places like
England where they shut off the commons and made everyone turn to wage
jobs or industrial jobs, but they also made it harder for those people to access
wood and fuel. This led to labor movements on acquiring fuel. Cheap energy
made the labor movement possible by turning off freelance work and pointing
everyone in line of wage work. Patel and Moore believe that cheap energy is
extracted through the jobs given to the working class.


Why did the break away from the gold standard create inflation? What was the
reaction of OPEC to US dollar-dominated inflation? - correct answer ✔The
breakaway from the US gold standard created inflation due to the international
capital seeking refuge from the Nixon Shock of purchasing commodities. The
soviet union at the time was forced to trade oil for wheat which caused bred
prices to skyrocket. Then leading to OPEC announcing that the world oil
prices will increase by a few dollars a barrel.
