dc.description.abstractThis thesis uses a Marxist analysis of capitalism to better understand the relationship between capitalism and democracy by specifically looking at the way in which capitalism distributes control over time. With centralization of time under the control of capitalist employers the outcome of liberal democratic inputs is naturally skewed towards the owning class, and against the working class. Understanding time this way offers a route to its politicization and can serve as an argument against the seeming neutrality of capitalism by making explicit the fact that its core logic is oppositional and alien to a truly democratic society.
