En este artículo se analizan las tendencias autodestructivas del capitalismo así como sus consecuencias y los desórdenes mundiales de su decadencia. Piqueras realiza una detallada exposición de los factores perturbadores más relevantes de este fenómeno: desde la caída de la tasa de ganancia, el descenso de la productividad o el agotamiento irracional de los recursos naturales, hasta la acumulación bélica de capital, el último desplazamiento de un sistema visiblemente agotado.
Since 2008, at the International Crisis Observatory, we have been working on the recurring structural crises of capitalism, their profound reasons, in order to be able to specify and explain its current systemic quagmire, which for us is nothing more than a symptom of its degenerative phase (“senile capitalism” Amin called it), tenden-tially terminal, without “terminal” necessarily meaning “imminent”. To locate ourselves in this trend, it is necessary to show that the conditions of degeneration are becoming more acute and that the development of the productive forces increasingly gives way to destructive forces, with the consequent decline of the whole of capitalist civilization. Dilution of value, social and environmental destruction, collapse of societies... In this article I intend to expose in the clearest and simplest way possible some of the processes that explain all this, as well as the conclusions or implications that are attached to them. I will do it in 20 points, for whose greater depth and exposition of data I have to refer at least to some of my previous works on the matter (Piqueras, 2014, 2017a, 2017b, 2018 and 2022, with its corresponding bibliography – and also that of the rest of the team-). I try to synthesize, in the most didactic way possible, some of the most relevant processes and factors for the analysis of the current phase of capitalism.
