INVESTMENT ON POOR 51 TetzlafT arrived at the following results: "It is to be supposed that a rapid expansion of the capitalist mode of production is preconditioned by the maintenance of traditional sectors which are not viable by themselves (types 3 and 4). If this is right then a government which favours the modern sectors would be forced to leave the traditional sector largely in the state it is in, that is, it is to be kept in such a way that it provides enough seasonal labourers and hence fulfils its tributary function. There are indications that this probably corresponds to the political reality in Sudan." ;^ Redistribution with Giowth, op city p 122. 34 Ibid, p 134. ^ This phenomenon does not refer only to the small agricultural producers of the Third World. Neither does this form of valuation emerge only with the new World Bank strategy. Here we seem lo be confronted with a specific expression of the general law of capitalist appropriation. As C von Werlhof points out in her article, ^Zu den Folgen der Anwendung der Fraucnfrage auf die Kritik der politischen Okonomie" (1977), a similar relationship applies to housewife production. The housewife of the wage-dependent man performs the necessary work for reproducing the labour power of the man without being paid for it. This means that in this sector also subsistence production is not destroyed and the labour rendered there is not converted to wage-labour. The relations of capitalist reproduction of the family have been maintained since hundreds of years and arc reproduced together with capital relation. ;6 Roman Rosdolsky, Die Entstehungsgeschichte des Marxchen^Kapital^, Bd 2, Frankfurt, 1968, pp 86-97. 37 Rosa Luxemburg, Die Akkumulation des Kapiials, Frankfurt, 1970, p 286.

Wage reductions, retrenchments or closedowns of factories in real subsumed production have in the marginal reproduction, their counterparts in the undernourishment or eventually starvation at their own responsibility.
