O reino do capital - São Paulo : Editora 34, out./dez. 2003
"The Reign of the Capital". The article examines some constitutive aspects of capitalism from a historical and institutional point of view.

The result of this process is a pseudo-universal sociability whose main instance is the fetishism of commodities
