According to Ruyle,[1], exploitative techniques are the "precise instrumentalities through which economic surplus is pumped out of the direct producers: slavery, plunder, tribute, rent, taxation, usury, and various forms of unequal exchange." Exploitative techniques are one of three factors (the others being the Mechanisms of Force and Ideological Institutions0 which together constitute a particular Mode of Exploitation (a.k.a.The System).

Notes
According to Ruyle[2] any specific Mode of Exploitation consists of three interrelated factors; these factors include
- Exploitative Techniques (i.e. the mechanisms through which economic surplus is extracted,
- Mechanisms of Force (like the police and the army who are called in to ensure regimes of extraction continue by physically coercing the population if necessary), and
- Ideological Institutions (like the elementary education system, the Catholic Church, Hollywood, and the family, tasked with controlling the minds of the exploited populations.
