Notes

"It follows that, in order to exist, every social formation must reproduce the conditions of its production at the same

time as it produces, and in order to be able to produce. It must therefore reproduce:

1. the productive forces,

2. the existing relations of production."[1]

Mechanisms of Reproduction include the procreational and the ideological mechanisms.

Procreational mechanisms are those mechanisms which ensure the generation-to-generation reproduction of the "labour" force.

Ideological mechanisms ensure the reproduction of suitably trained and prepared labour force.

Under the extant regime, procreational mechanisms include the Nuclear Family, the assertion of a Gender Binary (forces women into a restrictive reproductive roles). Ideological mechanisms include the corporate media, and the primary, secondary, and post-secondary "educational" systems.
