In this Wolff Responds, Prof. Wolff argues that capitalism is not a market system. Markets in fact, predate capitalism. What is distinctive about the capitalist system is the relationship between employer and employee. Capitalism is an undemocratic, authoritarian production system that has outlived its usefulness as evidenced by the disaster of global warming, the world-wide pandemic and the disasters of grotesque inequality.
