This Group was created to explore the primary existential, ontological "self-duality", "self-contradiction", or "internal contradiction" ["intra-contra-kinesis"] of the political economic system founded upon the capital-relation.

This "self-duality" deploys itself historically as an ascendant-phase of the capitals-system, followed by a "descendant"/decadent phase, making capitalism an ultimately "self-DIS-organizing system", a self-destroying system, thus calling for its supercession in a higher socio-economic system characterized by political-economic democracy.

Hypothesis: The "intra-duality" of the capitals-system is its self-development as one of both "self-expanding value", with a self-expanding mass of fixed capital-value [through "capital reinvestment"], & one of profit-incentivized, accelerating, profit-/productivity-increasing types of innovation -- consequently, also, one of 'self-contracting value', consolidation, centralization, & concentration of capital ownership, & later profit-rate impairment, due to technological obsolescence depreciation, or "moral depreciation", later converted, by fiat monetary systems, into continual price-inflation.

Impacts of these trends on the mentality of the concentrated capital-owning ruling class then gives rise to "Capitalist Anti-Capitalism", to humanocidal "Human Anti-Humanism", & to designer Depressions, World Wars, & an accelerating descent into STATE-capitalist totalitarianism.
