[The Bourgeouisie, by] subjugation of Nature's forces to man, machinery, application of chemistry... clearing of whole continents for cultivation, canalisation of rivers...is like a sorcerer, who is no longer able to control the power of the nether world whom he has called up by his spells...It is enough to mention the crises that by their periodical return, put on trial
(each time more threateningly) the existence of... Society
Karl Marx, The Manifesto of the Communist party, 1838
