Patterns of the Future: Understanding the Next Wave of Global Change
Markku Wilenius 2017. (University of Turku, Finland).

... Roemer's work on exploitation led him to believe that the fundamental cause of exploitation was inequality of ownership of productive assets, rather than the kind of oppression that occurs in the labor process at the point of production—the latter view was held by many in the 'New Left' (see, e.g., Braverman 1974)
