Abstract

A midtwentieth century began a dangerous period that worsened the exploitation of labor production factor by the capital production factor, supported in modern communication technologies and business concentration. Due to the increasing importance of banking, the process leads to the production of illicit profits and favors the existence of extremes of poverty and wealth at the expense of the middle class. The passivity of the population against this new kind of society is mainly due to the media, which are not at the service of citizens, but in the service of capital and the state. Modern communication technologies not are configured to inform, but rather to entertain, distract and numb to the public so it become accomplice of the expansion of neocapitalism.
