In its positive aims, however, this form of Socialism aspires

either to restoring the old means of production and of exchange,

and with them the old property relations, and the old society, or

to cramping the modern means of production and of exchange,

within the framework of the old property relations that have

been, and were bound to be, exploded by those means. In either

case, it is both reactionary and Utopian.

Its last words are: corporate guilds for manufacture, patriarchal

relations in agriculture.

Ultimately, when stubborn historical facts had dispersed all

intoxicating effects of self-deception, this form of Socialism

ended in a miserable fit of the blues.
