Primarily under conditions where the working class is
the overwhelming majority and in that majority becomes
class conscious enough to organise a social revolution
for themselves.  The industrial, productive capacity
for this transition out of commodity production has
been achieved by workers (under the political,
physical and psychological lash of their masters) in
many countries for many decades now.
