“The exploitation of the weak by the powerful, organised for purposes of economic gain, buttressed by imposing systems of law, and screened by decorous draperies of virtuous sentiments and resounding rhetoric, has been a permanent feature in the life of most communities.

– RH Tawney, Material Riches (1926) in ed B MacArthur, 20th Century Protest.
