Muammar Gaddafi — The Green Book, Part Two: "The Solution of the Economic Problem: Socialism" (1977): his anti-wage-labour economic theory — "Wage-earners are but slaves to the masters who hire them" — and the "Third Universal Theory" call to transform "societies of wage-earners into those of partners." [Second doc — distinct ECONOMIC axis, vs his Part One political-theory doc.]

Wage-earners are but slaves to the masters who hire them. They are temporary slaves, and their slavery lasts as long as they work for wages from employers, be they individuals or the state.

The transformation of existing societies of wage-earners into those of partners is inevitable as a dialectical outcome of the contradictory economic theories prevailing in the world today. It is also a dialectical outcome of the unjust relationship based on the wage system.

[SECOND DOCUMENT for Muammar Gaddafi, covering a DISTINCT axis (economic theory) from his existing Green Book Part One (political / direct-democracy "authority of the people") document. content_original is the canonical English translation of the Green Book Part Two (published 1977); the Green Book was written in Arabic (hence original_language=ar, source_language=en). Source: marxists.org's reproduction of the official English translation; tier-1 (the Green Book is Gaddafi's own foundational manifesto, the ideological charter of his Jamahiriya); confirmed verbatim against the fetched page. published_date left null — Part Two is dated to 1977 but no exact day is fixed.] A distinct declared position of Muammar Gaddafi — ruler of Libya (1969–2011) — on ECONOMICS, from Part Two of his Green Book ("The Solution of the Economic Problem: Socialism"). His "Third Universal Theory" rejects both Western capitalism and Marxist state-socialism in favour of a system abolishing WAGE LABOUR: "Wage-earners are but slaves to the masters who hire them. They are temporary slaves, and their slavery lasts as long as they work for wages from employers, be they individuals or the state." He calls the transformation of "societies of wage-earners into those of partners" inevitable — workers as profit-sharing partners rather than wage-earners — alongside his linked doctrines that "the house is for its dweller" (abolishing rent and landlordism) and that each person is entitled to meet their needs from their own production, not another's. This is the GADDAFI "THIRD UNIVERSAL THEORY" ECONOMIC pole — a populist, anti-capitalist, anti-wage-labour "socialism of partners" presented as a third way between capitalism and communism — complementing his Part One political theory of direct popular authority. [Axes: economy (anti-wage-labour; "partners not wage-earners"; abolishing rent/landlordism; producers' ownership; a declared "third way" between capitalism and Marxism), ideology (the Third Universal Theory; populist anti-capitalism), property (use-based ownership — "the house is for its dweller"; needs over profit), regime-economy (community/state control of production, distribution and exchange).]
