Capitalism roots in pre-capitalist societies only through imposed transitional colonial modes

Evidence

Rey is also much concerned with the way the lineage societies are interrupted and disarticulated by the exterior force of capital—often through violence and what Marx called the “fact of conquest” (Foster-Carter 1978). Rey sees the “rooting” of capitalism in these pre-capitalist modes as possible only with the implantation of “transitional modes”—precisely the function of the colonial period. — Hall, Stuart, Essential Essays, Volume 1, 614
