In Marx's time, the bourgeoisie generally refers to the owners of factories, farms or plantations, mines, and the like. The proletariat refers to the working class people who would man the factories, work the fields, and dig in the mines. Nowadays, work still occurs in these but also in other types of ways. What are some of the new ways that the bourgeoisie/proletariat relationship obtains in today's society? Try to describe a distinction between the owners of the means of production and the working class who sell their labor that doesn't fit into these more traditional categories.
