Abstract
This article deals with privatization, combining viewpoints presented both in critical discourses of the welfare state and in the debate on marginalizaiion and the crisis of labour society. Privatization is currently gaining ground in the welfare state. The welfare state, then, is in crisis, whether considered from the point of view of pnvate capital, the welfare citizen, or its own inner logic. The mobilization strategy outline at the end of the article is a political solution to the contradictions of the welfare state, much in the same way as the welfare state was a political solution to the problems of capitalist society. In both, the structures that generate the contradictions remain intact.
