Charles Eisenstein • Sacred Economics: Money, Gift, and Society in the Age of Transition
Systemic circulation carries the oxygenated blood from the left ventricle through the aorta and into the smaller arteries, where it finally ends up in the capillaries in the body’s tissues. From the capillaries, the deoxygenated blood travels through a system of veins and finally into the right atrium of the heart.

Rather, if circulation was an essential process of capital, it was because of “the constant continuity of the process.” In effect, Marx is positing 24/7 temporalities as fundamental to the workings of capital; he understood that these durational processes were also metamorphic. Within this “constant continuity” occurs “the unobstructed and fluid

It returns the oxygen-poor blood back to the right side of the heart by means of small venules and larger veins. The blood in this last part of the systemic circulation has

The main goal of the heart is to receive deoxygenated blood from the body, which has had much of the oxygen removed by the cells of the body (that use it up during aerobic respiration); pump this blood to the lungs through what’s called the pulmonary circulation; receive the oxygenated blood back from the lungs; then send
