Essays on Marx's Theory of Value
Autor Isaak Ilyich Rubinen Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 oct 2020
Essays on Marx's Theory of Value(1924) emphasizes the importance of Marx's theory of commodity fetishism within the labor theory of value. It also argues that Marx's mature economic work represented the culmination of his lifetime project to understand how human creative power is shaped by social structures. He also discusses commodity production as a mere theoretical abstraction that only explains one aspect of a developed capitalist economy. The concept of value, as understood by Rubin, cannot exist without the other elements of a full-blown capitalist economy: money, capital, the existence of a proletariat, and so on.

Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
This book is an English translation of Essays on Marx’s Theory of Value, first published by Isaak Illich Rubin in 1923 in theSoviet Union.

As such, the present translation is conceived as a variorum edition, including for the first time in English all the essential supplementary materials related to this foundational work in Marx’s value theory. In addition to Rubin’s main work, this edition includes his four most important related publications, as well as ten debate articles written and published by his contemporary proponents and opponents.
