Capital V1

Capital V1: A Critical Analysis Of Capitalist Production (1887) is a seminal work of political and economic theory written by German philosopher and economist Karl Marx. In this book, Marx explores the nature of capitalism and its impact on society, arguing that the capitalist mode of production is inherently exploitative and unjust.The book is divided into three parts, each of which focuses on a different aspect of capitalist production. In the first part, Marx examines the commodity and the process of commodity exchange, arguing that under capitalism, commodities become fetishized and abstracted from their social and historical context.In the second part, Marx delves into the process of capitalist production, exploring the relationship between labor and capital and the ways in which capitalists extract surplus value from workers. He also discusses the concept of alienation, arguing that under capitalism, workers become estranged from the products of their labor, from their own labor, and from each other.In the final part of the book, Marx explores the process of capitalist accumulation, arguing that under capitalism, the drive for profit leads to an ever-increasing concentration of wealth and power in the hands of a small capitalist class. He also discusses the role of crises in capitalist economies, arguing that they are an inherent feature of the system.Overall, Capital V1: A Critical Analysis Of Capitalist Production is a groundbreaking work of political and economic theory that continues to influence debates about capitalism and socialism to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
