(4,54 Sterne; 88 Bewertungen)
Orignally written as a series of newspaper articles in 1847, Wage-Labour and Capital was intended to give an overview of Marx’s central threories regarding the economic relationships between workers and capitalists. These theories outlined include the Marxian form of the Labour Theory of Value, which distinguishes “labour” from “labour-power”, and the Theory of Concentration of Capital, which states that capitalism tends towards the creation of monopolies and the disenfranchisement of the middle and working classes. These theories were later elaborated in Volume 1 of Capital, published in 1867.
This edition of Wage-Labour and Capital, published in 1891, was edited and translated by Friedrich Engels, and remains one of the most widely read of Marx’s works. (Description by Carl Manchester).

I tried reading Capital, but I couldn't understand it without devoting time I did not have to give it my undivided attention. This explains Marx's detailed analysis of Capitalism very well and is relatively convincing and easy to understand.

This volume is an amazing analysis of the economic forces driving labor involved in period labor markets that is still completely applicable to this day.
An excellent introduction

Sometimes uses 'obvious' jumps in logic to glaze over weaknesses while repeating the main concept ad nauseam. This can make a point seem stronger than it is. Otherwise it is an interesting discussion on economy of labor.
Very interesting, I suggest everyone read this book and ask themselves if Marx argument is validated by modern capitalism or if modern capitalism disproves Marx's theory.

Why does the reader use reverb or echo on this recording? Itâs unlistenable.
