Capital: The Process of Circulation of Capital (Annotated)
Enriched Edition. Circuits, Turnover, and Social Reproduction in the Critique of Political EconomyBy Karl Marx
Length23h 38m
About this audiobook
Capital: The Process of Circulation of Capital, the second volume of Marx's great critique of political economy, shifts attention from the production of surplus value to the movement of capital through its successive forms: money, productive activity, and commodities. More analytic than polemical, the work develops a rigorous vocabulary of circuits, turnover time, reproduction schemes, and the interdependence of departments of social production. In the context of nineteenth-century political economy, it deepens and unsettles classical theories of exchange, accumulation, and crisis. Karl Marx wrote these manuscripts after decades of engagement with Hegelian philosophy, British economics, French socialism, and the realities of industrial capitalism. His exile in London, proximity to the British Museum, and observation of England's advanced capitalist system supplied both evidence and urgency. Published posthumously by Friedrich Engels in 1885, the volume reflects Marx's unfinished but extraordinarily systematic attempt to reveal capitalism as a dynamic totality. This book is essential for readers who wish to understand capitalism beyond the factory floor. Demanding yet rewarding, it is recommended to students of economics, history, sociology, and political theory seeking a profound account of circulation, reproduction, and structural instability.
