Wages, Price and Profit
Understanding Economic Exploitation and Class Struggle in Capitalist SocietiesBy Karl Marx
Length2h 17m
About this audiobook
In "Wages, Price and Profit," Karl Marx presents a critical examination of the mechanics of capitalism, focusing on the relationship between wages, prices, and profits within the economic structure of the capitalist system. Written during the height of the Industrial Revolution, the text employs a didactic style that combines theoretical rigor with accessible language, making complex economic concepts comprehensible to a broader audience. Marx utilizes empirical data and philosophical inquiry to dissect the exploitation inherent in wage labor while examining how surplus value is generated, ultimately arguing that the capitalist mode of production is unsustainable in the long term due to its intrinsic contradictions. Karl Marx, a German philosopher, economist, and revolutionary socialist, wrote this seminal work as part of his broader critique of political economy. His life experiences in industrial Europe, coupled with his extensive studies in Hegelian philosophy and the impact of industrial capitalism on the working class, informed his analyses and calls for a socialist reformation. "Wages, Price and Profit" is rooted in his belief in human emancipation and reflects his commitment to unveiling the injustices of capitalist society through rigorous analysis. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the foundations of Marxist theory and the critique of capitalist economics. It not only provides valuable insights into the workings of capitalism but also fosters an understanding of the struggles faced by labor in pursuit of fair compensation. Readers will find themselves challenged, enlightened, and provoked to consider the deeper implications of capitalism on society and the future of labor.
