It was, however, met with a wall of silence from the mainstream economists and the establishment. Despite this, Capital became regarded in the workers' movement as the Bible of the working class.The aim of this book, written by authors from the International Marxist Tendency, is to help guide readers through the pages of volume one of Capital; to bring out the main themes and ideas contained within it; and to discuss the relevance of this great Marxist classic in terms of understanding the crisis-ridden world around us today - and, most importantly, how we can radically transform it.Available from Wellred in paper copy and as an ebookTable of ContentsPrefaceIntroduction: the making of Marx’s CapitalIntroduction: Marxism in Our Time1) Chapter 1: The Commodity2) Chapters 2-3: Money3) Chapters 4-8: Surplus-value4) Chapters 9-11: Exploitation5) Chapters 12-14: Productivity, Co-operation, and the Division of Labour6) Chapter 15: The Machine7) Chapters 16-22: Wages8) Chapters 23-25: Accumulation9) Chapters 26-33: The Origins of CapitalismAppendix 1: The Organic Crisis of CapitalismAppendix 2: ‘Underconsumption’ and the Marxist Theory of CrisisAppendix 3: The Tendency of the Rate of Profit to FallGlossary Next
