This book analyzes key aspects of Marx's Capital with an eye
towards its relevance for an understanding of issues confronting us
in the 21st Century. The contributions to this volume suggest that
while aspects of Marx's original analysis must be adjusted to take
into account changes that have occurred since its initial
publication in 1867, his overall perspective remains necessary for
understanding the nature of crises in 21st century. Part I
emphasizes the central concepts Marx employed in Capital, including
exploitation, capital accumulation, commodity fetishism, and his
use of dialectics as a method for baring the underlying relations
that define capitalism. Parts II and III extend that focus by
addressing the concept of value, fictitious capital, credit and
financialization. Parts IV and V offer analyses of several concrete
manifestations of contemporary crises from national contexts
(Europe, Latin America, China, and the United States). The volume
argues that we have to combat the imperatives of capitalism to move
towards a more humane and egalitarian future.
