Marx's Capital, Capitalism and Limits to the State examines the
capitalist state in the abstract, and as it exists in advanced
capitalism and peripheral capitalism, illustrating the ideas with
evidence from the North and the South. The volume unpacks the
capitalist state's functions in relation to commodity relations,
private property, and the crisis-ridden production of (surplus)
value as a part of the capital circuit (M-C-M'). It also examines
state's political and geographical forms. It argues that no matter
how autonomous it is, the state cannot meet the pressing needs of
the masses significantly and sustainably. This is not because of
so-called capitalist constraints, but because the state is
inherently capitalist. Each chapter begins with Capital volume 1.
And each chapter ends with theoretical/practical implications of
the ideas which taken together counter existing state theory's
focus on state autonomy and reforms and point to the necessity for
the masses to establish a new transitional democratic state. But
the book goes 'beyond' Marx too, as it deploys the combined Marxism
of 19th and 20th centuries. Marx's Capital, Capitalism and Limits
to the State will interest scholars researching
state-society/economy relations. It is suitable for university
students as well as established scholars in sociology, political
science, heterodox economics, human geography, and international
development.
