Kozo Uno influenced a whole generation of marxian political
economists in post World War II Japan. Thomas Sekine worked closely
with Uno in Japan and later came to York University in Toronto,
where he introduced Uno's ideas to Canadian scholars. Sekine has
significantly enlarged and refined Uno's work, and in the process
has influenced scholars in both Japan and Canada. This anthology is
a collection of essays in marxian political economy by scholars who
have been influenced by Sekine's particular appropriation of Uno's
ideas.
This unique book, written in a question and answer style, brings to
life the work of the world's foremost Marxian economist Thomas T.
Sekine on the scientificity of Marx's project in Capital, its
applicability to navigating world-historic change across capitalist
stages of development and what Marxian economics teaches us about
building viable future historical societies. Sekine, a student and
follower of Marxist Kozo Uno, argues that capitalism neither
constitutes the end of history nor does its overthrow await
socialist revolution. Rather, based upon its own historical
delimitations capitalism, following World War I and the Great
Depression of the 1930s, has entered a period of disintegration.
Grounded on a scathing critique of bourgeois economics in all its
forms, Sekine exposes the futility of bourgeois policy
interventions attempting to revive capitalism. This book will be of
interest to economists in both the mainstream and heterodox
schools, and those broadly interested in the history of economic
thought.
"It would take a scholar with a formidable intellect to be able to
significantly refine the work of Kozo Uno, the brilliant Japanese
economist who had advanced the most sophisticated and convincing
reconstruction of Marx's unfinished masterpiece, Capital, to have
hitherto been attempted. This impressive essay collection drawing
from Thomas Sekine's work from the 1970s down to the present day
and covering much of the full gamut of Sekine's wide ranging
intellectual interests, includes discussions of the correspondence
of Hegel's dialectic and the dialectic of capital, the dialectic as
the basis for social science, the defense of value theory, the
proper solutions to both the dialectical and mathematical
transformation problems and the ex-capitalist transition. This is
required reading for any serious heterodox economist, whether
Marxian or otherwise." John R. Bell (formerly Professor, Seneca
College)
Volume 1 of The Dialectics of Capital This is the first book
written in English to build upon the important and underappreciated
work of Japanese economist Kozo Uno (1897-1977) and his efforts to
expose the "thing-in-itself (or inner logic)" of capitalism.
Following the form of argument first elaborated in Hegel's Logic,
Sekine shows that neither "bourgeois-liberal" nor even
"conventionally-Marxist" economics possess a logical (and thus
objective) knowledge of capitalism as such, and therefore fail to
understand some of its fundamental aspects. Originally completed in
typescript and privately published at York University, Canada, in
1983, The Dialectics of Capital's influence was profound despite
its very small first run. As contemporary capitalism stumbles from
crisis to crisis, this book can serve as a dependable guide for
those aiming to correctly terminate a system that has long since
outgrown its usefulness.

There are many kinds of nuc1ear data books; however some are too
much specialized, while others have an arrangement of information
which is inconvenient for students to use. With this book, we want
to amend these situations. Handbooks of natural sciences must be
exact and fair in their presentation of materials and they must be
logical and convenient to use. If the users can develop new ideas
or gain new insights from the books, they can be judged as
valuable. The role of handbooks is not only to give a systematic
representation of past knowledge, but also to serve as a basis for
intellectual activity leading to future development. The purpose of
this data book arises from the points described above. The chart of
the nuc1ides which is frequently consulted by radioisotope users is
not always convenient. By comparison, our Periodic Table with
Nuc1ides has been devised with this in mind. It has been our
experience that properties of a desired nuclide could be found in a
much shorter time in the Periodic Table with Nuc1ides than in other
nuc1ide charts. Additionally, by placing the -stabi1ity line within
the nuc1ides in the table, the users may derive unam biguous ideas
on the stability of the nuc1ides and the paths related to the
creation of stable elements in the universe."
