📘 Marx, capital and the madness of economic reason by David Harvey

David Harvey’s book offers a clear, concise guide to Marx’s three-volume work on the circulation of capital. He outlines the architecture of capital as conceived by Marx, covering labour’s role in generating value (valorisation), the realisation of that value through sales and credit, and the subsequent distribution processes. Harvey contextualises these ideas within the political and economic landscape of the late nineteenth century, and then examines how technological, economic and industrial changes over the past 150 years might modify Marx’s original insights. Readers new to Marx or to economic theory will find the discussion approachable yet thorough, while scholars will appreciate the analytical depth and relevance of Marx’s core ideas.
