This guide uniquely presents the three volumes of Capital in a different order of reading to that in which they were published, placing them instead in the order that Marx himself sometimes recommended as a more user-friendly way of reading. Dr Smith also argues that, for most of the twentieth century, the full development of the capitalist mode of production (CMP) has been undermined by the existence of a non-capitalist ‘third world’, which has caused the CMP to take on the form of what Marx called a highly developed mercantile system, rather than one characterized by an uninterrupted circuit of industrial capital of the kind he expected would develop.
Dr Kenneth Smith is the author of Emile Durkheim and the Collective Consciousness of Society, a Study in Criminology (Anthem Press, 2014) and Perspectivism, a Contribution to the Philosophy of the Social Sciences (The Bardwell Press, 2020).
