Abstract: Abstract Oscar Braun’s theory of Unequal Exchange has never been published in English. His untimely death in January 1981 is the reason why no more than a draft English translation exists (Evans, 1981, p. 601). Besides the Spanish original there exists a full French translation (in Amoa and Braun, 1974). In his tribute to Braun, Evans also speaks of ‘Italian and German editions’ (Evans, 1981, p. 601). While I could not find an Italian publication, the ‘German edition’ can only be Braun’s short article in Senghaas (1981) which had first appeared in 1974 and covers only parts of the book. However, in his article Braun himself summarises what he calls his ‘most important thoughts of my most recent work on imperialism’ (Braun, 1981, p. 137). It is a translation of Braun’s Postscriptum in Braun (1977, pp. 105ff.) that is also published in Amoa and Braun (1974, pp. 243ff).
