Marx’s Capital II, The Circulation of Capital: General Introduction

Christopher J. Arthur and Geert Reuten

Chapter 1 in The Circulation of Capital, 1998, pp 1-16 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract To understand how the life and growth of capital related to the exploitation of people was Marx’s aim in his great work, Capital. But for a comprehensive account of the logic of capital’s life process it was necessary to go beyond the dynamic of class struggle at the point of production elucidated in the first volume of the work. Marx discerned three complementary aspects of capital’s movement which he treated in three books: the production of capital (1867); the circulation of capital (1885); and ‘the process as a whole’ (including distribution) (1894).
