Description: Marx'S Das Capital for Beginners by Michael Wayne, Sungyoon Choi With illustrations by Josh Siegal, this is an easy, fun guide to Karl Marxs hugely influential book "Das Kapital", which is particularly relevant to todays economic crisis. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Marxs Das Kapital cannot be put into a box marked "economics." It is a work of politics, history, economics, philosophy and even in places, literature (yes Marxs style is that rich and evocative). Marxs Das Kapital For Beginners is an introduction to the Marxist critique of capitalist production and its consequences for a whole range of social activities such as politics, media, education and religion. Das Kapital is not a critique of a particular capitalist system in a particular country at a particular time. Rather, Marxs aim was to identify the essential features that define capitalism, in whatever country it develops and in whatever historical period. For this reason, Das Kapital is necessarily a fairly general, abstract analysis. As a result, it can be fairly difficult to read and comprehend. At the same time, understanding Das Kapital is crucial for mastering Marxs insights to capitalism.Marxs Das Kapital For Beginners offers an accessible path through Marxs arguments and his key questions: What is commodity? Where does wealth come from? What is value? What happens to work under capitalism? Why is crisis part of capitalisms DNA? And what happens to our consciousness, our very perceptions of reality and our ways of thinking and feeling under capitalism? Understanding and learn from Marxs work has taken on a fresh urgency as questions about the sustainability of the capitalist system in todays global economy intensify. Notes With illustrations by Josh Siegal, this is an easy, fun guide to Karl Marxs hugely influential book Das Kapital, which is particularly relevant to todays economic crisis. Author Biography Michael Wayne is a Professor in Screen Media at Brunel Univerity in London. He has written widely on Marxist cultural theory, film, television and the media.
