Synopsis:

Capital V3, Part 1, The Process Of Capitalist Production As A Whole: A Critique Of Political Economy (1909) is a seminal work by the renowned philosopher and economist Karl Marx. This book is the third volume of Marx's magnum opus, Capital, which is widely considered to be one of the most important works in the history of economic thought.In this volume, Marx focuses on the process of capitalist production as a whole, providing a detailed analysis of the economic system and its inherent contradictions. He examines the role of capital, labor, and the state in the production process, and explores the ways in which these factors interact with one another to shape the economy.Marx's critique of political economy is centered around the idea that capitalism is a fundamentally exploitative system that benefits the few at the expense of the many. He argues that the accumulation of capital is the driving force behind the system, and that this accumulation is achieved through the exploitation of the working class.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of the capitalist system. Marx's analysis is rigorous and detailed, and he draws on a wide range of historical and contemporary examples to illustrate his points.Overall, Capital V3, Part 1, The Process Of Capitalist Production As A Whole: A Critique Of Political Economy (1909) is a seminal work that continues to be widely read and debated by scholars and economists around the world. It is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complex workings of the capitalist system and the ways in which it shapes our lives and societies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

About the Author: Described as one of the most influential figures in human history, Karl Marx was a German philosopher and economist who wrote extensively on the benefits of socialism and the flaws of free-market capitalism. His most notable works, Das Kapital and The Communist Manifesto (the latter of which was co-authored by his collaborator Friedrich Engels), have since become two of history s most important political and economic works. Marxismthe term that has come to define the philosophical school of thought encompassing Marx s ideas about society, politics and economicswas the foundation for the socialist movements of the twentieth century, including Leninism, Stalinism, Trotskyism, and Maoism. Despite the negative reputation associated with some of these movements and with Communism in general, Marx s view of a classless socialist society was a utopian one which did not include the possibility of dictatorship. Greatly influenced by the philosopher G. W. F. Hegel, Marx wrote in radical newspapers from his young adulthood, and can also be credited with founding the philosophy of dialectical materialism. Marx died in London in 1883 at the age of 64.
