Essays On Marx's Theory Of Value
Book • 2008
Isaac I. I. Rubin's 'Essays on Marx's Theory of Value' offer a rigorous interpretation of Marxist value theory, elaborating the social character of commodities and labor.
Rubin explains how capitalist exchange obscures social relations between producers, leading to the phenomenon known as commodity fetishism.
The essays dissect the categories Marx used to analyze value, labor, and the transformation of social relations into things.
Rubin's work is highly influential in Marxist scholarship for clarifying theoretical ambiguities and grounding Marx's critique of political economy.
It provides conceptual tools to understand how consumption and production recreate social hierarchies, as discussed in the episode.
