Beschreibung

This book critically introduces two compelling contemporary schools of Marxian thought: the New Reading of Marx of Michael Heinrich and Werner Bonefeld, and the postoperaismo of Antonio Negri. Each stake novel claims on Marx¿s value theory, the first revisiting key categories of the critique of political economy through Frankfurt School critical theory, the second calling the law of value into crisis with reference to Marx¿s rediscovered ¿Fragment on Machines¿. Today, ¿postcapitalist¿ conceptualisations of a changing workplace excite interest in postoperaist projections of a crisis of measurability sparked by so-called immaterial labour. Using the New Reading of Marx to question this prospectus, Critiquing Capitalism Today clarifies complex debates for newcomers to these cutting-edge currents of critical thought, looking anew at value, money, labour, class and crisis.

Zusammenfassung

Critically introduces readers to new readings of Marx's theory of value and critique of political economy for a contemporary age of crisis

Relates contemporary interpretations of Marx's work to their context within the wider development of Marxist theory, at a time of renewed interest and academic and political uptake

Interrogates prevailing optimism about the future of work in an age of machines and 'immaterial labour', conceptualizing what has changed and what has not about work and economic life under capitalism
