Capital: A Critique of Political Economy - The Process of Capitalist ProductionCosimo, Inc., 2007 M12 30 - 560 páginas First published in 1867, Capital, or Das Kapital, is the infamous treatise on economics and capitalism by Prussian revolutionary KARL MARX (1818-1883), who changed history with his 1848 book The Communist Manifesto.

Originally published in three volumes, Capital is here presented in five volumes. Volume I, Part I covers: . Commodities and Money . The Transformation of Money Into Capital . The Production of Absolute Surplus-Power |
