A re(in)statement of the labour theory of value
评述并论证了一种马克思传统的劳动价值与价格理论,该理论不受通常关于概念一致性和经验相关性的批评,并提供了对劳动力价值和资本主义基本范畴的理论与经验解释。
This paper surveys and argues for an account of labor values and prices in the Marxian tradition that is not subject to the usual criticisms concerning their conceptual coherence and empirical relevance. This reformulation, first suggested (independently of each other) by G. Dumeenil and D. K. Foley, provides a powerful account that overturns almost a century of misconceived orthodoxy. In doing so, it enables a theoretically coherent account of the value of labor-power and an empirical account of the fundamental categories of capitalism. Copyright 1994 by Oxford University Press.
