In fact, long before he became an emperor, Caesar was notorious...

Though their power has waxed and waned, they continue to be a...

ISBN: 9780860917496 / Angielski / Miękka / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Ulrich Krause breaks new ground by applying mathematical techniques in an analysis of labor, money and exchange. Rejecting the notion of homogeneous labor as a basis of value theory, Krause develops his own understanding of the Marxist concept of abstract labor, which he then integrates with an analysis of money in the process of...
