Description
Summary:Written more than 30 years ago, The Limits of Capital, by David Harvey, was published with the promise of reconstructing Marx's theory of crises and, at the same time, updating his concept to think about contemporary capitalism. To this end, it establishes three cutouts. In the first, it investigates the internal dialectics of the contradictions between the development of productive forces and the social relations of production; in the second, it examines temporal dynamics and how these “are shaped and mediated through financial and monetary arrangements”; and, finally, in the third section, it attempts to integrate the geography of unequal development into the theory of crisis.
