Synopsis
One of the most notorious works of modern times, as well as one of the most influential, Capital is an incisive critique of private property and the social relations it generates. Living in exile in England, where this work was largely written, Marx drew on a wide-ranging knowledge of its society to support his analysis and generate fresh insights. Arguing that capitalism would create an ever-increasing division in wealth and welfare, he predicted its abolition and replacement by a system with common ownership of the means of production. Capital rapidly acquired readership among the leaders of social democratic parties, particularly in Russia and Germany, and ultimately throughout the world, to become a work described by Marx's friend and collaborator Friedrich Engels as 'the Bible of the Working Class', The first volume of a political treatise that changed the world One of the most notorious works of modern times, as well as one of the most influential, Capital is an incisive critique of private property and the social relations it generates.

Luckily, Marx offers knowledge of political economy that serves any committed reader or student, regardless of political motivation or political orientation. This is because the tone of Marx's Capital is not revolutionary or political at all. Instead, Marx tries to be as objective as possible in presenting theoretical understanding of how money is made by a capitalist enterprise, especially from the perspective of production.
