Theory is History

The central concept of the book is that theory must be grounded in the historical analysis of capitalism, challenging abstract bourgeois thinking that detaches economics from reality. The author explores the globalization of the law of value, examining the connections between capital and land ownership, modernity and religious interpretations, and the global expansion of capitalism, particularly in Russia and China. This anthology builds on previous work that emphasizes capitalism's imperialist nature, providing a nuanced understanding of its evolution in different contexts.
