1. Beyond Capital
Toward a Theory of Transition
A sustained Marxist critique of capitalist society that treats capital not merely as a set of economic relations but as a totalizing social system whose reproduction produces recurring structural crises, alienation, and ecological limits; the book analyzes how capitalist forms of production, exchange and administration penetrate everyday life and social institutions, traces the historical development and contradictions that make reform inadequate, and argues for a radical transition toward democratically planned, socially useful production and collective control of resources as the only viable response to capitalism’s systemic crisis.
