Book Review

«Capital: Critique of Political Economy» by Karl Marx is a foundational work that has had a tremendous impact on the development of economic theory and political thought. Critics note that Marx deeply analyzes the nature of capitalism, exploring key concepts such as commodity, value, money, and capital. He reveals the mechanisms of labor exploitation and capital accumulation, making his work relevant even in the modern context. Some critics highlight the complexity and difficulty of the text, requiring significant effort from the reader to comprehend. However, despite this, «Capital» remains an essential source for studying economic and social processes, as well as for critically understanding the capitalist system. Marx's dialectical methodology and historical materialism continue to spark interest and debate among scholars and politicians, attesting to the enduring significance of his work.
