This book shows on the one hand how Marx draws out the relevance of value not just to capitalism, but to any mode of production - and on the other hand identifies the problematic nature of Marx's investments in the value concept and the political imaginaries that might be able to confront them. Drawing upon 'Capital' and the 'Grundrisse', the author shows how these texts do not give rise to a single theory of value but rather are rich in multiple value-theoretic explorations that extend beyond capitalism.
