Reviews
It is [Western Marxism] that commands the full attention of Massimilliano Tomba's timely and often brilliantly suggestive and informed reading of how Marxism lost its way and failed to account for the changes that Marx introduced in the 1860s and 1870s, producing Capital as a massive conceptualization of capitalism's system of time accountancy that finds in the world market the instrument to synchronize the multiple temporalities and different forms of exploitation embodied in commodities, in order to secure greater surplus value.
