RESUMEN This chapter introduces Juan Iñigo Carrera’s take on the NIDL. In it, Iñigo Carrera proceeds from a particular point of departure, that is, from the global process of accumulation in its organic unity, and within which distinct national processes of accumulation emerge as specific concrete forms of that same global process. He argues that … Leer más

RESUMEN La especificidad social de las mercancías, su forma de valor, tiene como su determinación más simple el que el trabajo abstracto materializado en ellas es representado como la capacidad de éstas para relacionarse entre sí en el cambio, y con ello relacionar a sus productores.

It is argued that this approach fails to provide an actual explanation of the phenomenon it sets about to investigate. Instead, it offers a typological description of the immediate manifestations of the determinations at stake. As a consequence, the GCC approach … Leer más
