Nice, thanks so much! Was a bit unsure because I’d seen some people criticising Havrey for minsunderstanding parts of Capital, but his lectures look super helpful. Guess the best thing to do is to get a couple of interpretations from multiple places like youve done. Keen to dive in!
I mean, you'll find criticism of everyone. No one knows what interpretation is "the correct one" and frankly, thinking like that doesn't seem very Marxist to me. I've seen someone on here call Harvey a radlib for pointing out the contradiction that if capitalism would fall today, that would mean the global supply chain would break down and millions would die of starvation. I find that kind of vampire castle attitude very distasteful. You can't tell me Harvey misunderstood. He gave this class every year since like 1970. You can argue about the way he sees things. Sure. I mean, I don't always agree with what he says, but that is all together a different story. So yeah, dive in! See if you jive with what he says. If not, that will also help make clear in your head what your own position is and why. It's win-win!
