For Marxists, this fundamental flaw has long been acknowledged as a central feature of the free-market system. This groundbreaking volume brings together Marxist scholars from around the world to offer an empirically grounded defense of Marx's law of profitability and its central role in explaining capitalist crises.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eWorld in Crisis\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e has a specific aim: to provide empirical validity to the hypothesis that the cause of recurring economic crises or slumps in output, investment, and employment in modern economies can be found in Marx's law of the tendential fall in the rate of profit. Marx believed, and we agree, that this is 'the most important law in political economy.'\" --from the preface\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Haymarket Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781608461813\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 450\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 1.20d","brand":"Guglielmo Carchedi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41285414944949,"sku":"9781608461813","price":19.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_1b1c1b07-3a6e-4f70-812b-4620ef202b6b.jpg?v=1635224691","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/world-in-crisis-marxist-perspectives-on-crash-crisis-9781608461813","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
