The book explores the 2008 financial crisis, likening it to the Great Depression and highlighting its unexpected nature, even for experts. It critiques mainstream economics for failing to foresee the collapse and emphasizes the necessity of state intervention. Drawing on Karl Marx's theories, it argues that the crisis stems from the inherent fetishism of commodities within capitalism. The narrative connects Marx's analysis of commodities to the contemporary capitalist crisis, offering a compelling examination of economic theory and historical events.

Professor Weeks proposes that the key to Marx's critique of capitalist society is the labor theory of value. A commodity-producing society, he argues, necessarily gives rise to a capitalist society, so that commodity production and the exploitation of labor are inseparably linked.Originally published in 1982.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
