> ABSTRACT:
> Perhaps the most important contribution of CAPITAL is that that
> Marx employs systematically in CAPITAL the method of dialectic
> logic. In the viewpoint of modern sciences it is similarly a
> genetic method in economics. But due to historical limitations,
> the genetic structure of CAPITAL is not perfect, which leads to
> some unrealistic conclusions eventually. Nevertheless, just like
> the DNA structures in biology, the genetic structure of CAPITAL
> has the intrinsic force to replicate and repair itself towards a
> more vigorous and balanced structure that may harmonize with the
> principles of modern economics. The author makes an attempt in
> this paper to renovate the cell structure of CAPITAL by
> imitating Marx's method strictly. Contrary to the subjective
> prejudgment, the results are quite prospective.
>
> Keywords: Marxian Economics, Use Value, Genetic Imperfection,
> Dialectic Logic
============== Somebody who knows Philip Mirowski might want to send it to him for a laugh :-)
