Abstract
In the opening pages of The Limits to Capital , published in 1984, David Harvey jokes that everyone who reads Marx’s Capital seems bound to write a book about it. In 2012, we might well ask: Just one? Last year, many of the long-standing academic Marxists unleashed new introductory works, including Terry Eagleton, David Harvey, Eric Hobsbawm, and, unsurprisingly, Fredric Jameson. In Representing Capital , Jameson has written the best of the bunch: a surprising, energetic, and concise representation of the “totality” of capital.
