Abstract
THE IMPORTANCE OF RESULTS OF THE DIRECT PRODUCTION
PROCESS FOR THE CONTEMPORARY READING OF MARX
The article presents the importance of Marx’s manuscripts know today
as Results of the Direct Production Process for the contemporary reading
of his critique of political economy. The “unpublished sixth chapter” of
Capital enables us to reconstruct Marx’s attempts to resolve two
problems that accompanied him during his work on political economy,
one being the relation between the process of capital’s circulation and
the process of capital’s production, and the other being the unity of the
labor process and the valorization process. The importance of Results
goes even further, allowing a reinterpretation of Capital that focuses on
the becoming of capital, the moment of labor’s subsumtion, application
of science to the production process and the establishment of the wage
relation. What the first volume of Capital presents as an accomplished
project, “the sixth chapter” presents as a process in becoming.
