PHIL 31003. KARL MARX CAPITAL This class consists in a philosophical reading of Marxs classic work Capital: A Critique of Political Economy. Our principle aim will be to try to understand Marxs text on its own terms, and mainly as a philosophical work about political economy. We will also try to understand its relevance for today, and of course assess it critically as a piece of philosophical thinking. This course does not presuppose any previous classes in politics or economics. Prerequisite: A minimum of two Philosophy courses or consent of the instructor. [AH]
