Abstract

The production of goods and services is imperative to all human societies. In this chapter we begin by introducing a few related economic categories, some of which belong specifically to economies based on market exchange. We then consider the process by which societies with a social division of labor reproduce themselves economically. This leads to the concept of labor content, a measurable quantity that will form the basis of our analysis of how capitalism is powered by labor.
