Over the decades, David Harvey has won the acclaim of students and academics for his teaching of Marx’s work. Now in The Story of Capital his work becomes accessible to the general reader.
David Harvey, one of the leading Marxist thinkers of our times, sits down with the activist collective AK Malabocas to discuss the transformations in the mode of capital accumulation, the centrality of the urban terrain in contemporary class struggles, and the implications of all this for anti-capitalist organizing.

Many of the contradictions are manageable, but some in combination also contain the seeds of systemic catastrophe.
