Marx, Capital and the Madness of Economic Reason

On the long road from Marx's Capital, which has passed 150 years since its publication, to capital, which constitutes the core of capitalism that still cannot be overthrown, David Harvey resorts to a metaphor while analyzing the operating logic of capital: he matches it with the water cycle in nature. Thus, it makes tangible and visible the capital, which has penetrated into the smallest detail of daily life, but whose existence remains unnoticed due to terrible alienation.

The logic behind the economic system, of which the capital in constant circulation is the core, points to a state of insanity: Living in cities whose population is increasing exponentially only to work, trying to reach places with vehicles filled with flocks, not being able to shelter in humane conditions in all this abundance of buildings; To be constantly exploited in this dizzying circulation, to be deprived of the means and opportunities for self-realization...

On the 100th anniversary of the October Revolution, which destroyed this insane order based on capital, our duty is to deepen our understanding of the world we live in and take action.
