Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
This article criticises economic approaches to Capital which attempt to deWne the logic of capital in abstraction of concrete historical developments. By neglecting subjectivity and agency in their arguments, it is argued, these approaches are conWned to a formal understanding which can never be reconciled with historical developments. To escape this problem, the article turns to Hegel's dialectic in order to overcome the subject/object dualism implied in economic approaches. It Wnally examines the opening chapter on value and fetishism in Capital in order to show how Capital displays this Hegelian historicist sensitivity.
