Further Information
AN OLD MYTH: THE TRANSFORMATION OF VALUES INTO PRICES IN MARX'S CAPITAL
is edited by Luciano Vasapollo(Univ. Roma "La Sapienza", Lab. Social Critique)
with essays by G. Carchedi, A. Freeman, P. Giussani, A. Kliman, A. Ramos
The Conference is organized in such a way that the authors, together with the scholars and
the politicians invited, will provide an answer to the following questions:
1. Has Marx's transformation procedure been proven inconsistent?
2. Is Bortkiewictz's interpretation of Marx's value theory Marx's own theory?
3. Is it true that simultaneous valuation leads necessarily to an interpretation of
exploitation purely in physical terms? If this is true, is this valuation compatible with
Marx's theory of exploitation in terms of surplus labour?
4. Has Marx's theory of the tendential fall in the profit rate been disproved?
