https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=playlist

From Yale professional­fes­sor Paul North comes a chap­ter-by-chap­ter examine of Karl Marx’s Cap­i­tal: Cri­tique of Polit­i­cal Econ­o­my, Vol­ume 1. Accord­ing to the descrip­tion that accom­pa­nies the course on YouTube, this “e book from 1872 remains to be the perfect information to the preda­to­ry eco­nom­ic and social sys­tem with­through which we stay. The e book solves 5 primary mys­ter­ies in our social world. The mys­ter­ies are: why social class­es strug­gle towards one anoth­er, why human beings are within the thrall of issues, how a quan­ti­ty of mon­ey turns into extra mon­ey with­out appear­ing so as to add any­factor, why some peo­ple are compelled to work and the extra they work the much less they make professional­por­tion­al to their effort, and remaining­ly, and why it’s so laborious to trans­kind the sys­tem for the wager­ter.” You possibly can watch the 19 lec­tures from the course in the playlist above.

Prof. North is the co-edi­tor of the brand new Eng­lish trans­la­tion and crit­i­cal edi­tion of Cap­i­tal Vol­ume 1, and it’s the textual content used within the course.
