Das Kapital (Marx)

"Das Kapital" by Karl Marx is a detailed analysis of how capitalism functions. It examines how goods are produced and exchanged, revealing that wealth is generated through labor but often results in profits that benefit the owners—capitalists—at the expense of workers. Marx critiques this system, highlighting exploitation and class struggles. He explains that the value of a product comes from labor, but capitalists tend to keep more of that value, leading to economic inequality. Ultimately, Marx advocates for a society where production is more equitable, aiming to address the injustices he sees rooted in capitalism.
