Abstract

The present paper aims to offer a sort of personal “reading path” of the dense text of the so-called Draft Chapter 6, in order to highlight some specific characteristics of its conceptual plot and some of its elements of great theoretical and political relevance. After having placed it briefly in the Marxian project of critique of political economy, we will proceed to the specific analysis of the contents of the Draft Chapter 6 of the first book of Capital: 1) Commodities as the product of capital; 2) Capitalist production as the production of surplus value; 3) Commodities as the production and reproduction of the whole capitalist relation.
