Capital, Volume III Book by Karl Marx

Capital, Volume III, by Karl Marx, connects the theories from the previous two volumes to analyze the overall process of capitalist production, focusing on how value and surplus value manifest as concrete forms like profit, interest, and ground rent on the surface of society. Published posthumously by Friedrich Engels in 1894, the volume examines the inner workings and inherent contradictions of capitalism that Marx argued would inevitably lead to crises and its eventual collapse.
