Long prone to dogmatic disagreement, the question of value in Marx's thought—what value is, the purpose it serves, its application to real-world capitalism—requires renewal if Marx's work is to remain vibrant. In Value in Marx, George Henderson offers a lucid rereading of Marx that strips value of its turgid theoretical reduction and reframes it as an investigation into the tensions between social relations and forms as they are rather than as what they could otherwise become.
