What to read? for Friday 2/2/07

This Friday we continue reading in Fischer's The Essential Marx, moving on to chapter 5, "The Classes and the Class Struggle" and Chapter 6, "Historical Materialism." (Please do not be thrown off by the Course Calendar. I made a mistake numbering chapters and forgot to include the real chapter 5, "Classes and the Class Struggle." Sorry!)

My hope is that next week we can do the following:

Monday
chapter 7: "Value and Surplus Value"
chapter 8: "Profit and Capital"

Wednesday
chapter 9: "The Problem of Increasing Misery"
chapter 10: "The Theory of Revolution"

Friday
Chapter 11: "Dictatorship of the Proletariat, Socialism, Communism"
Chapter 12: "Labor Movement and International"
Chapter 13: "The Philosophy of Practice."
