This is an original translation not only of the main body of the work but also of a number of quotations from foreign authors. Page references thus usually indicate the original foreign sources.
In so far as possible, however, I have availed myself of existing translations and have referred to the following standard works:
Karl Marx: Capital , vol. i (transl. by Moore-Aveling, London, 1920); vol. ii (transl. by E. Untermann, Chicago, 1907); vol. iii (transl. by E. Untermann, Chicago, 1909)
The Poverty of Philosophy (translator’s name not given, London, 1936).
Sismondi’s introduction to the second edition of Nouveaux Principes is quoted from M. Mignet’s translation of selected passages by Sismondi, entitled Political Economy and the Philosophy of Government , London, 1847. No English translation exists of Marx’s Theorien über den Mehrwert .
