Take the Law of Value Quiz
Many people -- supporters and opponents of Marx -- think that they already know all
there is to know about Marx's theory of value.
Let's take a brief quiz to find out how much you know.
Here are 10 TRUE or FALSE questions.
Take out a paper and pencil and keep track of your answers.
I'll give the answers at the end.
1) Marxist theory of value holds that any human labor creates value.
2) For Marx value and price are the same thing.
3) Marx's theory of value is the same as his predecessor David Ricardo.
4) Marx didn't believe the forces of supply and demand were relevant to explaining value.
5) Marx's theory of value is a theory of what workers should get paid.
6) Marx's theory of value was a theory about how communist society should be run.
7) Marx did not think consumer demand played a role in prices, value or other economic phenomena.
8) Marx's theory of value doesn't work in free markets.
9) Marx's theory of value can't explain why useless things like "mud pies" don't have value.
10) Marx hated babies.
The answer to all of these questions is:
FALSE
If you answered TRUE to any of them then perhaps you do not know enough about
Marx's theory of value to actually make an informed judgment about it.
If you areinterested in understanding one of the most important theoretical critics
of capitalism ever created, then perhaps this video series might be a good starting point.
If you already know that you are going to hate Marx's analysis
then perhaps watching this video series would be a good starting point in educating yourself.
So that you do not sound like a total idiot when you go mouthing off all over the Internet
