Yet, not all of these debates originated with Tugan. Bohm-Bawerk's writing on the 'contradiction' and 'the error' in Marx's system (i.e. the so-called 'transformation problem') began in 1896 with the publication of the essay "Zum Abschluss des Marxschen Systems". This pre-dated by some years -- did it not? -- the publication of Tugan's _Theoretische Grundlagen des Marxismus_. Did Tugan write on the 'TP' before 1896? > I'll copy below what I wrote re T-B in the Preface of my translation of > two chapters of the "Studies on the Theory and the History of Business > Crises in England", which appeared in the Research in Political Economy > 18, 2000. Perhaps one reason for why his _Studien zur Theorie und Geschichte der Handelskrisen in England_ was not fully translated into English was because the actual theoretical part of the book is rather small (this also might be a reason why Fritz Sternberg's _Der Imperialismus_ hasn't been translated ). It might also be part of the reason for why you translated just two chapters? This, of course, can not be seen as a reason for not translating the shorter and more densely argued _Theoretische Grundlagen des Marxismus_ . In solidarity, Jerry
