You may be forgetting here the *political* use Tugan-Baranowsky did of
the schemas in order to argue that capitalism would be a self replicating
entity, founding a tradition which started to crop up with Bortkiewicz
and reached its peak with Okishio, Morishima et al. and still is healthy
and alive with us.


A point I think would deserve more clarification and research is the
Lenin-Tugan theoretical relationship. For example, how many people have
read the 1st edition of Tugan's book on England Crises and compare it
with Lenin early works? And, in particular, how far was actually Lenin
from Tugan? Where are Lenin's critiques to the neo-physiocratic theory of
value Tugan presents in the 2nd edition of his book on England Crises,
and in Theoretische Grundlagen des Marxismus? I have no response to these
questions but I do have some reserves about "Lenin amazing capacity to
take Marx and apply the  critical ideas provided by him."
