Yes, and it's also useful because of his unambiguous claim about the importance attached to use-value in Marx's own theory of value. > It was helpful to me to have an some idea of the organization of Wagner's > text, since Marx's comments refer first to the opening chapter of Wagner's > book and then jump to a later chapter on value, which Wagner introduces > with some comments on Capital. The MIA has quite a large collection of writings by economists and philosophers who are _not_ Marxist. If there aren't copyright problems and if someone has the energy to transcribe it, perhaps it would be useful to put Wagner's book online. Indeed, if that was done then the MNW for the first time (?) could be published _as marginal notes_. In solidarity, Jerry
