I am a little bit surprised about this. In which chapters in "Capital" can you find an analysis of the world market? You can find a lot of remarks relying to world market, and what Grossman gives are remarks of Marx that world market is important for an understanding of capital. But to state that something is important is not the same as to deliver an analysis of it. And if Marx gave such an analysis, why his repeated remarks, that the analysis of world market is excluded from the presentation in "Capital"? And do you really think, that an analysis of world market is possible without an analyisis of state? In his six book plan, Marx placed the book on state (with good reasons, I think) between the book on Capital and the books on Foreign Trade and on World Market. Or do you think that in "Capital" we not only can find an analysis of world market but also an analysis of state? In solidarity Michael
