- Title
Book review: Accounting for Value in Marx's Capital: The Invisible Hand.
- Authors
Toms, Steven
- Abstract
In I Accounting for Value i , Rob Bryer aims to show how Marx uses his theory of value to explain capitalist accounting. Ever controversial, Bryer's narrative device is to enlist Marx directly in support of accounting-based interpretations of the radical political economy literature. Even so, it is clear to this reader at least that reinventing Marx in this fashion is not necessary to the success of the wider project, which is Bryer's use of accounting to reinterpret some of the big questions of classical political economy.
