Dussel shows that Marx unveils the theology of capitalism in his critique of commodity fetishization. Capitalism constitutes an idolatry of the commodity that undergirds the capitalist expropriation of labor. Dussel examines Marx's early writings on religion and fetishism and proceeds through what Dussel refers to as the four major drafts of \u003ci\u003eCapital\u003c\/i\u003e, ultimately situating Marx's philosophical, economic, ethical, and historical insights in relation to the theological problems of his time. Dussel notes a shift in Marx's underlying theological schema from a political critique of the state to an economic critique of the commodity fetish as the Devil, or anti-God, of modernity. Marx's thought, impact, and influence cannot be fully understood without Dussel's historic reinterpretation of the theological origins and implications of Marx's critiques of political economy and politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnrique Dussel (1934-2023) was Emeritus Professor, Universidad Autonoma Metropolitana-Iztapalapa, and the author of many books, including \u003ci\u003eTwenty Theses on Politics\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eEthics of Liberation: In the Age of Globalization and Exclusion\u003c\/i\u003e, both also published by Duke University Press. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Camilo Pérez-Bustillo is coauthor of \u003ci\u003eHuman Rights, Hegemony, and Utopia in Latin America\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Eduardo Mendieta is Professor of Philosophy and Latina\/o Studies at Pennsylvania State University.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.64 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 03, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52724915765555,"sku":"9781478025771","price":52.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/RfPiunOWkP9781478025771.webp?v=1763693781","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/the-theological-metaphors-of-marx-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
