Massimiliano Tomba is Professor of Philosophy of Human Rights at
the University of Padua. He has published many books, translations
and articles, including Crisis and Critique in Bruno Bauer (2002)
and La vera politica. Kant e Benjamin (2006).
It is [Western Marxism] that commands the full attention of
Massimilliano Tomba’s timely and often brilliantly suggestive and
informed reading of how Marxism lost its way and failed to account
for the changes that Marx introduced in the 1860s and 1870s,
producing Capital as a massive conceptualization of capitalism’s
system of time accountancy that finds in the world market the
instrument to synchronize the multiple temporalities and different
forms of exploitation embodied in commodities, in order to secure
greater surplus value.
