Resumo: Kevin Carson’s studies in Mutualist Political Economy (2004) is an impressive work. It first attempts to rehabilitate the classical labor theory of value (by giving it a subjectivist spin), and then traces the history of capitalism to show that it was founded by, and necessarily relies upon, State aggression. Carson finally ends by sketching his vision of a just world based on the principles of “mutualism” in which labor retains its product and every actor internalizes the full costs of his or her decisions. This article argues that his rebuttals to Böhm-Bawerk’s famous critique of the labor theory of value, as well as Carson’s attempted rehabilitation of the theory along subjectivist lines, utterly fail.

Primeiramente, tenta reabilitar a teoria clássica do valor-trabalgo (com um viés subjetivista), e então traça uma história do capitalismo para mostrar que foi fundado por (e necessariamente baseia-se em) agressão estatal. Carson finalmente conclui esboçndo sua visão de um mundo justo com base nos princípios do “mutualismo”, segundo os quais o trabalho retém seu produto e cada ator internaliza os custos totais de suas decisões. Este artigo argumenta que suas refutações à famosa crítica de Böhm-Bawerk da teoria do valor-trabalho, assim como a tentativa que Carson empreende de tentar reabilitar essa teoria em linhas subjetivistas, fracassa por completo.Instituto Mises Brasil2015-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistamises.org.br/misesjournal/article/view/78310.30800/mises.2015.v3.783MISES: Interdisciplinary Journal of Philosophy, Law and Economics; Vol. 3 No. 2 (2015); 455-467MISES: Interdisciplinary Journal of Philosophy, Law and Economics; Vol. 3 Núm. 2 (2015); 455-467MISES: Interdisciplinary Journal of Philosophy, Law and Economics; v. 3 n. 2 (2015); 455-4672594-91872318-0811reponame:Misesinstname:Instituto Mises Brasilinstacron:IMBporhttps://revistamises.org.br/misesjournal/article/view/783/467Murphy, Robert P.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2019-06-08T02:31:31Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/783Revistahttps://revistamises.org.br/misesjournalPRIhttps://revistamises.org.br/misesjournal/oairevista@mises.org.br2594-91872318-0811opendoar:2019-06-08T02:31:31Mises - Instituto Mises Brasilfalse
