Guide to Marxist Economics - Ep. 11 Capitalist Mechanization & Limits of Machine Use 

hey, long time ago i saw your video about correlation cost with labourtime. You provided there interesting graphs and you ephasized exception of that correlation in petroleum industry. Could you please share link to the video?

Make a video about the winter war!!

Finnish bolshevik, would appreciate it if you could make a video about jazz music in the USSR, especially from 1948 to 1953, I am confused since I was first notified that the mere mention of the word jazz was de facto forbidden in that period as well as instruments like the saxophone, then I learn that there never was any official ban on jazz in the USSR even from 1948 to 1953 and now I hear that actually the Tallin Jazz Festival was started in 1949 and has been going on yearly ever since, i.e. also from 1949 to 1953, with performances even in that time by the band "Swing Club Quintet" and that there were other jazz bands in the Baltic who all played the saxophone in that period, as well as Artemy Ayvazyan in Armenia about whom wikipedia says his jazz orchestra was "the only one that survived during the stalinist repressions of the 1940s" - I am confused since I know until 1948 jazz was promoted as the music of oppressed Blacks in the US, and also, Stalin reportedly liked the music, rejoicing at Eddy Rosner's jazz orcherstra's performance in Sochi in 1941, so given this, and all of the confusing data above, I am somewhat suspicious of the notion that all of a sudden Stalin became jazzophobic in 1948 supposedly because it's Western music and the Cold War had just started, especially given that it's not the music of the capitalist bourgeoisie, but of African Americans

There is a playlist in the video description. But it also includes other videos on basics of ML. Do you mean it should only have the economics vids? ru-vid.com/group/PLbnLysSug0vR4-29AGfaHOYJLnSt3ihF2

I think it should have it's own playlist too

I second that

Thanks❤❤ searching the channel now

Ahhh! Someone mentioned ICL/TWoH!! Heh, sorry, it's still just cool to me when I see that kinda stuff. I saw this from my personal channel and was like "Ahhh!!!" (In a good way, haha.) Thanks for that! There are 11 parts up so far, for anyone that's interested. Edit: There's a playlist for The Wind of History (Stalin bio). And just so people know, I started the series with an inferior mic, but I upgraded to a decent external one partway through, so the audio quality does get better (I don't think it's *too* bad in the beginning, though).

@@itscalledleninism Waiting for biographies of Marx, Engels, and Lenin once you finish up the stalin series! Keep up the work

@@JohnNguyen. Haha, oh, boy; I don't know about that!! Heh, but thank you!!

@@itscalledleninism Don't worry, u can take ur time or if you don't feel like doing it, then it's fine by me!

@ChucklesMcGurk any, anything but capitalism

This series is so far based on the book "Political economy" (link in the description). It also talks about imperialism later, but for now I've only discussed pre-monopoly capitalism.

I used clips from "The general line" directed by Eisenstein and "The youth of Maxim" directed by Kozintsev and Trauberg.

@@thefinnishbolshevik2404 Spasiba bolshoi to you and moran tanj to me. I don't know "thank you" in Finnish.

What about them?

@@thefinnishbolshevik2404 How do they fit into the picture? Are they also considered an intensification of the exploitation of lablour? As there is no labour of workers involved? Is their output considered valuable in the sense of the labour theory of value? Or not? Because if they are fully automated they can produce goods with no neccessary labour being involved. What value does marxist theory assign to their output? What value does it assign if the entire priduction chain is automated?

​@@thefinnishbolshevik2404How does fully automated production fit into this system?

can you give an example where a factory is fully automated ? so that it doesn't even require maintenance or initial impulse of turning on the machines ? also during the video this is addressed in the part where the capitalist in not overexploited countries promotes automatization as the cost of labour became unprofitable for the capitalist@@Ein_Kunde_

@@CANNNIBALIX I have no 100% example at the moment. But technology is leading to robots that can do maintenance on other machines. Solar-farms would probably be quite close. Also I think chip-production is mostly automated.

Das Kapital Volume 1

Its linked in the video description: POLITICAL ECONOMY - A Textbook issued by the Economics Institute of the Academy of Sciences of the U.S.S.R. www.marxists.org/subject/economy/authors/pe/

Sry for that comment is not the topic of this video I was just asking for your opinion. :)

And I forgot 11. NAFO (North Atlantic Fellas Organization)

He talks about it in his early videos
