Brendan Cooney: Marxian Economics and Philosophy

Video: Capitalist Equilibrium?

Part 2

For quite some time I have been following the clear and rich explanations of Marxian concepts and ideas by Brendan Cooney. He is well versed in classical economics and Marxian value theory and very adapt in communicating these in such a way that most people can understand it. On top of that, he takes his time every few weeks to make a professional and engaging video using his own scripts to deal with another major perspective or concept using classic cartoons. The scripts and more can be found at http://kapitalism101.wordpress.com/. Brendan describes his motivation for making his video's in these words:

"In times of crisis the law of value asserts itself with violence. My videos deal with the nature of value in a capitalist society, how this value is expressed, and what contradictions grow from it."

I seriously recommend anyone who seeks a more profound understanding of the present economic systems to check out the resource Brendan is building up.
