Chapter 5: Disproportionality
Disproportionality was a popular crisis theory among Marxists of the Second International era that preceded World War I — from Engels’ death in 1895 to 1914. It is less popular among Marxists today, at least judging from the Internet, where the seemingly incompatible “not enough” surplus value or “too much” surplus value/underconsumptionist theories are fighting it out.
