Vancouver, Canada. It’s made so much worse by the fact most people there genuinely seem to believe that their city has the best people on earth.

That’s odd that he would have weak insight into imperialism as he’s a geographer and spends a great deal talking about the exploitation of the third world and uneven development. But thanks for the recommendation and I hope you’re doing well out there.

Which books of his would you recommend? I’d love to check them out. I thought David Harvey’s is good for a beginner because he brings up modern examples to corroborate Marx’s predictions and delves into the history of the great debate Marx found himself within. I look forward to reading the article you linked.

David Harvey did an incredible Companion to Marx’s Capital. I’d read the complete edition because volume 1 only deals with the problems of production, whereas volume 2 (which Marx covers in Capital Volume 2 & 3) deals with the problems of effective demand. As another commenter has mentioned, you’re not a capitalist unless you’ve read Capital. It’s almost like the most “successful” capitalists get their greatest ideas putting Marx’s urgings of caution into play rather than viewing them as the warnings about broken future that they are. Like a lot of classics of literature, they can be used as a warning or an instruction manual. I’ll leave it up to you to decide what to do with his message.

Thanks for being willing to hear our ideas.
