Lorenzo Fusaro is associate professor of political economy at the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana.Leinad Johan Alcalá Sandoval is lecturer at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México.

Fusaro and Alcalá Sandoval, along with a number of outstanding heterodox scholars, rescue one of the central aspects of Marx's work: the general law of capitalist accumulation. Their book masterly and coherently combines the theoretical study and relevant empirical analysis, thus revealing the explanatory potential of a historical materialist approach. Faced with the primacy of subjectivism in neoclassical or Keynesian versions of orthodox economics— which leads to the consideration of underdevelopment as a transitory anomaly and blames human psychology for the so-called market failures—this book vindicates why the analysis must start from the inner logic of capital, impersonal and objective, which irreversibly opposes capital to labor and is materialized in geographically uneven development. This book is absolutely recommended reading.
