We are now taking orders for the books listed below.  These books were published by Marxists Internet Publications and all proceeds benefit the MIA, ensuring our continued operation and enhancement.

all three book coversClassics in Activity Theory, reprints of English translations first published by Progress Publishers in the 1970s, of the second generation of Soviet followers of Lev Vygotsky. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, while remaining in the public domain, these works have become unavailable, in most cases even on the second hand market. And yet there is vast research community across the world which builds on Vygotsky and Activity theory, particularly in education departments.

Each of the three books beginning the series is a collection of the English translations from one of the three authors: Alexei Leontyev's The Development of Mind, Alexander Meshcheryakov's Awakening To Life and Evald Ilyenkov's The Ideal in Human Activity, plus a short preface by Prof. Mike Cole of the University of California, San Diego.

9 August, 2009: Added to the Samezō Kuruma Archive:

Theory of the Value-form & Theory of the Exchange Process, A complete English translation of a 1957 book by Kuruma that examines in detail Marx’s theory of the value-form, and its relation to his theory of the exchange process. The impetus to write the book was Kuruma’s encounter with Kōzō Uno’s criticism of Marx’s theory of the value-form in Capital. Kuruma responds to this criticism in Part 2 of the book, exposing how Uno’s critique of Marx is founded upon an inability to grasp the theoretical task that Marx sets out to accomplish in his theory of the value-form (in Section 1 of Chapter 1).
