This book philosophically reconstructs Marx’s Capital from the perspective of reproduction to produce an original reflection on the prospects for human life and nature’s survival within capitalism.
Environmental degradation, crises in care and the predations of finance capital impose new challenges to human reproduction. It is imperative to understand their roots in capitalism. But how best to do so? This book develops the concept of ‘immanent externalities’ to grasp the non-capitalist life processes produced by – and necessary for – capitalist reproduction. Immanent Externalities thus considers the category of reproduction by means of a philosophical re-reading of the three volumes of Marx’s Capital. In doing so, the book locates capitalism’s fundamental contradiction as that between the reproduction of profit-driven activity and ecologically situated human life, suggesting new orientations for theory and practice today.

Rebecca Carson, Ph.D. (2022), Kingston University, is a Tutor at the Royal College of Art. She has published widely on Marx and reproduction, including the articles "Fictitious Capital and the Re-emergence of Personal Forms of Domination" (Continental Thought and Theory, 2017) and "Non-capitalist Domination, Rentierism and the Politics of Class" (Crisis and Critique, 2023).
