Preferred term

circuits of capital  

Definition

  • Developed by Karl Marx in the second volume of Capital, the “circuits of capital” approach represents a multifaceted way to understand the cyclical and self-expanding process of capitalist value circulation. Since each circuit is envisioned as a particular moment within a larger process, economic geographers have found it useful in situating local geographies in a wider context.
