Abstract:
This work aims to explain and discuss the main categorical elements that integrate the Marxian analysis of the productive activity in O Capital, intending to analyze the character of the immanent contradiction to the work process carried out as a process of valorization. For this purpose, the completeness of Chapter 5 - The work process and the valuation process will be taken for examination, seeking to delineate how the internal connections of the creation of the valued value as a historically determined social form of production of human life. The internal tension of the production of use-values as bearers of the value / plus-value, existing as a commodity should be clarified in its own structure, bearing in mind even the implications of this for the other dimensions of social interactivity. The present categorical reflection also aims to clarify the fundamental lines of the way of producing and being of the social life of the individuals who participate in the process, subsumed in their different functions. This work explains the results of a research project - Workforce, Capital and Individuality - which is linked to the Post-Graduate Program in Education at UFMG.
