Abstract:
This essay proposes a quantitative analysis of the superexploitation of the labor force, especially through mechanisms that link the intensification of the exploitation of the labor force to structural transfers of value from the periphery to the center. Our purpose is to outline brief methodological notes that contribute to the incipient efforts of quantitative analysis of superexploitation, moving forward in relation to them, especially based on a recognition of the limits of these efforts.
