its a topic i nominally understand but is honestly high fantasy to me whenever i try to understand it deeper and i think i need to read like a whole thing specifically dedicated to the concept to really for once wrap my head around it. ive seen a lot of debate on things like wages, super-exploitation, and currency differences that id really like to be able to settle in my head. thank you!

      I recommend this, read it a few months ago. It's very readable, pretty short (like a hundred pages or so) and has a list of further reading at the back. It's not The Theory™, it's just, well, an introduction and overview of what the theory entails

    I liked Zak Cope's book 'Divided World, Divided Class' it was much more comprehensible to me. He writes in a more colloquial way than Amin. It's a great book if you're not doing intensive study.
