MARTINEZ-GUTIERREZ, Moisés. Capitalist modernity and use-value in Bolívar Echeverría. Economía y Sociedad [online]. 2017, vol.22, n.51, pp.21-32.  Epub 12-Jun-2017. ISSN 2215-3403.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15359/eys.22-51.2.

The problematization of use-value is considered by Marx from its subordination to exchange-value, since the realization of economic value is the determinant for the capitalist mode of production. In this respect, Marx does not give a critique of the natural form of commodity. However, Echeverría returns to use-value as an important part of the critique of political economy and as a real and symbolic expression of a given society. From this approach, focus will not be on the object-commodity but on the subject, whose social code gives meaning to economic relationships. This paper is aimed at conceptually analyzing Echeverría’s theoretical argument beginning with Marx’ characterization of commodity.
