The Air Cure Town
Does air have value? In the first volume of Capital , Marx suggested it did not: “A thing can be a use-value, without having value,” he explained. “This is the case whenever its utility to man is not due to labour. Such are air, virgin soil, natural meadows, &c.” Because it has no value, understood by Marx in this context to mean labor value, air cannot be a commodity: “Commodities come into the world in the shape of use-values, articles, or good…

Discussions about the geological sustainability of the petroleum industry intensify when oil supplies tighten, …
