Abstract

This research longs to grasp some elements in the work of Karl Marx to clarify pertinent issues to study the immaterial labor in capitalism. In addition to isolated entries about this kind of work, in Marx's theory, we saw categories and concepts that bases an analysis of immaterial labor, such as productive and unproductive labor, the expanded notion of industry, the work sold as a service, the turnaround time of capital etc. The object of this work is not all the author's work, but the contributions outlined in Capital and in Chapter VI Unpublished. The connections between these categories establish an important understanding about the immateriality of the work. This means that Marx's theory explains the changes of contemporary capitalism (AU)
