It is intended, from a critical analysis of Benjain Coriat and RuyFausto, to clarify how the historical emergency of taylorism-fordism has madedifficult the understanding and relevance of Marx’s analysis of the productiveforces throughout the 20th century. It is asserted that taylorism-fordism doesnot apply to Marx’s definition of machinery because it actually consists of a“reinvention of manufacture”, and that the lack of observation of this fact wouldhave occasioned the difficulties observed in the quoted authors. These difficulties the Grundrisse and The Capital, or only The Capital, in order to fully understandthe nature of the productive forces in the present and the future – a suggestionthat is intended to be criticized.
