The logic of ‘Capital’, the Systematic Dialectic School and a defence of the 
logical-historical method
By William Jefferies
In the past three decades, the Systematic Dialectic School has challenged the 
traditional logical-historical description of Karl Marx’s method. Inspired by 
the Standard Critique (SC)1 of Marx’s Transformation Procedure (TP), they 
insist Marx’s Capital can best be understood as mirroring Hegel’s Logic, in 
both its form and content.
Andy Blunden is a Marxist philosopher perhaps best known for his work curating 
Marxists.org. This article takes Blunden’s books, The ‘Capital’/‘Logic’ Debate 
and Marx's Capital – Hegelian Sources, as a jumping off point for a 
re-examination of the relationship of Hegel’s Logic to Marx’s Capital in 
general, and of the Systematic Dialect school in particular. The background of 
the TP debate haunts Blunden’s books but is not directly addressed by them; 
they are included here, nonetheless, as they are directly relevant to the 
claimed Hegelian and Marxist foundations of the Systematic Dialectic School.
