In the English translation of Capital, Marx refers to *social* capital. Cf. volume 2, section 3 of Capital. This doesn't mean that society as a whole owns capital. That would be a contradiction in terms. All it means is aggregate or total or global. I tried not to use surplus *value*, because a part of that social surplus labor time does not necessarily take the value form -- e.g. in the case of central banking.
