Eric asked whether there is >any other work seeking to measure the extent/growth of >decommodification in other countries? (Alternatively, is >there any other work that measures the size/growth of the >"social wage" in countries outside the United States?) Here are the contents of the International Journal of Political Economy, vol 22, no 3 (Fall 1992) P Giussani Value of Labor Power and the Wage P Bartelheimer and H Wolf The Income of Wage Earners is Declining:On the Influence of State Activity on Total Wage Eaners' Income and Its Redistributive Effect Diego Guerrero Labor, Capital and State Redistribution:The Evolution of Net Taxes in Spain (1970-1987) G Carchedi On the Use of National Accounts in Value Analysis: Theoretical Issues and Conceptual Clarifications. I have been told by someone who really understands this sort of analysis that Guerrero's analysis is brilliant. By the way, I thought Shaikh and Tonak's essay on the social wage in *The Imperiled Economy* was one of the most illuminating pieces of economic analysis I have read. Did Bowles or Gintis ever write a reply? Rakesh Ethnic Studies
