[79] Despain: Hello 508, My name is
Hans Despain, I am the TA of this class. More than being the
TA, I wish to participate in reading the Text and in the
discussions on line. I am a graduate student focusing my
studies in Political Economy and History of Economic Thought.
I am most interested in the dynamic structuring of our social
formations and how we are able to understand these
structures. Moreover, it seems to me that Marx as an
economist has been quite successful in capturing the dynamics
of the capitalist societies of his and our eras. Hence,
reading and re-reading Marx always proves very enlightening
to me. For me it is not only his theory but the structure of
his theory that is un-orthodox and progressive, and I hope to
obtain a better grasp of his method of understanding social
dynamics.
I will also be available to help with students' questions and
your answers to Professor Ehrbar. Anyone that has any
questions which they would like specifically directed to me
(not to the class as a whole), can send me an email at
despain@econ.sbs.utah.edu or despain@econ.utah.edu. Capital
is a very difficult text that requires help from others to
begin to understand what exactly Marx was up to, so please
feel free to ask any questions that may arise; I check my
email every day, so any questions directed toward me should
usually be answered rather quickly.
I look forward to our reading and discussions,
Thanks Hans Despain.
