Productive and Unproductive Labor in the Labor Theory of Value

Simon Mohun

Department of Economics, Queen Mary and Westfield College, Mile End Road, London El 4NS, S.Mohun{at}qmw.ac.uk

Using a particular understanding of the labor theory of value, this paper surveys the criticisms made of the Marxian distinction between productive and unproductive labor, and rejects them as misconceived. The distinction is then used to draw some consequences for how "the rate of exploitation" should be understood.
