Haven't looked through all
Haven't looked through all this yet. I always thought it'd be useful having "Capital quizzes" and the likes to help establish an understanding of Marx's Capital, but I guess some of the "correct answers" could vary with different interpretations (could still ask basic questions like "what is relative and absolute surplus value?"). I think it's also an issue if you read stuff but never do anything with it, you'll just forget it, at least I will. Use it or lose it and all that, though if you do lose it, re-learning it shouldn't be as hard. I think it's important to apply what you read in some way, through discussions etc.
