Abstract
The theory of value aims to explain the way prices function as a coordination mechanism of market societies. A coherent approach to the theory of value must be monetary and, in addition, it must analyze the dynamics of the economy in a disaggregated manner, considering the interdependent relations between the different individual economic activities. Here, we review the main monetary models of theories of value, both neoclassical and classical-Marxian. We analyze their scope and limits and conclude by highlighting a dilemma they face between their results’ generality and specificity.
