The Origins of Capitalism is a central area of intellectual concern within Marxism. The discussion (often referred to as the Transition Debate) extends back to the 19th Century, and spans a number of disciplines and theoretical perspectives (in some cases discussed as a transition to ‘industrial’ or ‘market’ society).

Nonetheless, the material organised in the links below outlines the first coherent dialogues on this topic, as well as important additional sources that have deepened the discussion since. The different reading lists are enumerated in chronological order.
