Compiling a reading list for 'philosophy of capital' what would you put on it? (For example: Kapital v1-3, Capitalism & Schizophrenia, Libidinal Economy etc.)
Most definitely. By philosophy of capital I meant texts dealing directly with capital in some form and not necessarily pro-capitalist texts (not that I have a problem with that). You mention Hayek etc. - definitely of interest - but are primarily economists and not philosophers.

True, there is a difference between people writing for and against... the third way was and is always for capitalism.
-
Third way? For and against capitalism are both still linked to capital though. In the same way that a non-ethics is linked to morality, that's its pole.
-
so its a question of ideologies and discourses then? A critique of capital cannot be a pure critique only a partial one ?
-
Discourses, philosophy and theory relating to capital. A critique of capital is more than likely going to be partial yes.
-
the 'of' in your original statement surely makes a partial critique inevitable ? as a pure critique, Marx's work for example requires negation...
-
I meant it like Philosophy of Mind, Philosophy of Science Philosophy of History - of Education - of Language - of Religion. Philosophy pertaining to the subject I mentioned. Books, wherein the words within are related to the study of capital.
-
I wasn’t sure whether you meant capital or capitalism (as in mode of production), seems clearer now
-
Since its capital then, i think that Georges Dumezil... is critical
