According to George Lichtheim, the \"doctrine that emerged went something like this: what people really needed were use values, whereas they were actually being offered exchanges values by the market. These represented thesis and antithesis; Proudhon looked for a synthesis which he termed 'constituted value.' This amounted to saying that goods should be exchanged in proportion to the amount of labour embodied in them - an arrangement that would do away with market fluctuations and at the same time satisfy the requirement of justice.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Pierre-Joseph Proudhon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1542320194\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781542320191\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/03\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.44d","brand":"Pierre-Joseph Proudhon","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43984993517823,"sku":"9781542320191","price":11.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_71a8fe56-93d2-4c3a-92e8-41dd2d560f94.jpg?v=1683275104","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/system-of-economical-contradictions-pierre-joseph-proudhon-9781542320191","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
