This is a "newly written" small dictionary by Jiro Okazaki, an economist who accomplished the monumental task of a complete personal translation of Marx's *Das Kapital*. This book was published by Shakai Shiso Sha (Gendai Kyoiku Bunko) in 1983 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Marx's death, and is a **"definitive edition."** ■ Features of this book Consistent System: Unlike many dictionaries that are co-authored, Mr. Okazaki insisted on "writing it all himself," so there is no inconsistency in the interpretation of terms, making it the most reliable for learning. Rarity due to being out of print: It is currently out of print because the publisher, Shakai Shiso Sha, has been dissolved. It has become a hard-to-find collector's item. ■ Condition of the product First edition with obi: This is a valuable first edition published in 1981. The original blue obi from that time is still intact. No writing: All pages have been checked. There are no underlines or writing. Age-related changes: As this is an old book from 45 years ago, there is natural yellowing (browning) on the paper. Please check the photos. Thank you for viewing.
