I developed this little by little, remembering that all economic theories, like Marx\u0026rsquo;s, start with developing a new theory of value. I told myself I should do for our times what Marx had done for his. That was \u0026lsquo;tongue-in-cheek\u0026rsquo;. And above all, Fourier had done it already.
