=== - Position. Keep Marx’s core intuition—that workers create a surplus appropriated by owners—but rebuild the theory using general equilibrium/game-theoretic concepts (property relations, feasible alternative allocations). This separates “exploitation” from the labor-theory-of-value and makes it comparable across systems.

* Examples. John Roemer’s A General Theory of Exploitation and Class; more recent formal work (e.g., Veneziani/Yoshihara; surveys and teaching notes) that retain the rate of exploitation as an empirical/analytical object.
