Resumo

This paper was presented orally at the 11th International Critical Theory Conference in Rome, held in May 2018. Just two months after the passing of theorist Moishe Postone, I decided to change the theme of my presentation, which would deal with Marx and the category of mode of production, and pay this tribute to Postone's theory.
