Resumo
This paper assesses the performance of the functions of money and the implications of the withdrawal of money (= gold) from ist functions in the sphere of circulation, and its complete replacement by credit money in advanced capitalism. In spite of being a most relevant category in Marx's theory of money in capitalism, credit money and the implications of its dominance have very unfrequently been the object of specific analises by Marxist authors. The analysis presented in this paper is based on the assumption that money has to be a commodity according to Marx's theory, and endeavours to demonstrate that this assumption is not in contradiction with the fact that the money-commodity, i.e. gold, does no more perform any circulation functions. An additional assumption is that the possibility of the replacement of purely abstract forms of money for the commodity-money, in the realms of Marx's theory, has not been theoretically demonstrated so far.
