But Marx regarded Sieber as an ally with respect to Capital, not as an aberrant 'Marxist' philosopher of history. In this connection, Sieber's lucid insight into Marx's most basic categories - value, labor, value-magnitude, the value-forms, and money - proved particularly noteworthy.

The scholar Skvortsov was also lastingly affected by Sieber, and, in turn, influenced not only the activist Fedoseyev (Offord, 1986, p. 146) but also the leading "Legal Marxist" of the 1890s, Struve (Pipes, 1970, pp. 61-63). 8 Many of the other major "Legal Marxists" of the 1890s - including Bulgakov and, less obviously, Frank - also echoed themes from Sieber's writings (Evtuhov, 1997, pp. ; Williams, 1999, pp. 4-5; Evtuhov, 2000, p. 4; Boll, 1970, pp. 17, 36).

Most of Marx's early Russian readers turned to Capital "to expose the miserable plight of the proletarianized peasant in the West in order to help save the peasant in Russia from a similar plight" (Resis, 1970, p.
