The concrete way in which the process of the valorization of capital occurs in the periphery countries differs substantially from what happens in the core nations. Empirical studies aimed at taking account of these particularities should, in our view, comprise the cycle of capital in each country as a whole. In the present work, we make an estimate of the Marxist categories based on input-output tables for the United States and Argentina for the period 1997-2004. This estimate enables us to carry out a detailed comparison of all of the moments in the capital cycle of a core and a periphery economy, providing a methodologically consistent framework for empirical application of the analytical categories. The results obtained from comparing each category allow us to conclude that structural differences exist between the United States andArgentina at each moment of the cycle of the valorization of capital.

Palabras llave : Marxist categories; capital cycle; input-output tables; Argentina; United States.
