This commentary aims at looking into more detail the controversy about the transformation of values into production prices, departing from the paper Valores-trabalho através de uma sucessão de redefinições: uma análise das novas soluções para o problema da transformação from Lucas and Serrano (2018). Against a direct critique towards Marxists new solutions from the 1980s, we argue that there is an alternative reading which may estimulate an approximation between positions that are today antagonistic.
