Can anyone point towards some empirical studies into the labour theory of value?

Here you go:

Diego Guerrero: Input-Output Values - A Spanish Perspective (http://www.revleft.com/vb/www.iwgvt.org/files/98fri1a-gue)

Cockshott, P., A. Cottrell and G. Michaelson: Testing Marx: some new results from UK data (http://www.cseweb.org.uk/pdfs/CC55/CC55_05_Cockshott.pdf) (I have seen that Paul Cockshott posts on here, so he will probably explain the issues in calulating all this to us)

Anwar Shaikh: The Empirical Strength of the Labour Theory of Value (http://homepage.newschool.edu/%7EAShaikh/labthvalue.pdf)

There are more, but these are the first I remembered from the top of my head.

It seems you juist have to remove the part at the start of the URL, where it says www.revleft.com and what not.
