The analysis

The claim refers to a well-documented historical fact regarding the evolution of classical economic theory (e.g., Smith, Ricardo, and later Marx discussing value as grounded in labor). While paper [1] touches on the British classical approach to value theory, the claim itself is a standard historical classification that is trivially true by definition within the history of economics and requires no citation.
