Criticism of Earth thoroughly reassesses Marx and Engels's engagement with theology, analyzing their collected works for discussions of spiritual matters and the persistence of biblical allusions. What emerges is a continued interest that is maintained throughout their lives, from Marx's Critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right, until the very end with Engels's treatise on the revolutionary origins of early Christianity.</div>

Born to a prosperous mercantile family in west Germany, he spent his career working in the Manchester cotton industry, riding to the Cheshire hounds, and enjoying the comfortable, middle-class life of a Victorian gentleman. Yet Engels was also the co-founder of international communism - the philosophy which in the 20th century came to control one third of the human race. He was the co-author of The Communist Manifesto, a ruthless party tactician, and the man who sacrificed his best years so Karl Marx could write Das Kapital. Tristram Hunt relishes the diversity and exuberance of Engels's era: how one of the great bon viveurs of Victorian Britain reconciled his raucous personal life with this uncompromising political philosophy." </span></div>

<br />
From the<i> MIT Press</i>:<br />
<br />
"Kojin Karatani's Transcritique introduces a startlingly new dimension to Immanuel Kant's transcendental critique by using Kant to read Karl Marx and Marx to read Kant. In a direct challenge to standard academic approaches to both thinkers, Karatani's transcritical readings discover the ethical roots of socialism in Kant's Critique of Pure Reason and a Kantian critique of money in Marx's Capital.<br />
<br />
Karatani reads Kant as a philosopher who sought to wrest metaphysics from the discredited realm of theoretical dogma in order to restore it to its proper place in the sphere of ethics and praxis. With this as his own critical model, he then presents a reading of Marx that attempts to liberate Marxism from longstanding Marxist and socialist presuppositions in order to locate a solid theoretical basis for a positive activism capable of gradually superseding the trinity of Capital-Nation-State." </div>

From <i>Verso Books</i>:<br />
<br />
"The interpretation of Hegel has been a focal point of philosophical controversy ever since the beginning of the twentieth century, both among Marxists and in the major European philosophical schools. Yet despite wide differences of emphasis most interpretations of Hegel share important similarities. They link his idea of Reason to the revolutionary and rationalist tradition which led to the French Revolution, and they interpret his dialectic as implying a latently atheist and even materialist world outlook.<br />
<br />
Lucio Colletti directly challenges this picture of Hegel. He argues that Hegel was an essentially Christian philosopher, and that his dialectic was explicitly anti-materialist in both intention and effect. In contrast to earlier views, Colletti maintains that there is no contradiction between Hegel’s method and his system, once it is accepted that his thought is an exercise in Absolute Idealism stemming from a long Christian humanist tradition. He claims, on the contrary, that intellectual inconsistency is rather to be found in the works of Engels, Lenin, Lukás, Kojève and others, who have attempted to adapt Hegel to their own philosophical priorities.<br />
<br />
Colletti places his argument in the context of a broad re-examination of the whole relationship between Marxism and the Enlightenment, giving novel emphasis to the relationship between Marxism and Kant. He concludes by re-asserting the importance in Marxism of empirical science against the claim of “infinite reason,” while at the same time showing how Marx did transform key ideas in Hegelian thought to construct a consistently materialist dialectic." </div>

This volume contains a collection of Trotsky's writings on the Chinese revolution of 1925-27 and its aftermath.<br />
<br />
This failed revolution ended with the deaths of tens of thousands of communist workers and the total destruction of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) as an organised mass movement of the working class. One cannot understand the fundamental problems in modern Chinese history, in particular the nature of the Maoist regime that was established in 1949, without understanding the lessons of 1925-27.<br />
<br />
The perspective for the Chinese revolution was at the heart of Trotsky's struggle against the Stalinist bureaucracy. In this struggle, his theory of Permanent Revolution was put to a gigantic test—for the second time. With the support of the Soviet bureaucratic apparatus Stalin prevailed, leading to the betrayal of one of the most promising revolutionary opportunities since 1917. The defeat in China was a decisive blow to the Left Opposition. At the end of 1927, Trotsky was expelled from the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU) and then from the USSR.</div>

This book provides a wide-ranging and in-depth reappraisal of the
relation between Marx’s economic theory in Capital and Hegel’s Logic by
leading Marxian economists and philosophers from around the world. The
subjects dealt with include: systematic dialectics, the New Dialectics,
materialism vs. idealism, Marx’s ‘inversion’ of Hegel, Hegel’s Concept
logic (universality-particularity-singularity), Hegel’s Essence logic
(essence-appearance), Marx’s levels of abstraction of capital in general
and competition, and capital as Hegelian Subject.<br />
<br />
The papers in
this volume were originally presented at the 22nd annual meeting of the
International Symposium on Marxian Theory at Mount Holyoke College in
August 2011. The twelve authors are divided between seven economists and
five philosophers, as is fitting for the interdisciplinary subject of
the relation between Marx’s economic theory and Hegel’s logic.<br />

The contributors to this stimulating collection of thoughtful essays
examine the philosophical principles and logical structure underlying
Marx's economic theory in Capital.<br />
<br />
The essays deal with many
methodological issues including: the meaning of dialectic logic, the
relation between Marx and Hegel, the historical specificity of Marx's
concepts, the emphasis on social forms, the commodity as the starting

The Oxford Translation of Aristotle was originally published in twelve volumes between 1912 and 1954. The revised edition contains the substance of the original translation, slightly emended in light of recent scholarship; three of the original versions have been replaced by new translations; and a new and enlarged selection of fragments has been added. The aim of the translation remains the same: to make the surviving works of Aristotle readily accessible to English-speaking readers.</div>

This book counters a range of assumptions commonly held about Marx's
views of nationalism and internationalism, not least by
twentieth-century marxists themselves. It shows that Marx did not
envisage the abolition of national communities or nation states; that
the politics of nationalism in Marx is not incompatible with a politics
of class; that Marx was repeatedly critical of a "utopian"
internationalism, and that the themes of nationalism and international
solidarity, far from being necessarily in opposition, can be seen in
many cases as mutually reinforcing. Nationalism then emerges in Marxist
theory as a form of political self-identification and mobilization that
can contribute to the broader project of social and political freedom.</div>

Meikle emphasizes the roots of Marx's dialectical method in Aristotelian
essentialism and organicism. This is shown to constitute a challenge to
liberal scholars to rethink their methodological premises. Though many
liberals claim Aristotle as their intellectual forebear, they haue not
grasped the Aristotelian propensity for holistic analysis of social
phenomena—as Marx did. In order to reclaim Aristotle's legacy, liberals
must reformulate their economic and political ideas within a broader
context that takes account of historical, cultural and
socio‐psy‐chological factors. </div>

This is the first comprehensive examination of Leon Trotsky's view on
revolutionary organizational principles, and the dynamic interplay of
democratic initiative and principled centralism. Mostly in his own
words, these writings are grounded in Trotsky's experience in Russia's
revolutionary movement, as a leader of the International Left Opposition
and Fourth International.</div>

Lenin Reloaded is a rallying call by some of the world’s leading Marxist
intellectuals for renewed attention to the significance of Vladimir
Lenin. The volume’s editors explain that it was Lenin who made Karl
Marx’s thought explicitly political, who extended it beyond the confines
of Europe, who put it into practice. They contend that a focus on Lenin
is urgently needed now, when global capitalism appears to be the only
game in town, the liberal-democratic system seems to have been settled
on as the optimal political organization of society, and it has become
easier to imagine the end of the world than a modest change in the mode
of production. Lenin retooled Marx’s thought for specific historical
conditions in 1914, and Lenin Reloaded urges a reinvention of the
revolutionary project for the present. Such a project would be Leninist
in its commitment to action based on truth and its acceptance of the
consequences that follow from action.<br />
<br />
These essays, some of which
are appearing in English for the first time, bring Lenin face-to-face
with the problems of today, including war, imperialism, the imperative
to build an intelligentsia of wage earners, the need to embrace the
achievements of bourgeois society and modernity, and the widespread
failure of social democracy. Lenin Reloaded demonstrates that truth and
partisanship are not mutually exclusive as is often suggested. Quite the
opposite—in the present, truth can be articulated only from a
thoroughly partisan position.<br />

Introduction to Sociology distills decades of distinguished work in
sociology by one of this century's most influential thinkers in the
areas of social theory, philosophy, aesthetics, and music.<br />
<br />
It
consists of a course of seventeen lectures given by Theodor W. Adorno in
May-July 1968, the last lecture series before his death in 1969.
Captured by tape recorder (which Adorno called "the fingerprint of the
living mind"), these lectures present a somewhat different, and more
accessible, Adorno from the one who composed the faultlessly articulated
and almost forbiddingly perfect prose of the works published in his
lifetime. Here we can follow Adorno's thought in the process of
formation (he spoke from brief notes), endowed with the spontaneity and
energy of the spoken word. The lectures form an ideal introduction to
Adorno's work, acclimatizing the reader to the greater density of
thought and language of his classic texts.<br />
<br />
Delivered at the time
of the "positivist dispute" in sociology, Adorno defends the position of
the "Frankfurt School" against criticism from mainstream positivist
sociologists. He sets out a conception of sociology as a discipline
going beyond the compilation and interpretation of empirical facts, its
truth being inseparable from the essential structure of society itself.
Adorno sees sociology not as one academic discipline among others, but
as an over-arching discipline that impinges on all aspects of social
life.<br />
<br />
Tracing the history of the discipline and insisting that
the historical context is constitutive of sociology itself, Adorno
addresses a wide range of topics, including: the purpose of studying
sociology; the relation of sociology and politics; the influence of
Saint-Simon, Comte, Durkheim, Weber, Marx, and Freud; the contributions
of ethnology and anthropology; the relationship of method to subject
matter; the problems of quantitative analysis; the fetishization of
science; and the separation of sociology and social philosophy.</div>

What has philosophy to do with the poor? If, as has often been supposed,
the poor have no time for philosophy, then why have philosophers always
made time for them? Why is the history of philosophy—from Plato to Karl
Marx to Jean-Paul Sartre to Pierre Bourdieu—the history of so many
figures of the poor: plebes, men of iron, the demos, artisans, common
people, proletarians, the masses? Why have philosophers made the
shoemaker, in particular, a remarkably ubiquitous presence in this
history? Does philosophy itself depend on this thinking about the poor?
If so, can it ever refrain from thinking for them?Jacques Ranci?re’s The
Philosopher and His Poor meditates on these questions in close readings
of major texts of Western thought in which the poor have played a
leading role—sometimes as the objects of philosophical analysis,
sometimes as illustrations of philosophical argument. Published in
France in 1983 and made available here for the first time in English,
this consummate study assesses the consequences for Marx, Sartre, and
Bourdieu of Plato’s admonition that workers should do “nothing else”
than their own work. It offers innovative readings of these thinkers’
struggles to elaborate a philosophy of the poor. Presenting a left
critique of Bourdieu, the terms of which are largely unknown to an
English-language readership, The Philosopher and His Poor remains
remarkably timely twenty years after its initial publication.<br />

Louis Althusser was probably one of the most complex - and the most
controversial - of the "maitres de penser" to emerge from the turbulent
Parisian intellectual scene of the 1960s. During a long career,
Althusser achieved wide fame, notoriety and, finally, effacement. Yet
his work remains an important element in contemporary philosophy and
cultural critique. This volume, timed to coincide with the
English-language publication of Althusser's autobiography, "The Future
Lasts a Long Time", assesses the importance and influence of
"Althusserianism", both in relation to, and beyond, the controversies of
his political career and the events of his personal biography. One of
the principal aims of the book is to situate Althusser and his texts
within the wider histories and cultures to which they belong, drawing on
contributors from a wide range of backgrounds and geographical
locations. Thus E.J. Hobsbawm contextualizes Althusser's Marxism;
Pierre Villar assesses Althusserian historiography; Paul Ricoeur probes
Althusser's theory of ideology; Axel Honneth articulates his relation to
the principal rival schools of Marxism in the 1960s and 1970s; Peter
Dews examines his relations to the structuralist school; David Macey
casts a sceptical eye over his alliance with Lacan; Francis Mulhern
explores the diversity of Anglophone "Althusserianism"; and Gregory
Elliott responds to Althusser's analysis of his own case history. The
book concludes with a bibliography of Althusser's analysis of his own
case history.</div>

This
work both argues for, and demonstrates, a new turn to dialectic. Marx's
"Capital" was clearly influenced by Hegel's dialectical figures - here,
case by case, the significance of these is clarified.

First published in Portuguese in 1968, Pedagogy of the Oppressed was translated and published in English in 1970. The methodology of the late Paulo Freire has helped to empower countless impoverished and illiterate people throughout the world. Freire's work has taken on especial urgency in the United States and Western Europe, where the creation of a permanent underclass among the underprivileged and minorities in cities and urban centers is increasingly accepted as the norm. With a substantive new introduction on Freire's life and the remarkable impact of this book by writer and Freire confidant and authority Donaldo Macedo, this anniversary edition of Pedagogy of the Oppressed will inspire a new generation of educators, students, and general readers for years to come.</div>

In
"23 Things They Don't Tell You About Capitalism", one of today's most
iconoclastic thinkers destroys the biggest myths about the world we live
in. It may have its flaws, but there's no real alternative to
free-market capitalism - ultimately it's making us all more prosperous.
The West is more efficient and financially savvy than the developing
world. And technology is the way forward for everyone. Right? Wrong.
This book will turn every piece of received economic wisdom you've heard
on its head. It reveals the truth behind what 'they' tell you and shows
how the system really works, including: There's no such thing as a
'free' market; Globalization isn't making the world richer; We don't
live in a digital world - the washing machine has changed lives more
than the internet; Poor countries are more entrepreneurial than rich
ones; and, Higher paid managers don't produce better results. This
galvanizing, fact-packed book about money, equality, freedom and greed
proves that the free market isn't just bad for people - it's an
inefficient way of running economies too. Here Chang lays out the
alternatives, and shows there's a better way. </div>
