Biographical note
Étienne Balibar is the most celebrated student of Louis Althusser. A leading exponent of French radical philosophy, Balibar is the author of Spinoza and Politics and co-author of Race, Nation and Class and Reading Capital.A very intelligent and creative work-succinct and informative; it explores the ways in which Marxism as such challenges traditional philosophy (and the problems the latter possesses for it). It would certainly have a privileged place on the shelf of contemporary studies of Marx.
- Fredric Jameson,
A trenchant and exciting analysis of the philosophy of Marx. It is intelligent and original, and makes us understand the ways in which reading Marx lucidly can be very useful to us today. No dogma here and no banalities. A refreshing book.
- Immanuel Wallerstein,
This short book manages to be both a unexcelled introduction to Marx and, for those familiar with the texts, a sophisticated and suggestive commentary.
