The basic discoveries underlying Marx's critique of political
economy - labour power, surplus value, use value - are all in some
way built upon the concept of need. From Marx's varying and passing
interpretations of a theory of need, Agnes Heller unravels the main
tendencies and demonstrates the importance which Marx attached to
the "restructuring" of a system of needs going beyond the purely
material. She also brings out those aspects, especially the idea of
"radical needs" which point to revolutionary activity and to the
project which Marx could only foresee but which for us today is of
real urgency: the "society of associated producers". Thus Agnes
Heller's study is not only the first full presentation of a
fundamental aspect of Marx, but the basis for a discussion of the
utmost contemporary relevance.
