In this classic study, which won the Isaac Deutscher Memorial
Prize, Ellen Wood provides a critical survey of influential trends
in "post-Marxist" theory. Challenging their dissociation of
politics from class, she elaborates her own original conception of
the complex relations between class, ideology and politics. In the
process, Wood explores the links between socialism and democracy
and reinterprets the relationship between liberal and socialist
democracy. In a new introduction, Wood discusses the relevance of
The Retreat from Class in a post-Soviet world. She traces the
connections between post-Marxism and current academic trends such
as postmodernism and argues that a re-examination of class politics
is a necessary counter to the current cynical acceptance of
capitalism.
