This comprehensive and lucid study, first published in 1985,
reconstructs the history of Western Marxist theories of the
breakdown of capitalism. It provides a critical reading of theories
of breakdown, with their conflicting interpretations of a single
text, their invulnerability to empirical defeat, and their retreat
from class analysis, as events in the history of ideas. This study
traces the sources of theoretical conflict in a series of
historical and epistemological issues that shift over time and
generate new conditions for speculations concerning the fate of the
system. In seeking to understand that durability of the concept of
breakdown, the author raises important questions about the social
conditions and consequences of theoretical work and the status of
critical thought in society. This title will be of interest to
students of history and economics.
