Marxism as an intellectual movement has been one of the most
important and fertile contributions to twentieth-century thought.
No social theory or political philosophy today can be taken
seriously unless it enters a dialogue, not just with the legacy of
Marx, but also with the innovations and questions that spring from
the movement that his work sparked, Marxism. Marx provided a
revolutionary set of ideas about freedom, politics and society. As
social and political conditions changed and new intellectual
challenges to Marx's social philosophy arose, the Marxist theorists
sought to update his social theory, rectify the sociological
positions of historical materialism and respond to philosophical
challenges with a Marxist reply. This book provides an accessible
introduction to Marxism by explaining each of the key concepts of
Marxist politics and social theory. The book is organized into
three parts, which explore the successive waves of change within
Marxist theory and places these in historical context, while the
whole provides a clear and comprehensive account of Marxism as an
intellectual system.
