This book considers Karl Marx's ideas in relation to the social and
political context in which he lived and wrote. It emphasizes both
the continuity of his commitment to the cause of full human
emancipation, and the role of his critique of political economy in
conceiving history to be the history of class struggles. The book
follows his developing ideas from before he encountered political
economy, through the politics of 1848 and the Bonapartist "farce,",
the maturation of the critique of political economy in the
Grundrisse and Capital, and his engagement with the politics of the
First International and the legacy of the Paris Commune.
Notwithstanding errors in historical judgment largely reflecting
the influence of dominant liberal historiography, Marx laid the
foundations for a new social theory premised upon the historical
consequences of alienation and the potential for human freedom.
