Marx's Grundrisse is acknowledged as the vital link between Marx's
early and late work. It is also a crucial text in elucidating
Marx's debt to the idealist philosopher G.W.F. Hegel. This book,
first published in 1988, is the first full-length study of that
relationship, in a thorough textual analysis which makes the
connections explicit and also the Grundrisse's relations to the
works of Adam Smith and Aristotle. This book argues that Marx's
critique of political economy, and his critique of Hegel, are
double interrelated. Not only did Marx adapt Hegelian logic in
order to analyse the economic categories crucial to modern society
but it is argued that those logical categories were themselves seen
as reflections of the productive processes of contemporary
commercial society. Uchida reveals a conceptual structure common to
the apparently rarefied world of Hegelian conceptual logic and to
the supposedly common-sensical world of economic science.
Demonstrating this is a considerable achievement, and it allows us
to consider precisely what is valuable today in Marx's critical
commentary on this conceptual structure and on the type of society
in which it is manifested. Uchida's subject, like Marx's, is 'the
force of capital on modern life'.
