Originally published in 1974, Kojin Karatani's Marx: Towards the
Centre of Possibility has been among his most enduring and
pioneering works in critical theory. Written at a time when the
political sequences of the New Left had collapsed into crisis and
violence, with widespread political exhaustion for the competing
sectarian visions of Marxism from 1968, Karatani's Marx laid the
groundwork for a new reading, unfamiliar to the existing Marxist
discourse in Japan at the time. Karatani's Marx takes on insights
from semiotics, deconstruction, and the reading of Marx as a
literary thinker, treating Capital as an intervention in philosophy
that could be read as itself a theory of signs. Marx is unique in
this sense, not only because of its importance in post-'68 Japanese
thought, but also because the heterodox reading of Marx that
Karatani debuts in this text, centred on his theory of the
value-form, will go on to form the basis of his globally
influential work.
