This concise and accessible introduction brings the writings of
Marx and Engels and later thinkers in the Marxist tradition
including Althusser, Gramsci, the Frankfurt School as well as
Liberation Theologians such as Gutierrez and Maduro, into focus in
relation to questions of religion, social change and social
justice. Marx was a nineteenth century thinker trying to develop a
theory that could explain the dramatic social and technological
changes that he lived through. Later thinkers modified and
developed key elements of Marx' theoretical model, with religion -
particularly Christianity - providing a vital point of critical
self-reflection for thinkers in the Marxist tradition. This book
tracks these modifications and developments to Marx' ideas, and
their continuing relevance to contemporary debates about religion,
social change and social justice.
