Marx was a German philosopher, critic of political economy, economist, historian, sociologist, political theorist, journalist and socialist revolutionary. His best-known titles are the 1848 pamphlet The Communist Manifesto and the four-volume Das Kapital (1867–1883).

His work in economics laid the basis for some current theories about labor and its relation to capital.

Book Synopsis Marx's 'Capital' (Routledge Revivals) by : Geoffrey Pilling
Download or read book Marx's 'Capital' (Routledge Revivals) written by Geoffrey Pilling and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-12-16 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marx’s Capital has of course been widely read; this revival of a systematic study by Geoffrey Pilling, originally published in 1980, argues powerfully that, in order to understand Capital fully, it is necessary to have read and understood Hegel’s Logic. This argument leads to a detailed examination of the opening chapters of Capital, and a re-examination of their significance for the work as a whole. Pilling emphasizes the fundamental nature of the break between Marx’s Capital and all forms of classical political economy, and stresses the revolutionary nature of Marx’s critique of political economy as one of the foundations of Capital. He also lays particular emphasis on the philosophical aspects of the work, so often neglected by British commentators, and puts forward the view that Marx’s notion of fetishism, often looked upon as incidental to his work, is in fact central to his entire critique of political economy.
Book Synopsis Marxism (Routledge Revivals) by : Thomas Sowell
Download or read book Marxism (Routledge Revivals) written by Thomas Sowell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-10-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1985, Thomas Sowelle(tm)s book is a crisp, lucid and commonsensical introduction to Marxe(tm)s own writings and to Marxist theory. It combines readability with intellectual rigour and distils more than a quarter of a century of Thomas Sowelle(tm)s research and thought on the philosophical and economic doctrines of Karl Marx. Its central theme is that Marxian philosophy must be understood before Marxian economics can be defined. The book discusses Marxe(tm)s ideas, including his philosophy of history, concept of capitalist "exploitation", morality and business cycle theory. The authore(tm)s treatment is balanced, though often critical and displays a mastery of Marxe(tm)s own writings which are liberally extracted throughout the text.
Book Synopsis Marx and the End of Orientalism (Routledge Revivals) by : Bryan S. Turner
Download or read book Marx and the End of Orientalism (Routledge Revivals) written by Bryan S. Turner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-11 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1978, this title analyses a range of problems that arise in the study of North Africa and the Middle East, bridging the gap between studies of Sociology, Islam, and Marxism. Both Sociology and the study of Islam draw on an Orientalist tradition founded on an idealist epistemology, ethnocentric values and an evolutionary view of historical development. Bryan Turner challenges the basic assumptions of Orientalism by considering such issues as the social structure of Islamic society, the impact of capitalism in the Middle East, the effect of Israel on territories, revolutions, social classes and nationalism. A detailed and fascinating study, Marx and the End of Orientalism will be of particular interest to students studying the sociology of colonialism and development, Marxist sociology and sociological theory.

Download or read book Marxism and Modern Thought (Routledge Revivals) written by N.I. Bukharin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-05 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in English in 1935, this is a vital and stimulating critical appraisal of contemporary thought in the post-World War One era. Written by a selection of leading Marxist thinkers including Nikolai Bukharin, who would later become one of the most famous victims of Stalin's show trials, this work offers a Marxist critique of contemporary thought relating to philosophy, science and history. The authors all lean towards the view that the general tendency of modern thought is to abandon the historical method and to deny progress, with the conclusion that Marxism was the only historical and progressive outlook in science, philosophy and history in the period following the First World War and the Communist revolution in Russia. A fascinating document of great historical and political interest which offers an invaluable insight into contemporary thought in the Soviet Union of the 1930s.

Book Synopsis Dialectical Phenomenolgy (Routledge Revivals) by : Roslyn Bologh
Download or read book Dialectical Phenomenolgy (Routledge Revivals) written by Roslyn Bologh and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-10-16 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this inquiry into Marx’s method of theorising, originally published in 1979, Roslyn Bologh analyses theory in the same way that Marx analyses the production of capital, and provides a set of rules for reproducing Marx’s method. The rules are developed through an examination of the Grundrisse, a text by Marx that combines his technical critique of political economy with his humanistic, philosophical concerns and his historical perspective. Dr Bologh concludes that Marx’s method, as dialectical phenomenology, offers a way of analysing language, knowledge and the social relations and practices of everyday life, as well as the more obvious phenomena of capitalism.
Book Synopsis Routledge Revivals: Pre-Capitalist Modes of Production (1975) by : Paul Q. Hirst
Download or read book Routledge Revivals: Pre-Capitalist Modes of Production (1975) written by Paul Q. Hirst and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1975, this book investigates the various pre-capitalist modes of production briefly indicated in the works of Marx and Engels, and gives an examination of the conditions of the transition from one mode of production to another. The fundamental concepts used in these investigations, including those of mode of production, of necessary labour and surpass labour, of politics and state, are derived from Capital and from other works of Marxist theory. The primary aim of the analysis is to raise the conceptualisation of pre-capitalist modes of production and of transition to a more rigorous level. This book will appear controversial to both Marxists and non-Marxists alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this reissued collection of essays, first published in 1985, Paul Q. Hirst assesses the limits of the Marxist theory of history in its various versions. It begins with an extended critical discussion of Perry Anderson and Edward Thompson, and includes chapters on G.A Cohen’s attempt to re-state the Marxist theory of history in terms compatible with analytic philosophy, on R.G. Collingwood’s theory of history, on Anderson’s work on Absolutism, on Thompson’s Poverty of Theory, and on the contemporary politics of democratic socialism.
Book Synopsis The Value Dimension (Routledge Revivals) by : Ben Fine
Download or read book The Value Dimension (Routledge Revivals) written by Ben Fine and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-02 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this edited collection, first published in 1986, focus on important debates surrounding the central Marxian problem of the transformation of values into prices. The collection brings together major contributions on the value theory debate from the decade prior to the book’s publication, and assesses the debate’s significance for wider issues. Value theory emerges as much more than a technical relation between labour time and prices, and the structure of the capitalist economy is scrutinised. This is a relevant and comprehensive work, valuable to students, academics and professionals with an interest in political and Marxist economy.
Book Synopsis Communism and Development (Routledge Revivals) by : Robert Bideleux
Download or read book Communism and Development (Routledge Revivals) written by Robert Bideleux and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-27 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1985, this book provides a comprehensive reappraisal of the diverse Communist development strategies that shaped the twentieth century. Robert Bideleux emphasises the appalling human and economic costs of the most widely adopted ‘Stalinist’ strategies of forced industrialisation and rural collectivisation. He also reconsiders the powerful arguments in favour of the most feasible and cost-effective alternatives to Stalinism, including ‘village communisms’ and ‘market socialisms’. A highly readable and challenging study, this reissue will be of particular value to students with research interests in Development Studies, East European History and Politics.
Book Synopsis A Truer Liberty (Routledge Revivals) by : Laurence A. Blum
Download or read book A Truer Liberty (Routledge Revivals) written by Laurence A. Blum and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-10-15 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simone Weil — philosopher, trade union militant, factory worker — developed a penetrating critique of Marxism and a powerful political philosophy which serves an alternative both to liberalism and to Marxism. In A Truer Liberty, originally published in 1989, Blum and Seidler show how Simone Weil’s philosophy sought to place political action on a firmly moral basis. The dignity of the manual worker became the standard for political institutions and movements. Weil criticized Marxism for its confidence in progress and revolution and its attendant illusory belief that history is on the side of the proletariat. Blum and Seidler relate Weil’s work to influential trends in political philosophy today, from analytic Marxism to central traditions within liberal thought. The authors stress the importance of Weil’s work for understanding liberation theology, Catholic radicalism, and, more generally, social movements against oppression which are closely tied to religion and spirituality.
Book Synopsis Capitalism and Leisure Theory (Routledge Revivals) by : Chris Rojek
Download or read book Capitalism and Leisure Theory (Routledge Revivals) written by Chris Rojek and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-19 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1985, this title explores theories of leisure in a capitalist society. Basing his argument on a refutation of the conventional association of leisure with freedom and free time, Chris Rojek examines the four main structural characteristics of modern leisure practice: privatisation, individuation, commercialisation and pacification. The writings of Marx, Durkheim, Weber, and Freud are used to locate the question of leisure in more mainstream social theory. This interesting reissue will be of particular value to students of sociology and leisure studies, and those with an interest in the relationship between leisure and power.
