Synopsis

This book, part dictionary and part encyclopaedia, has become the standard reference work on the concepts of Marxism and the individuals and schools of thought that have subsequently contributed to the body of Marxist ideas. The dictionary has been fulled revised and updated, with over fifty new entries on major texts, on topics that have become relevant since the first edition appeared, and in areas where the state of knowledge and understanding has moved significantly. All entries have been revised where needed, all reading lists updated, and the bibliography has been completely revised and expanded.

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

"A remarkable editorial achievement. The book can be confidently recommended as a fair and informed account of the community of Marxist positions." New York Times Book Review

"An invaluable aid in identifying the key terms in Marx′s own work and distinguishing their force in Marx from the uses made of them by later writers." Times Literary Supplement

"Bottomore and his colleagues have done a remarkable job ... At last I can look up the transformation problem, the Second Interantional, or the Aiastic mode of production without digging through half a dozen books for a half–remembered reference." Charles Tilly, University of Michigan

Quatrième de couverture

This book, part dictionary and part encyclopedia, aims to provide the user with a clear but scholarly guide both to the basic concepts of Marxism and to the individuals and schools of thought whose work has contributed to forming the body of Marxist ideas since Marx s day. It is designed to be of use both to those who encounter Marxist conceptions in the course of their own studies and to the many people who want to be informed about a theory and doctrine that has played, and continues to play, a major part in shaping the present–day world.
