Synopsis

Readings of political theorists change within different political contexts. They also change as political theory itself alters its methodology. Marx has an established position in the canon of classical thinkers, and in the body of ideas to which politicians have recourse for ideas and ideologies. Marx has been read as a revolutionary, a scientist, a philosopher, an economist and as other personae. This book sets a fresh agenda for reading Marx. Terrell Carver argues that Marx's critical work on contemporary democratic and authoritarian movements deserves to take centre stage, but is ripe for reassessment. The new interpretive methodologies of postmodernism and the changing global political situation, provide the intellectual and political impetus.
