9781350026865: The First Marx: An Philosophical Introduction

Synopsis

Marx's early work is well known and widely available, but it usually interpreted as at best a kind of stepping-stone to the Marx of Capital. This book offers something completely different; reconstructing from his first writings a coherent and well-rounded political philosophy of the first Marx, spanning from 1835 to 1846. Arguments regarding revolutionary change, contradiction and other topics such as production, alienation and emancipation contribute to a powerful analysis in the early works of Marx, one which is worthy of discussion on its own merits. This analysis is distributed among a range of books, papers, letters and other writings, and is gathered here for the first time. This new book will present Marx in a unique, new light and will be indispensable reading for all studying and following his work.
