If so, what are these and how do they shift across his writings and inform his critical theory of capitalist society? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eMarx and the Critique of Humanism\u003c\/i\u003e addresses these questions through a diverse collection of critical interventions from leading Marxist scholars. These contributions offer both a renewed appraisal and contextualisation of the notion of 'the human' across Marx's \u003ci\u003eoeuvre\u003c\/i\u003e, as well as a range of critical perspectives on the status of humanism within critical social theory today. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book revaluates Marx's relation to humanism by examining the intellectual context, influences and interlocutors which shaped his theoretical commitments and critical methodology; the concept of '\u003ci\u003eGattungswesen\u003c\/i\u003e' in Marx's early writings; the ways in which 'the human' informs and is transformed by Marx's critique of political economy; the ecological dimensions of Marx's thought; the reception of Marx's humanism by anti-colonial thinkers; and the relation of Marx's thought to post-structuralist and post-humanist critiques of enlightenment humanism. Moving beyond the simplistic picture of a 'humanistic' early Marx and a 'scientific' late Marx, this volume shows instead how a sustained concern with the human evolves in tandem with Marx's broader intellectual development.","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47592299626647,"sku":"9781350526358","price":10805.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781350526358.webp?v=1774977191","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/marx-and-the-critique-of-humanism-9781350526358","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
