An Anthropology of Marxism

Viac o knihe

Examining the roots of communalism, Cedric Robinson critiques the traditional Marxist narrative by highlighting the existence of socialist ideals in various civilizations prior to modern capitalism. He explores the social, cultural, and historical contexts that fostered communal living, arguing against the Eurocentric view of Marxism. The book redefines the communal ideal, suggesting it has deeper, diverse origins that extend beyond the confines of modernity and industrialization. Enhanced by a foreword from H.L.T. Quan and a preface by Avery Gordon, it offers a fresh perspective on societal reimagining.
