Karl Marx's Grundrisse: Foundations of the Critique of Political Economy 150 Years Later

摘要

Marcello Musto examines Marx's famous method of moving from the abstract to the concrete (17): the historical, he comments, is decisive for the understanding of reality, while the logical makes it possible to conceive history as something other than a flat chronology of events (21). Terrell Carver addresses the debate about alienation (remember Althusser and his attack on humanism) , while Ellen Meiksins Wood talks about the problems posed by more recent scholarship for Marx's discussion of the "forms which precede capitalist production" (77) .John Bellamy Foster convincingly shows how the Grundrisse is full of acknowledgements of nature's limits (96), and Moishe Postone argues that the Grundrisse could provide a point of departure for "a reinvigorated critical analysis," given the weaknesses of post-Marxist discourses like postmodernism and poststructuralism (121).
