Reading Capital by Louis Althusser

Reading Capital by Louis Althusser

This volume presents Louis Althusser's systematic theory of a Marxism cleansed of all idealist and Hegelian notions.

The strength of Althusser's objections to the Hegelian interpretation of Marx is substantial, the acuteness of his analysis of certain weaknesses of the thought of Gramsci and of Sartre is impressive, the critique of 'model-building' is to the point One reads his passionate study with attention, even excitement-- Eric Hobsbawm * Times Literary Supplement *
