Post-Marx Marxist theory? Sounds like an interesting subject for another, separate thread.
dweenlander wrote:Yes, it really is. It relates primarily to the work of post-war Marxist theorists and their often dismissive attitudes towards post-war Marxist historiography which challenged their notion of a revolutionary working class. E.P Thompson’s Poverty of Theory was a particularly bad-tempered, although brilliant, jeremiad aimed at theoreticians in this debate. I am eager to move my analysis and understanding in this area forward, and I would be hugely appreciative of future discussions on this and other areas of theory with you and other comrades.We have already had a thread discussing EP Thompson, including his theory of class consciousness, that will be relevant here:http://www.worldsocialism.org/spgb/forum/general-discussion/e-p-thompson
