A Contribution to the Critique of Marxian Economics - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Decades after the collapse of Marxist-Leninism in Eastern Europe, a Hungarian freelance scholar reexamines its core tenets to reveal why the doctrine is fundamentally unworkable.

This concise, technically oriented critique dissects the labour theory of value, the theory of surplus value, Marx's interpretation of the division of labour, historical materialism, metaphysical materialism, and Marxist anthropology. It also offers sporadic but incisive critiques of interpretations advanced by several of Marx's most influential followers, including Engels, Hilferding, Adorno, Lukács, Althusser, Gramsci, Žižek, Badiou, and others. The analysis draws extensively on primary sources, especially the Marx-Engels Collected Works.

Please note that the present essay is not an introductory primer but a polemical critique that presupposes familiarity with its subject matter.
