New York: Oxford University Press, 1979, xxiii, 242pp., . Dust-jacket design by Egon Lauterberg. " "It is impossible to understand the forces shaping world history without a knowledge of Marxism," writes Melvin Rader. But Marx's interpretation of history was based on varied and contradictory sources and his writings often appear contradictory. Melvin Rader returns to the original sources and, without glossing over these apparent contradictions, reveals the underlying consistency in Marx's complex vision. Addressing a wide audience, his lucidly written text uses ordinary language to demonstrate the ultimate compatibility of Marx's three models of historical explanation: dialectical development; base and superstructure; and organic totality. Professor Rader's interpretation elucidates these models and shows their influence in shaping Marx's theory of history." - CONTENTS: Base and superstructure -- The fundamentalist and the dialectical versions of the base-superstructure model -- Summary of Marx's "materialist interpretation of history" -- A non-reductive interpretation of the preface -- Nature and human person -- The conflict between the productive forces and the productive relations -- The interpenetration of "science" and the economic base -- The role of education in the productive process -- Property, law, and the state -- Ideology -- The relation of art to base and superstructure -- Other spheres of culture: religion, morals, and philosophy -- Organic structure -- The organic totality model -- How the conception of organic totality took shape in Marx's thought -- Internal and external relations -- Hiearchy -- Lingering questions and an attempted answer -- Organic development -- Historicism -- Plato and Marx -- Dialectic in Hegel and Marx -- The historical dialectic of essence and existence -- Alienation -- The relation of alienation to the two models of historical interpretation -- The objective stages of historical explanation -- A multilinear and organic theory of history -- The abstract and the concrete -- Marx and the expressivist movement -- The expressivist influence of Schiller -- Feuerbach on abstraction and conreteness -- Hegel and Marx on abstraction and concreteness -- Concreteness and abstraction in human life -- The polemic against political abstraction -- The polemic angainst economic abstraction -- Crisis and revolution -- The relation of revolutionary crisis to models of historical explanation -- Differing interpretations of Marx -- The organic way of thinking about crisis -- The concept of historical crisis -- The outer dialectic: conflict between productive forces and productive relations -- The inner dialectic of powers and needs -- The economic system in the light of human needs -- The future as history: revolution and reconstruction -- Unsituated and situated freedom. - The resurgence of the dialectical model -- A backward glance. 9780195024746 ISBN 0195024745.
