Today, as never before, the investigation of the close relationship between social structure “ defined by Marx as arising from the life-process of definite individuals “ and the various forms of consciousness is particularly important. We can only perceive what is possible by first identifying the historical process that constrains consciousness itself, and therefore social action.

The relationship between social structure and forms of consciousness discussed in this new work by one of the world`s leading Marxism philosophers is multifaceted and profoundly dialectical. It requires the presentation of a great wealth of historical material and the assessment of the relevant philosophical literature, from Descartes through Hegel and the Liberal tradition to the present, together with their connections with political economy and political theory. IstvA¡n MAszA¡ros moves beyond both abstract solutions to the surveyed methodological questions and one-sided structuralist evaluation of the important substantive issue, bringing the process of our understanding of social structure and consciousness to a level not previously attained.isbn-9789350020777
