Features: This book is another important collection on analytical Marxism following "Analytical Marxism" edited by Roderick MacLeod and others. It is part of the "New Perspectives" series launched by the Journal of Canadian Philosophy in the late 1980s. Except for the "Introduction" and "Afterword," the book is divided into four parts: the first part consists of four programmatic essays that evaluate analytical Marxism in different ways; the second part discusses the methodology and microfoundations of analytical Marxism; the third part examines Marx's concept of exploitation; the fourth part explores specific issues in Marxism, such as historical progress, ideology, and alienation. After the 1990s, analytical Marxism further developed in the direction of market socialism. This collection represents the new research achievements in analytical Marxism in recent years and holds significant reference value for domestic research on analytical Marxism.
