Features: "Foreign Marxism" primarily involves the application of Marxism, with its research approach using Marxism as a theoretical tool to analyze and critique contemporary capitalist reality. "Foreign Marxism Studies" (or "Foreign Marxology") primarily focuses on Marx's texts themselves, encompassing academic research on the editions of Marx's works, the development of his thought, and his theoretical viewpoints. The distinction between "Foreign Marxism" and "Foreign Marxism Studies" reflects the division between the "ideological" and "academic" aspects of scholarly discourse. Foreign Marxists typically appear as thinkers, while Foreign Marxologists present themselves as experts. This book systematically introduces and analyzes hot topics in the study of Foreign Marxism, which is commonly referred to as tracking research.
