Features: In this book, Alan Wood conducts a critical examination of influential schools of thought within Marxism. Dissatisfied with post-Marxism's separation of political practice from class and class struggle theory, she elaborates on her creative understanding of the complex relationship between class, ideology, and politics, and delves into the connection between socialism and democracy. In her revised preface, Wood affirms the significance of this book in the post-Soviet world and seeks to inject a dose of realism into the ironic, unprincipled embrace of capitalism through a re-examination of class politics.
