These works reflect the fact that 2017 witnessed an upsurge of philosophical publications on Marx and Marxism. On one level, this is because 2017 was simultaneously the 150-year anniversary of the publication of the first volume of Marx's Capital and the 100-year anniversary of the Russian Revolution. Yet on another, more substantial, level, these works point to the enduring question of the meaning of 'Marxist philosophy' in its dual, and disputed, relationship to transformative political practice, on the one hand, and to the history of philosophy on the other. There are different threads that tie these works together, but two concepts, coming out of Louis Althusser's work, stand out: those of 'conjuncture' and 'symptomatic reading'. In short, this chapter suggests that the importance of modern European philosophy is in large part attributable to the theoretical and political problems that Marxism constitutes for it, problems which, at the same time, Marxism cannot articulate without this philosophy. The chapter is divided into five sections: 1. Introduction; 2. Writing and Conjuncture: Citizen Subject ; 3. A Symptomatic Reading: The Concept in Crisis ; 4. A Symptomatic Reading? Marx's Inferno ; 5. Conclusion. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: © 2019 The English Association. item: Year's Work in Critical & Cultural Theory holder: Oxford University Press / USA dt: @attributes: year: 2018 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
