"After a period of drought in serious Marx scholarship, the publication of Rockmore's book, at once so well informed and so informative in both philosophical and historical terms, is a marker event. It makes a strong and clear case, by means of a careful survey of Marx's own texts, for resituating him in the tradition of German idealism and separating him from the accrued excess baggage of later ‘Marxisms." <i>William L. McBride, Purdue University <</i>!--end--><br /> <p>"The decline of communism has been accompanied by a decline in interest in Marx. Rockmore's <i>Marx After Marxism</i> is the beginning of a new assessment of Marx that will help reverse that trend. The book's overall stance concerns what Marx got out of Hegel at different times in his own development. Rockmore also gives a fine account of Marx's main work in political economy, especially the central ideas of <i>Capital</i>; this is where any Marx revival should focus in providing a critique of our own society." <i>Robert Nola, University of Auckland</i></p>

<b><br /> </b> <p><b>Tom Rockmore</b> is Professor of Philosophy at Duquesne University. He is author of numerous books, including <i>Cognition: An Introduction to Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit</i> (1997) and <i>On Heidegger's Nazism and Philosophy</i> (second edition,1997), and editor of <i>Interpretation in Art, Literature and Science</i> (Blackwell 2000).</p>

<i><br /> </i> <p><i>Marx After Marxism</i> encourages readers to understand Karl Marx in new ways, unencumbered by political Marxist interpretations that have long dominated the discussions of both Marxists and non-Marxists. This volume gives a broad and accessible account of Marx's philosophy and emphasizes his relationship to Hegel.<br /> </p> <p>Marxism has always claimed and still claims a privileged relation to Marx's theories. It typically presents a view of Marx that is widely accepted by Marxists, non-Marxists, and even anti-Marxists, unfortunately without careful scrutiny. This book argues that political Marxist influence obscures, transforms, distorts, and renders inaccessible Marx's basic philosophical insights. It concentrates on recovering Marx's philosophical ideas not in opposition to, but rather within, the larger Hegelian framework.<br /> </p> <p>Now that we have seen the end of political Marxism's peak global influence, it is possible, for perhaps the first time, to depict Marx as a philosopher who began to think within, and remained within, the German philosophical tradition.</p>
