Revolutionary Subjectivity in the Thought of Karl Marx

A novel interdisciplinary interpretation and critique of the social philosophy of Karl Marx which comprehensively elucidates core features of his theoretical work and projects beyond it by unpacking a terminal problem with his idea of revolutionary subjectivity.

---

Revolutionary Subjectivity in the Thought of Karl Marx charts a coherent course of rigorous interpretive analysis through Marx’s social theory. The journey involves various forays into the theoretical foundations of Marx’s work which have previously been misrepresented in scholarly discourse, culminating in a critical navigation of the inconsistency of his idea of revolutionary subjectivity. In due course, this intellectual odyssey incorporates an expedition for the incipient psychology and theory of mind in Marx’s work, arriving at a theoretical waypoint in which Husserl’s phenomenology and Freud’s psychoanalysis (particularly as developed by Melanie Klein) dialogue with Marx’s social theory as advantageous perspectives for the sublation of his ideas.
