Contemporary Radical Theory: Marxisms and Post-Marxisms`

This course looks at different approaches to identifying, interpreting and applying Marxist principles and methods, and evaluates critical responses to Marxist theory and practice. Marxist thought remains important for a number of reasons. Marx`s insights into the workings of capitalism are still regarded by supporters and opponents alike to have relevance today. His works, and the criticisms they generated, have produced some of the most influential political theoretical developments as well as encouraging oppressive - and liberatory - political movements. The course covers: Orthodox Marxism; liberal critiques of Marxism (Popper and Berlin); Marx`s Capital; ethics and anti-morality in Marx; Frankfurt School; Libertarian Marxisms; Autonomist Marxism; Post-Marxisms.
