Rezensionen

"After a period of drought in serious Marx scholarship, thepublication of Rockmore's book, at once so well informed and soinformative in both philosophical and historical terms, is a markerevent. It makes a strong and clear case, by means of a carefulsurvey of Marx's own texts, for resituating him in the tradition ofGerman idealism and separating him from the accrued excess baggageof later 'Marxisms." William L. McBride, Purdue University

"The decline of communism has been accompanied by a decline ininterest in Marx. Rockmore's Marx After Marxism is thebeginning of a new assessment of Marx that will help reverse thattrend. The book's overall stance concerns what Marx got out ofHegel at different times in his own development. Rockmore alsogives a fine account of Marx's main work in political economy,especially the central ideas of Capital; this is where anyMarx revival should focus in providing a critique of our ownsociety."
