marxist accounts of power
Definition(s)
- Roughly speaking, and leaving aside doctrines of Marxism in power associated with Lenin, Stalin, Mao, and other revolutionary leaders, Marxist contributions to the study of power after Karl Marx and Antonio Gramsci tend to fall in one or more of the following categories: Western Marxism, critical theory, and structuralism. It is sometimes asserted that the critique of instrumental reason common to much of Western Marxism and critical theory is an attempt to reconstruct a philosophical debate on consciousness, experience, reason, and knowledge that in fundamental respects goes back to Immanuel Kant and G. W. F. Hegel, and that as such the great philosophical rigor of Western Marxism and critical theory is achieved at the great expense of a substantial sociological deficit.
