Marx, Marxism and the Question of Eurocentrism

This book mediates between postcolonial positions that criticize Marxist approaches (and Marx’s writings) for their Eurocentrism and defenders of Marx, who claim that this accusation is a myth.

This book mediates between postcolonial positions that criticize Marxist approaches (and Marx''s writings) for their Eurocentrism and defenders of Marx, who claim that this accusation is a myth. In different contributions to this volume, Kolja Lindner pleads for a differentiated assessment of the whole of Marx''s work, including less known manuscripts, and a theoretical reconstruction of various elements that have come into the focus of postcolonial critique: ethnocentrism, Orientalism, false universalism and the oblivion of modernity''s global entanglement. Against this background, two opportunities simultaneously arise: Marx''s Eurocentrism can be deconstructed and his growing awareness of global developments and cosmopolitan struggles established.
