{"product_id":"reading-capital-the-complete-edition","title":"Reading Capital: The Complete Edition","description":"A classic work of Marxist analysis, available unabridged for the first time\n\nOriginally published in 1965, Reading Capital is a landmark of French thought and radical theory, reconstructing Western Marxism from its foundations. Louis Althusser, the French Marxist philosopher, maintained that Marx’s project could only be revived if its scientific and revolutionary novelty was thoroughly divested of all traces of humanism, idealism, Hegelianism and historicism. In order to complete this critical rereading, Althusser and his students at the École normale supérieure ran a seminar on Capital, re-examining its arguments, strengths and weaknesses in detail, and it was out of those discussions that this book was born.\n\nPreviously only available in English in highly abridged form, this edition, appearing fifty years after its original publication in France, restores chapters by Roger Establet, Pierre Macherey and Jacques Rancière. It includes a major new introduction by Étienne Balibar.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 178478141X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.178478141X.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Althusser, Louis|Ranciere, Jacques|Establet, Roger|Macherey, Pierre|Balibar, Etienne\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
