The Schema of the Theory of Reification Paperback / softback

Part of the Historical Materialism series

Paperback / softback

Description

Available for the first time in English, Wataru Hiromatsu's Schema of the Theory of Reification argues that the change from Marx's theory of self-alienation to the concept of reification is crucial in establishing a new relational worldview which is still relevant today.

Amongst other topics, his discussion of the understanding of society sees such things as a relational dynamic wherein the individual is constantly composed and composing in relation to others, including nature.

This understanding is, he argues, the "single science of history" of Marx and Engels.

This innovation offers a way to overcome the hypostasizing subject - object relation still so prevalent today. Originally published in Japanese as Busshokaron no kozu by Iwanami Shoten, Publishers, Tokyo, 1983, 1994. © By Kuniko Hiromatsu.
