Beskrivelse
"Structure, Agency and Theory" offers a fresh critique of Marx and Engels' take on historical materialism, questioning their idea of the dialectic between forces and production relations as the driving force behind historical change.
An exploration of historical materialism focusing on the dynamic between social conditions and individual agency.
This book challenges traditional interpretations of Marx and Engels by arguing that their concept of the dialectic of forces and relations of production as the engine of historical development is both questionable and overly deterministic.
Instead, it highlights another core idea within historical materialism: the interaction between social circumstances and human agency as the true driving force of history. Emphasizing the role of agents' experiences as a causal factor, the author explores its potential for explaining historical events.
The book also considers the strategic consequences of this perspective for revolutionary socialism, aiming to clarify how focusing on agency and social context can reshape our understanding of historical change and political action.
