Dialectics and Contemporary Politics (eBook, PDF)

Critique and Transformation from Hegel through Post-Marxism

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Dialectics and Contemporary Politics develops a full theory of dialectics in order to reset the terms of dialectical critique and affirm its ability to produce radical insights about contemporary society.
