The book chronicles the way Marx’s awareness evolved in consonance with human needs. From a youngster reflecting on the otherworldly oeuvres of Hegel or Proudhon, to raising his voice in sociology and philosophy, to laying the role of innovator in political economy, to taking a stance as a revolutionary, historiographer and anthropologist, Marx’s contributions re-dimension final abstraction. Only Marx’s and Engels’s wholesome, dynamic and practical philosophy captured the gist of the events that occurred at the onset of the 20th Century. The book dissects the post-Marxists perspectives on the sequence observation-abstraction-concreteness of Ilyenkov, Lukács, the Western Marxists, Sohn-Rethel, Postone, Wolff, or Oliva et al., etc. Such respects as transition, implementation and political economy-on the dyad labour-capital-are scrutinised apropos their elaborate concreteness. This Marx finding illuminates such notions as the equality and growth of income or liberty -obscurity sustains exploitation. Subtly, the book tells how Marx’s concreteness may sustain new slants facing recurring crises.
