Ethical Marxism and Its Radical Critics

More about the book

Focusing on Marx's view of human essence, the book presents it as the basis for an ethic of liberation within his social theory, influenced by Greek philosophy. Wilde discusses the development of this humanistic ethic through thinkers like Marcuse and Fromm, while also addressing critiques from Habermas and Gorz, as well as feminist and ecological perspectives. Revised to incorporate these criticisms, it provides insights into advancing towards a socialist ethical community.
