If so, what are these and how do they shift across his writings and inform his critical theory of capitalist society? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eMarx and the Critique of Humanism\u003c\/i\u003e addresses these questions through a diverse collection of critical interventions from leading Marxist scholars. These contributions offer both a renewed appraisal and contextualisation of the notion of 'the human' across Marx's \u003ci\u003eoeuvre\u003c\/i\u003e, as well as a range of critical perspectives on the status of humanism within critical social theory today. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book revaluates Marx's relation to humanism by examining the intellectual context, influences and interlocutors which shaped his theoretical commitments and critical methodology; the concept of '\u003ci\u003eGattungswesen\u003c\/i\u003e' in Marx's early writings; the ways in which 'the human' informs and is transformed by Marx's critique of political economy; the ecological dimensions of Marx's thought; the reception of Marx's humanism by anti-colonial thinkers; and the relation of Marx's thought to post-structuralist and post-humanist critiques of enlightenment humanism. Moving beyond the simplistic picture of a 'humanistic' early Marx and a 'scientific' late Marx, this volume shows instead how a sustained concern with the human evolves in tandem with Marx's broader intellectual development.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andres Saenz de Sicilia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350526355\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350526358\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/19\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 230\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d","brand":"Andres Saenz de Sicilia","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48449506279679,"sku":"9781350526358","price":115.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_35618be2-e7b4-412f-9829-cb88d8af286f.jpg?v=1777263691","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/marx-and-the-critique-of-andres-saenz-de-sicilia-9781350526358","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
