Marx's Capital
An Illustrated Introduction David Smith, illustrated by Phil Evans [Marxs Capital: An Illustrated Introduction is] valuable and in some respects more so than all the interpretations and popularizations I have read. C.L.R. James [This illustrated introduction] is very, very good, a brilliant exposition and a really creative relationship between image and explanation. John Berger

Karl Marx did not write Capital for the bookshelves of economists and philosophers. Capital is economics for working people, from their viewpoint and history. David Smith and Phil Evans explode the myth of difficulty haunting Capital. David Smith is a sociologist whose publications include books on Orwell and the changing structure of the working class. Phil Evans is a longtime political cartoonist based in England. He has illustrated Understanding Economics, among many other books.

Historical Materialism Book Series


Editorial Board: Sbastien Budgen (Paris), Steve Edwards (London), Marcel van der Linden (Amsterdam), Peter Thomas (London) The capitalist crisis of the twenty-first century has been met by a resurgence of interest in critical Marxist theory. At the same time, the publishing institutions committed to Marxism have contracted markedly since the high point of the 1970s. The Historical Materialism book series is dedicated to addressing this situation by making available important works of Marxist theory. The aim of the series is to publish important theoretical contributions as the basis for vigorous intellectual debate and exchange on the left. The peer-reviewed series publishes original monographs, translated texts, and reprints of classics across the bounds of academic disciplinary agendas, and across the divisions of the left. The series is particularly concerned with encouraging the internationalization of Marxist debate, and aims to translate significant studies from beyond the English-speaking world. The Historical Materialism book series will expand significantly over the coming years with substantial and important books in all areas of Marxist theory. We are undertaking a project of publishing previously untranslated texts by Marx, long-unavailable debates from the Second and Third Internationals, and English editions of important studies from the postwar period. Equally significantly, we also aim to publish the work of the emerging generation of Marxist scholars and theorists.

Marxs Concept of the Alternative to Capitalism


Peter Hudis
A particular strength of Hudiss book is that it examines the full sweep of Marxs writings, rather than focusing on one particular text or period of Marxs life. No stone is left unturned in attempting to uncover the implicit conception of an alternative [vision to capitalism]. The scope of this allows him to include a number of texts which are often overlooked in this discussion and offer a number of novel interpretations of works usually discussed in different contexts. Dan Swain, Marx & Philosophy Review of Books In contrast to the traditional view that Marxs work is restricted to a critique of capitalismand that he consciously avoided any detailed conception of its alternativethis work shows that Marx was committed to a specific concept of a postcapitalist society which informed the whole of his approach to political economy. Instead of focusing on the present with only a passing reference to the future, Marxs emphasis on capitalisms tendency toward dissolution is rooted in a specific conception of what should replace it. Peter Hudis, Ph.D., is Professor of Humanities and Philosophy at Oakton Community College. He has published extensively on Marxist theory and is General Editor of The Complete Works of Rosa Luxemburg.

Gramscis Political Thought


Carlos Nelson Coutinho
[This publication] provides a wonderful opportunity to draw some attention to the debates on Gramsci in Latin America . . . and is an essential window through which to view debates in and beyond Brazil. Adam David Morton, For the Desk Drawer One of [its] strengths is its decisive and clear account of Gramscis own interpretation of Leninism as a living and vibrant practice, making no allowances for theoretical laziness and dogmatism. Coutinho endeavors to present Gramsci . . . as an ever-vigilant challenger to dogmatic approaches to Marxism. Chris Walsh, International Socialist Group Gramscis Political Thought offers an analysis of the evolution of the political thought of Antonio Gramsci. Focusing on central concepts of the Prison Notebooks and relating them to the history of modern political ideas, the book demonstrates that Gramscis ideas continue to be relevant resources for understanding the controversies of our present time. Written by a leading Brazilian Marxist theorist, this book provides one of the most succinct and theoretically focused introductions to the thought of Antonio Gramsci available internationally. Carlos Nelson Coutinho is the author of several books on political theory and editor of the Brazilian version of The Complete Works of Antonio Gramsci.

Marxism and the Oppression of Women


Toward a Unitary Theory Lise Vogel, introduction by Susan Ferguson and David McNally
Vogels book clarifies both the debate [between feminist and socialist theories] and the issues, and is a welcome contribution to the field. . . . I would recommend this book to anyone concerned with the theories of socialism or feminism. Whether one agrees with Vogel or not, one cannot help learning from her analysis. Carol Brown, Qualitative Sociology This book is a significant contribution to a heated debate . . . over the unhappy marriage of Marxism and feminism. Hester Eisenstein, Science & Society Nearly thirty years after its initial publication, Marxism and the Oppression of Women remains an essential contribution to the development of an integrative theory of gender oppression under capitalism. Lise Vogel revisits classical Marxian texts, tracking analyses of the woman question in socialist theory and drawing on central theoretical categories of Marxs Capital to open up an original theorization of gender and the social production and reproduction of material life. Includes Vogels article Domestic Labor Revisited, which extends and clarifies her main theoretical innovations. Lise Vogel, a veteran of the US civil rights and womens liberation movements, is Professor (retired) of Sociology at Rider University and the author of numerous books and articles. Before becoming a sociologist, she had an earlier career in art history. 5

Massimiliano Tomba This study provides a critical analysis of Marxs political and theoretical development. By integrating the paradigm of the spatialization of time with that of the temporalization of space, Tomba shows that an adequate historiographical paradigm for capitalism must consider the plurality of temporal layers that come into conflict in modernity.

Studies in Critical Social Sciences


Editor: David Fasenfest Modern capitalism began the twenty-first century seemingly victorious as the dominant social and economic organizing principle in the world. Rampant re- and de-regulation accompanied a wholesale attack on the social, economic, and political gains of the prior century under the guise of increasing competitiveness and the need to respond to the forces of globalization. The end of the Cold War, the decline of the former Soviet Union, and the increasing foothold of capitalism in China all point to an unchallenged reorientation of the global political economy to reflect this ascendence of capitalist social relations. The peer-reviewed Studies in Critical Social Sciences book series, through the publication of original manuscripts and edited volumes, offers insights into the current reality by exploring the content and consequence of power relationships under capitalism, by considering the spaces of opposition and resistance to these changes and by articulating capitalism with other systems of power and domination for example race, gender, culturethat have been defining our new age. Studies in Critical Social Science includes the subseries Studies in Critical Research on Religion and Critical Global Studies.

Faces of State Terrorism


Laura Westra
Terrorism, a widespread global phenomenon, manifests itself in the actions and the policies of individuals and groups, but also and primarily in the actions and policies of states. Delving into the seldom-discussed question of the motivation for most episodes of terrorism, this book studies terrorisms effects based on the economic and geopolitical imbalances that frame todays global governance. Many states hide their terrorist activities under the faces they show the world, masks intended to hide real aims of acquiring or expanding power and wealth. These activities, presented as self-defense, preventive action, counter-measures or even as promoting progress and development, are forms of state terrorism that are much more widespread, powerful, and destructive than the actions originating from groups labeled terrorist since 9/11. This book examines the numerous illegal measures states use, from unlawful imprisonment and curtailing of civil liberties to torture, in the name of responding to terrorism. Laura Westra, Ph.D. (1982) in Philosophy, University of Toronto, and Ph.D. (2005) in Law, Osgoode Hall Law School, currently teaches environmental law at the University of Windsor, international law at the University of Milano (Bicocca), and a graduate course on Environmental Studies for Royal Roads University in Victoria, British Columbia. She has published twenty-seven monographs and collections on environmental justice, human rights issues, and international law, and more than eighty-five articles and chapters.

Concepts
A Critical Approach Andy Blunden
Andy Blunden presents an interdisciplinary review of theories of concepts of interest to cognitive psychology, analytic philosophy, linguistics, and the history of science. Problems within these disciplines establishing reductive theories of the conceptual have led some to abandon concepts altogether in favor of interactionist or narrowly pragmatic approaches. Blunden responds with an account of the development of the theory of concepts from Descartes through Hegelwith special focus on the latters critical appropriation by early critical social scienceculminating in the cultural psychology of Lev Vygotsky. He then proposes an approach to concepts which draws on activity theory, according to which concepts are equally subjective and objective: both units of consciousness and of the cultural formation of which ones consciousness is part. This continues the authors earlier work in An Interdisciplinary Theory of Activity (Haymarket, 2011). Andy Blunden is an independent scholar in Melbourne, Australia. He works with the Independent Social Research Network and the Melbourne School of Continental Philosophy. His Interdisciplinary Theory of Activity was published by Haymarket in 2011.
