Rethinking Marx and History

摘要

The papers collected together in this Special Issue of Science & Society constitute, in large part, the proceedings of a one-day conference of the Marxism Specialist Group of the UK Political Studies Association, held in 2003. It was decided to mark the 25th anniversary of the publication of G. A. Cohen's Karl Marx's Theory of History: A Defence by devoting the conference to a re-examination of this seminal work. We are grateful to Professor Cohen for participating in the conference and for his written and verbal responses to the papers.
