Politics And Philosophy: Niccolo Machiavelli And Louis Althusser's Aleatory Materialism

Viac o knihe

"Seeking to challenge the prevailing views on Althusser through examining his interpretation of Machiavelli, Lahtinen argues that existing scholarship has approached this topic solely from a philosophical perspective, excluding politics altogether. The main argument is that, for Althusser, it was essential to reflect on how a conjunctural understanding of history could offer a theoretical starting point for political strategy."--Pub. desc
