Following this is a discussion of various issues in class analysis, with particular attention being paid to two overarching themes: class and inequality, and the relationship between class and power.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe second section of the book engages the problem of socialism as a possible future to capitalism. Wright attempts to clarify the conceptual status of socialism, and discusses why certain reforms such as basic income grants may ultimately require the introduction of some form of socialism for their full realization.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eInterrogating Inequality\u003c\/i\u003e concludes by examining the general problem of Marxism as a tradition of radical social theory. Three issues in particular are discussed: the central principles of “analytical Marxism” as a strategy for reconstructing Marxism as a social scientific theory; the relationship between Marxism and feminism as emancipatory social theories; and the prospects for Marxism in the aftermath of the collapse of communist regimes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Verso Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48129758986480,"sku":"9780860916338","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780860916338_p0.jpg?v=1763833076","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780860916338","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
