Marxism, History, and Intellectuals: Toward a Reconceptualized, Transformative Socialism

This book discusses that area of socialist political philosophy that is devoted to conceiving and allocating a role to the intellectual and a reconceptualization of transformative socialism. It examines constructions of intellectuals in different socialist philosophies, with their distinct notions of history. Finally, it offers reflections on the role of intellectuals after the 1960s, ponders the potential and pragmatics of transformative socialist politics in our time, and proposes a purposive egalitarian commitment.
