Beskrivning
While the explicit Althusserian engagement with Marx’s Capital remained largely limited to Reading Capital, after 1968, Nick Nesbitt argues, this theoretical intervention remained insistent, adopting the form of a general theory of materialist dialectic. The book thus analyzes the Althusserianist theory of a materialist dialectic across diverse sites including Althusser’s unpublished archive, Macherey’s exposition of Spinoza’s Ethics, and Badiou’s Logics of Worlds, while simultaneously bringing this fully-developed theory of materialist dialectic to bear anew on the reading of Capital itself, to show that Spinoza's influence on Marx is far greater--and that of Hegel increasingly diminishing--than has been previously thought.

Recensioner i media

Nick Nesbitt’s Reading Capital’s Materialist Dialectic is a major contribution to the literature on Spinozist Marxism, to our understanding of the stakes of Althusser’s theoretical intervention, and to debates about rationalist epistemology more generally. Theoretically daring and impeccably written, it offers a substantial and important reinterpretation of Marx’s dialectical method in Capital.– Nathan Brown, Concordia University, author of Rationalist Empiricism
