In his last years, Karl Marx (1818-83) sketched three types of revolutionary change, each of them different from the united working class uprising that forms the conclusion of the first volume of Capital. Important as that rigorously dialectical, though abstract model is, it does not deal with race, colonialism, gender, the state, or other concrete factors discussed in some of his other writings, especially his late – largely unpublished – writings.
Dr. Kevin Anderson is the author, co-author, or co-editor of sixteen books, many of them on the history of Marxist thought. Access his full bio (external link) .
