POLT 239 - Marxian Theory

FC SSCI
4 credits
A survey of Marxian theory from Marx and Engels to the present. Following in-depth study of Marx and Engels, we proceed to leading Marxist thinkers and political activists of the early 20th century: Bernstein, Luxemburg, Kautsky, Lenin, and Gramsci. Finally we take up critical theory, Marxian feminism, Marxian environmentalism, crisis, and the future. Written work consists of two take-home open-book essays and weekly blogs. The course includes Monday and Wednesday lectures and discussion groups on Tuesday.
