The collapse of socialism didn't deter the Marxists, who moved on to invent new rationales for their system. But David Gordon has caught up with them, and used the knife of the Austrian School to cut their theories to pieces. A masterful demonstration of philosophical technique. The book in particular addresses the arguments of the analytical Marxists: G.A. Cohen, Jon Elster, and John Roemer.
The contents of this volume include:
- Introduction
- The Classical Marxist Assault on Capitalism
- The Analytical Marxist Rejection of Classical Marxism
- Analytical Marxism versus Libertarian Rights
- Cohen on Proletarian Unfreedom
