In this book she sets out to renew the critical programme of historical materialism by redefining its basic concepts and its theory of history in original and imaginative ways, using them to identify the specificity of capitalism as a system of social relations and political power. She goes on to explore the concept of democracy in both the ancient and modern world, examining its relation to capitalism, and raising questions about how democracy might go beyond the limits imposed on it.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Law & PoliticsBook Series: Radical Thinkers Set 12Topic: Philosophy & Spirituality, Business & FinanceRelease Year: 2016 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
