Description
Andy Blunden's Hegel Marx & Vygotsky, Essays in Social Philosophy presents a novel approach to social theory in a series of essays. By combining the cultural psychology of Lev Vygotsky with the ideas of Soviet Activity Theorists, Blunden aims to renew Hegelian Marxism as an interdisciplinary science. This allows psychologists and social theorists to share their insights through concepts that are equally valid in either domain. The work includes critical reviews of the works of central figures in Soviet psychology and other writers offering fruitful insights. Blunden tests out the interdisciplinary power of the theory on a range of topics, including vaccine scepticism and the origins of language, as well as key texts on historical analysis, methodology and the nature of the present conjuncture.
