Description
Louis Althusser's On the Reproduction of Capitalism offers a radical rethinking of the subject, the state, and the frameworks of cultural, political, and literary theory. This influential text, now available in English, challenges our understanding of society and the conditions of reproduction in capitalist systems. Written in the aftermath of May 1968, On the Reproduction of Capitalism addresses a pressing question: how do societies that claim to value liberty and equality continue to reproduce relations of domination? This conceptually innovative text provides a key theoretical tool for understanding the revolutionary struggle against capitalist systems. A crucial addition to the corpus of twentieth-century Left thought, On the Reproduction of Capitalism is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the underlying structures of power and ideology in contemporary society.
