Western Marxism by Domenico Losurdo
A wide-ranging critique of a current of Marxist thought that arose in Western Europe and North America, this work traces how intellectuals moved away from classical, materialist, and party-based conceptions of socialism toward cultural, existential, and anti‑Soviet emphases; it argues that that shift produced a form of Marxism preoccupied with subjectivity, aesthetics, and critique rather than working‑class organization and historical materialism, and contends that many Western Marxist positions reflect ideological accommodations to liberal and bourgeois perspectives while failing to grapple fairly with the Soviet experience and the complexities of socialist practice.
