Summary, etc. This challenging discussion of Marx's thought examines Marxism from a broad historical and cultural perspective, revealing it as a genuine and distinguished part of the European cultural heritage. R. N. Berki here locates certain enduring motifs encountered in the evolution of Western political thought, showing how Marxism's features arise out of the traditions it seeks to adapt and combine.<br/><br/>The argument is presented in the form of four extended lectures, proceeding chronologically. The first lecture, 'Conception', identifies two underlying trends in the European tradition - religious idealism and scientific realism which have jointly produced the standpoint of modernity shared by Marx. Following from this, 'Gestation' discusses modern liberal thought, highlighting some of the inherent tensions and contradictions which were passed on to Marxism. 'Formation' focuses attention on Marx's immediate forebears among the radical writers of the nineteenth century. Finally, 'Fruition' takes a close look at the gradual development of Marx's own thinking up to the writings of the young Marx in 1844.<br/><br/>At once informative and stimulating, The Genesis of Marxism will provide important illumination for students of history, philosophy, sociology and economics, as well as of international relations and politics.
