"After a period of drought in serious Marx scholarship, the
publication of Rockmore's book, at once so well informed and so
informative in both philosophical and historical terms, is a marker
event. It makes a strong and clear case, by means of a careful
survey of Marx's own texts, for resituating him in the tradition of
German idealism and separating him from the accrued excess baggage
of later 'Marxisms." William L. McBride, Purdue University
"The decline of communism has been accompanied by a decline in
interest in Marx. Rockmore's Marx After Marxism is the
beginning of a new assessment of Marx that will help reverse that
trend. The book's overall stance concerns what Marx got out of
Hegel at different times in his own development. Rockmore also
gives a fine account of Marx's main work in political economy,
especially the central ideas of Capital; this is where any
Marx revival should focus in providing a critique of our own
society." Robert Nola, University of Auckland
