The Schema of the Theory of Reification

Exploring the transition from Marx's self-alienation to the concept of reification, Wataru Hiromatsu presents a relational worldview that remains pertinent today. He emphasizes the dynamic interplay between individuals and their relationships with others and nature, framing this as the "single science of history" proposed by Marx and Engels. His work critiques the entrenched subject-object dichotomy, offering innovative insights that aim to reshape contemporary understanding of societal interactions. This English edition makes his influential ideas accessible for the first time.
