«Marxism, Pluralism and Beyond» is the social and political theory essay by Gregor McLennan, published by Polity in paperback (250 pages, in English).
The book examines two central traditions of social and political theory, Marxism and pluralism, and asks whether their relationship tends towards progressive convergence. McLennan analyses the conceptual and empirical changes in each current since their classical formulations and traces the sociological, philosophical and political debates between them. The question of social class shows the challenges of Marxism, while pluralists must recognise structural divisions such as class, race and gender. It also addresses whether the debate has been superseded by postmodern thought.
The full title declared by some suppliers is «Marxism, Pluralism and Beyond: Classic Debates and New Departures», a subtitle that does not appear on the analysed cover.
Aimed at readers of social theory, sociology and political science, as well as university students with an interest in Marxism and pluralism.
