A Marxist Reading of Young Baudrillard

Více o knize

Focusing on early Baudrillard's influential works, the author challenges prevailing interpretations of his philosophical evolution. Zhang Yibing, a prominent third-generation Marxist philosopher from China, employs a unique reading methodology to argue that Baudrillard's writings defy classification as either postmodernist or neo-Marxist. He highlights Baudrillard's critical stance towards Marxism, particularly in "The Mirror of Production," which seeks to dismantle Marxist theories from within, a perspective often overlooked by Marxist scholars.
