Summary of the Book
After being widely rejected in the late 20th century the work of Karl Marx is now being
reassessed by many theorists and activists. Karl Marx, Anthropologist explores how this
most influential of modern thinkers is still highly relevant for Anthropology today.
Marx was profoundly influenced by critical Enlightenment thought. He believed that
humans were social individuals that simultaneously satisfied and forged their needs in
the contexts of historically particular social relations and created cultures. Marx
continually refined the empirical, philosophical, and practical dimensions of his
anthropology throughout his lifetime.
Assessing key concepts, from the differences between class-based and classless
societies to the roles of exploitation, alienation and domination in the making of social
individuals, Karl Marx, Anthropologist is an essential guide to Marx's anthropological
thought for the 21st century.
