| book description |

This book reconstructs the concept of the individual in Marx as the key to a fresh interpretation of Marxian philosophy. Marx moved from an examination of the contingency and indeterminacy of individual consciousness in his early years to a critique of the atomistic individual and materialised social relations in his later years. His thought proposes that â€˜real individualsâ€™ are the basis for an understanding of human society that promotes the emancipation of humankind. Marxâ€™s philosophy has often been misunderstood as lacking a concept of the individual. In China, this misunderstanding not only relates to cultural and linguistic particularities (the word â€˜individualâ€™ is seldom used in Chinese), but also relates to a misleading view of socialism and communism. This book helps remedy this misunderstanding and draws important comparisons and contrasts between Marxâ€™s concept of the individual with that of liberalism, and between Western and Eastern Marxism.
