Description

Alien Politics retrieves from Marx's original writings a theory of the state that remains viable and relevant to contemporary political analysis. Paul Thomas traces how Marx's conception of the state as an instrument of the capitalist ruling class became transformed into communist dogma under Lenin and other official Marxist theorists. The book argues that Marx's writings offer enduring insights for modern political thought and should not be dismissed alongside the collapsed monuments of twentieth-century communism. This accessible examination separates Marx's actual theoretical contributions from their later ideological interpretations, making it essential reading for students and scholars of political theory, Marxism, and the history of communist thought.
