A classic work of Marxist analysis, available unabridged for the first time
Originally published in 1965, Reading Capital is a landmark of French thought and radical theory, which sought to reconstruct Western Marxism from its foundations. Previously only available in English in a highly abridged form, this 50th anniversary edition restores original chapters by Roger Establet, Pierre Macherey and Jacques Rancière, accompanied by a major new introduction by Etienne Balibar on the book's continued impact. France's greatest philosophers scrutinize many of the most fundamental points in Marx's iconic text to reveal its philosophical core.
