Neo-Marxism: Difference between revisions

Overall, Neo-Marxism is a broad ideology and umbrella term for a diverse range of heterodox Marxist ideologies, philosophies and schools of thought, including [[File:Eco-marxism.png]] [[mh:philosophyball:Eco-Marxism|Eco-Marxism]], [[File:Situ.png]] [[Situationism]], [[File:StructMarx.png]] [[mh:philosophyball:Structural Marxism|Structural Marxism]], [[File:Marxfem.png]] [[Marxist Feminism]], [[File:Analytical Marxism.png]] [[mh:philosophyball:Analytic Marxism|Analytic Marxism]], [[File:PostMarxism.png]] [[mh:philosophyball:Post-Marxism|Post-Marxism]], [[File:Continental.png]] Western Marxism, [[File:HegelMarx.png]] [[mh:philosophyball:Hegelian Marxism|Hegelian Marxism]], [[File:FreudCom.png]] [[mh:philosophyball:Freudo-Marxism|Freudo-Marxism]], [[File:Frankfurt.png]] [[Frankfurt School|the Frankfurt School]], [[File:Neo-Wolffism.png]] Neo-Marxian Economics, [[File:Auton.png]] [[Autonomism]], and many others.

As with many uses of the prefix neo-, some theorists and groups who are designated as neo-Marxists have attempted to supplement the perceived deficiencies of orthodox Marxism or dialectical materialism. Many prominent neo-Marxists, such as Herbert Marcuse and other members of the Frankfurt School, have historically been sociologists and psychologists.

Neo-Marxists often philosophically synthesis Marxism with other schools of thought as well, usually continental philosophy. Post-Modernism, Structuralism and Post-Structuralism, [[File:Nihil.png]] [[mh:philosophyball:Nihilism|Nihilism]] (especially active nihilism), Deconstruction, psychoanalytic theory, branches of Hegelian and Freudian thought as well as many others have all influenced different modern Marxists and their theories which fall under the umbrella of neo-Marxism.

Neo-Marxism developed as a result of social and political problems that traditional Marxist theory was unable to sufficiently address. This iteration of thinking tended toward peaceful ideological dissemination, rather than the revolutionary, and often violent, methods of the past. Economically, neo-Marxist leaders moved beyond the era of public outcry over class warfare and attempted to design viable models to solve it.

There are many different branches of neo-Marxism often not in agreement with each other and their theories. Following World War I, some neo-Marxists dissented and later formed the Frankfurt School. The Frankfurt School never identified themselves as neo-Marxists. Toward the end of the 20th century, neo-Marxism and other Marxist theories became anathema in democratic and capitalistic Western cultures, where the term attained negative connotations during the Red Scare. For this reason, social theorists of the same ideology since that time have tended to disassociate themselves from the term neo-Marxism. Examples of such thinkers include David Harvey and Jacque Fresco, with some ambiguity surrounding Noam Chomsky, who has been labelled a neo-Marxist by some, but who personally disagrees with such assessments. Some consider [[File:Libsoc.png]] [[Libertarian Socialism|libertarian socialism]] an example of rebranded neo-Marxism.
