Essays include critiques of Lukacs by Gareth Stedman Jones and Michael Lowy; a survey of the Frankfurt School by Goran Therborn; an assessment of the legacy of Gramsci, by John Merrington; exposition and criticism of the work of Sartre by Andre Gorz and Ronald Aronson; major assessments of Althusser by Norman Geras and Andre Glucksmann and a wide-ranging interview with the Italian philosopher Lucio Colletti that provides an overview of Western Marxism.
