Aprašymas

Flagging enrollments. Disappearing majors. Closed departments. The academic study of religion is in trouble. This volume argues that Karl Marx is essential for reversing course--but this requires letting go of what most scholars think they know about him.

The book's first half draws on the scholarship of international specialists--as well as new translations of the original German texts--to present Marx the political journalist. The second half appeals to this revised portrait and charts a new course beyond both "actually existing" religious studies and contemporary genealogies of the "religion" category.
