The Crises of Marxism in Post-Positivist Perspective

University of Massachusetts Medical Center, Worcester, MA 01655

Drawing on post-positivist discourse within the philosophy of science, this paper argues that the phenomenon known as the "crisis of Marxism" is really two distinct phenomena. One is a crisis internal to the irregular series of theories identified with Marxism, a crisis marked by a partial degeneration of the research program, a slowing in its problem-solving effectiveness. The other is a crisis in the community bound by the Marxist disciplinary matrix.
