Carlos L. Garrido, a philosophy instructor and PhD candidate at Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, has curated a unique anthology focused on philosophical Marxism (Dialectical and Historical Materialism) that stands out for its comprehensive coverage of the dialectical method. Garrido, also an activist in the U.S. socialist movement and a co-founder and editor of Midwestern Marx and the Journal of American Socialist Studies, has delved into the works of classic Marxist thinkers such as Marx, Engels, Lenin, as well as their influential followers Stalin and Mao. Additionally, he has included selections from thinkers like Plekhanov, Bukharin, Bernal, Haldane, Olgin, and Ilyenkov, who were informed by this classical Marxist tradition.
The introduction to the anthology offers a thorough systematization of the dialectical materialist worldview, providing readers with a foundational understanding of the philosophy. These selected works serve as a core representation of Dialectical Materialism, aiming to equip students with the tools to apply its principles to contemporary political, economic, and social challenges. This anthology is not merely for passive readers seeking to learn about reality; it is designed for individuals committed, as Marx emphasized, to actively changing the world.
In conclusion, Garrido's anthology stands as one of the few exceptional collections focusing on philosophical Marxism, offering a deep dive into the dialectical method and the core tenets of Dialectical Materialism. Through this anthology, readers are encouraged to engage critically with Marxist thought and apply its insights to the pressing issues of our time.
