In this article we intend to analyze central aspects of Moishe Postone’s thinking, in special some ideas of his book Time, Labor and Social Domination (1993). Postone is an original historian and thinker in critical social theory, whose researches undertake to reinterpret Karl Marx, particularly the mature Marx of the Grundrisse. According to Postone, traditional Marxism has proven historically unable to perceive the distinctions between value and wealth as well as distribution and consumption. Moreover, Postone’s critical theory proposes an understanding of domination that differs considerably from traditional Marxism’s, posing significant challenges for contemporary social theory.Downloads
