It moves from his youthful Trotskyism on to his book on Rosa Luxemburg, then his classic account of Marx and human nature, and his highly regarded discussion of Marx and justice. Following this, Geras tried to elaborate a Marxist theory of justice, which involved taking on-board aspects of liberalism. Next he attacked the post modernism of Laclau and Mouffe and criticised Rorty's pragmatism, and then elaborated a contract of mutual indifference from a detailed study of the Holocaust. Lastly he wrote a book on human rights and humanitarian intervention, defending the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Cowling varies from exposition and admiration, to ideas about how Geras's work should be interpreted, to criticism of his Trotskyism and of his support for the invasion of Iraq. The book will appeal to readers interested in Norman Geras and Marxism in particular, and social and political theory in general. 000939809 588__ $$aVendor-supplied metadata. 000939809 60010 $$aGeras, Norman,$$d1943-2013$$xCriticism and interpretation. 000939809 60010 $$aGeras, Norman,$$d1943-2013$$xPolitical and social views. 000939809 650_0 $$aPolitical science$$zGreat Britain$$y20th century. 000939809 650_0 $$aCommunism. 000939809 650_0 $$aHuman rights. 000939809 650_0 $$aPolitical science. 000939809 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319740478 000939809 852__ $$bebk 000939809 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-74048-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000939809 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:939809$$pGLOBAL_SET 000939809 980__ $$aEBOOK 000939809 980__ $$aBIB 000939809 982__ $$aEbook 000939809 983__ $$aOnline 000939809 994__ $$a92$$bISE
