Alfred Sohn-Rethels Intellectual and Manual Labour stands as a pivotal work in the realm of post-war Marxist theory, exerting a profound impact on the central figures of the Frankfurt School. Its enduring relevance to contemporary discussions surrounding value, abstraction, and dominance renders Sohn-Rethels ideas particularly compelling. This Historical Materialism edition, long out of print, presents Sohn-Rethels ideas in their fullest expanse and with utmost theoretical lucidity. Additionally, it includes a fresh introduction by Chris OKane, an afterword by Chris Arthur, and a compilation of responses to Intellectual and Manual Labour published in the Italian journal Lotta Continua. This compilation features a substantial article by Antonio Negri, further enriching the understanding and analysis of this influential text.
