Karel Kosík, a renowned philosopher and thinker, gained widespread recognition for his groundbreaking work, "Dialectics of the Concrete," which was first published in Czechoslovakia in 1963. Kosík's philosophy, which has been reintroduced to English-speaking readers, is of immense importance not only as a significant intellectual document of the Prague Spring but also as a unique theoretical contribution with global impact. It sheds light on various aspects of human existence, including labor and praxis, cognition and economic structure, revolution, and the crises of modernity. The book features contributions from a diverse range of scholars, including Ian Angus, Siyaves Azeri, Vit Bartos, Jan Černy, Joseph Grim Feinberg, Diana Fuentes, Gabriella Fusi, Tomas Hermann, Tomas Hřibek, Xiaohan Huang, Peter Hudis, Petr Kužel, Ivan Landa, Michael Lowy, Jan Mervart, Anselm K. Min, Tom Rockmore, Francesco Tava, and Xinruo Zhang.
