Details:
In Marxism and the Open Mind, John Lewis seeks to explain Marxism as a system of thought. He addresses the studied neglect or grotesque misrepresentation that he feels characterizes Western attitudes toward Marxism. Lewis aims to stimulate a long-overdue re-evaluation of Marxism in light of contemporary thought in 1957, during the height of the Cold War era.
The essays include chapters on human rights, a discussion on Marxism and liberty, and Marxist ethics—an often-neglected theme in 1950s thought. Lewis tackles some of the most deeply felt criticisms of Marxism from that period. The ethical aspects of Marxism are revisited in a contribution to the debate on Marxism and religion. The volume concludes with essays on Berdyaev and Sartre, examining the Marxist interpretation of these thinkers, as well as an essay on Marxist humanism.
The essays offer a wide-ranging exploration of Marxism, uniting a close and sympathetic study of the ideology with a critical judgment grounded in Lewis' academic background and Christian ministry experience.
