Should Marx Be Separated From Engels Theortically? Michael Roberts’ Take

Over the last 50 years some on the left, beginning with the Frankfurt School, attempted to separate Engels from Marx.

His works on science have been attacked for trying to move Marxism from theory-practice politics to a cosmological system which includes nature. We agree with Michael Roberts’ view that these criticisms are wrong. Check out Michael talk.
