Conclusion: Politician and Theorist. 330 $aWorldwide political changes since 1990 have driven a re-evaluation of Marxism, a renaissance in Marx-studies, and a renewed interest in his lifelong intellectual partner and personal friend Friedrich Engels. In Terrell Carver?s 30th anniversary edition of his pioneering biographical study of the ?junior partner? ? which still remains the only one to balance Engels?s pre-Marx, with-Marx, and post-Marx writings, giving a rounded view of his life and thought ? Carver adopts a comparative and critical approach, neither taking the ?perfect partnership? as a given, nor presuming that all the intellectual fireworks were Marx?s. Engels?s famously ?bourgeois? class position and ?champagne socialist? lifestyle emerge as resolutions rather than contradictions ? they provided opportunities for activist writing and politicking that would not otherwise occur. This study is driven by questions that readers might like to ask about Engels, rather than by the sheer weight of archival materials and stereotypical framing. A newly written introduction provides reflections on how politics since the 1990s has brought Marx, Engels, and Marxisms back to life, and how publication of the Marx-Engels ?collected works? in a definitive edition, and in English translation, have promoted interpretive innovation. Engels himself did his best to establish his own biographical narrative. This book enables readers to assess that dominating view for themselves. Terrell Carver is a Professor of Political Theory at the University of Bristol, UK. 410 0$aMarx, Engels, and Marxisms,$x2524-7131 606 $aWorld politics 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aPolitical science$xPhilosophy 606 $aPolitical History 606 $aPolitical Theory 606 $aPolitical Philosophy 615 0$aWorld politics. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aPolitical science$xPhilosophy. 615 14$aPolitical History. 615 24$aPolitical Theory. 615 24$aPolitical Philosophy. 676 $a335.411 676 $a335.4092 700 $aCarver$b Terrell$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0254525 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483439903321 996 $aThe Life and Thought of Friedrich Engels$92572480 997 $aUNINA
