Abstract:
The structural Marxism of Althusser has been developed in reaction to two kinds of interpretation of Marx and his reading. Althusser first confronted against the method of Marxism orthodoxy and raised an analytical criticism about it; the second method which has been the object of criticism by Althusser was the Hegelistic Marxism and the circle of Frankfurt. He tried to give a tip-off in regard to the theory of Marxism, the theory of economical determinism, and the humanism method of Lucas as well as the circle of Frankfurt. The effort of Althusser in regard to the reductionism of Marxism theory was successful in a certain degree. However, his modification was mostly internal and has not saved the essence of the theory of Marxism in its fundamental boundaries in the field of ontology, epistemology, anthropology, and methodology. In this piece of writing we tried to reveal the assessment and the fundamental points related to the view and the bases of the theory in regard to the sociological view of Louis Althusser.
