What is From Marxism to Agrarian Populism (via the Cultural Turn) about?
xii Acknowledgements Special thanks are due to the following people. To Professor David Fasenfest, the Series Editor, for encouragement; to Debbie de Wit, Jennifer Obdam and Judy Pereira of Brill publishers, who guided the book through production; and to my daughter Anna Luisa Brass, who designed and drew the cover illustration. She not only drew the cover for five previous books -New Farmers' Movements in India (1995), Labour Regime Change in the Twenty-First Century (2011), Class, Culture and the Agrarian Myth (2014), Labour Markets, Identities, Controversies (2017), and Revolution and Its Alternatives (2019) -but also did the drawings which appear at the start of each section in the present volume. The cover and subsequent illustrations refer to the theoretical maze in which Marxism currently finds itself, and from which it is trying to exit whilst at the same time remaining epistemologically intact. Symbolized thereby is the endeavour by Marxist political economy to extricate itself from mistaken attempts to conflate it with the cultural turn, identity politics, bourgeois economics, or varieties of populism and nationalism, together with the danger of not doing so.
