Abstract

Invested with canonical authority by Marx’s imprimatur, the historicist model contained in the Kaufman extracts has exerted great power over the Marxist tradition. This power can best be gauged by reviewing some citations from other authors. I do not want here to consider in detail any of the cited passages. I want simply to show by way of exemplification how the historicist model has in fact come to provide the norms of what we could call an entire methodological discourse: the norms, that is to say, of a sort of discourse about method, though not, I am suggesting, of any analytical discourse which actually employs the ‘method’ in question.
