Évaluation du livre

En savoir plus sur le livre

To understand the place occupied by Nicos Poulantzas and the void he fills, one must read and reread "Political Power and Social Classes." Nicos Poulantzas defines state power as "a totality of social relations." Through his studies on modern state - capitalist state - power concerning classes, he has made significant contributions to Marxism and political theory. Poulantzas's work describes how the modern state integrates the social body (laws, organization of laws, cultural life and its organization, education) with the individual body (state violence, citizenship rights, law, language, healthcare). "Political Power and Social Classes" undertakes the task of ending the sanctification of power and the state in capitalist society. However, the true value of this book lies in its answers to the question of how political theory should be evaluated as a science.
