Critical Revolutionary Praxis in the Neoliberal University

Abstract

I would like to begin with some reflections on the theme of this double issue of Works and Days and Cultural Logic, Transforming Praxis in and beyond the University . The phrase, “transforming praxis,” which obviously refers to Marx’s work, is a pleonasm. For Marx, all praxis is transformative, although the object and mode of transformation varies in the two kinds of praxis he describes.
