In this volume, Marburg disciple Lothar Peter traces the school 's history and situates it in the political discourse and developments of its time. The renowned political scientist Wolfgang Abendroth plays a large role, but unlike most histories of the Marburg School Peter also takes the sociologists Werner Hofmann and Heinz Maus into account as well as their many students and successors. They were united by the conviction that teaching and scholarship must necessarily be tied to the practical goal of transforming society -- an approach that met with considerable opposition in the harshly anti-Communist atmosphere of the period.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis book was first published in 2014 as Marx an die Uni.
