Gordon, coauthor of 'Authoritarianism: Three Inquiries in Critical Theory' *\u003cbr\u003e“\u003ci\u003eWhen Spinoza Met Marx \u003c\/i\u003eis essential reading. It fills a gap in the history of European Spinozism, and it provides a new context for the histories of Marxism and socialism—one that it is crucial to understand as scholars and political actors seek to adapt Marxist frameworks to ongoing matters of social and environmental justice. It also provides a new intellectual history of nineteenth-century German political thought that is truly innovative in its approach.” * Knox Peden, author of 'Spinoza Contra Phenomenology: French Rationalism from Cavaillès to Deleuze' *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbbreviations, Citational Shortcuts, and a Note on Translation\u003cbr\u003e Preface\u003cbr\u003e Introduction: When Spinoza Met Marx, or Activity in a Nonhumanist Key\u003cbr\u003e Chapter 1.
