'Historical Materialism provides exactly what is needed today: a 
Marxist antidote to postmodern and similar fashions. It is one of the 
few journals in English actually turned towards the future - one of the 
few journals in which a progressive theorist can publish without 
secretly feeling ashamed!'
Slavoj Zizek

--


Historical Materialism seeks to reappropriate and refine the classical
Marxist tradition for emancipatory purposes. It promotes a genuine and 
open
dialogue between individuals working in different traditions of Marxism 
and
encourages an interdisciplinary, international debate between 
researchers
and academics. Historical Materialism sees itself as encouraging a new
generation of Marxist writers and researchers. Future issues will focus 
on
Africa, fantasy, the visual arts, Empire, anticapitalism, film, 
dialectics,
the American working class, modes of production, sexuality and 
postcolonial
fascism.

Why Historical Materialism now?
It is fourteen years since the implosion of ‘historical communism’ and 
the triumphal proclamation of capitalism as the natural terminus of 
world history. As neo-liberal strategies continue their work of global 
accumulation and exploitation, the invincibility of the world market 
has been assumed by all sides of the political spectrum. But while this 
new global order is thus marked by an unprecedented unity of 
appearance, in reality sharp differences and deepening inequalities 
persist, both between states and within societies. For the world today 
is increasingly driven by the political, economic and social 
contradictions which capitalist development brings in its wake. To 
those on the margins of the world economy, the effects of being left 
out are devastating: poverty, starvation and civil war are widespread. 
Meanwhile in the advanced countries, the pursuit of global competition 
for investment and the related internal restructuring of the state have 
discredited even moderate Keynesian policies and social reformism. 
Thus, despite the production of ever greater surplus wealth, the 
numbers of those in poverty keep growing; and the vast majority remain 
excluded from any meaningful power. And yet against this backdrop, 
capitalism itself has been absolved of responsibility, and there has 
been a retreat from any fundamental critique. One of the most effective 
arguments in the hands of political and economic elates in enforcing 
domestically unpopular policies is that international, ‘globalising’ 
capitalism has become our ‘fate’ in a qualitatively new sense. It is 
this disabling eclipse of social imagination, manifested in the almost 
universal assumption of a continuing capitalist future that Historical 
Materialism seeks to counter.

Theoretical orientation Motivated by a vision of society free of 
exploitation and domination, the journal sets out from the conviction 
that classical Marxism provides the richest framework for analysing the 
making and unmaking of social phenomena. Its aim is to build upon that 
tradition, drawing on and debating the diverse contributions of its 
various strands. We believe that the explanatory power of classical 
Marxism derives above all from two key elements. The first of these 
elements is the epistemology of the Theses on Feuerbach, especially its 
unity of theory and practice. Marx famously said that ‘philosophers 
have only interpreted the world, the point is to change it’. In other 
words, the most incisive interpretations of the world are those which 
are harnessed to practical efforts to transform it. The second key 
element is Marxism’s recognition of the centrality of class relations 
and social struggle which result from historically specific modes of 
surplus appropriation and domination. The key to understanding history 
lies in relating the systemic forces inherent in capitalist and other 
class societies, with the experiences of their agents. From this 
dialectical antagonism of subject and object arises historical change. 
Aware of the deformations and instrumentalisations of Marxism, we 
believe that Marx’s dictum in the Eighteenth Brumaire that ‘the 
tradition of all the dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the 
brains of the living’ must be critically applied to Marxism itself as 
an intellectual and political tradition. Far from being a theoretical 
monolith, Marxism is necessarily an object of continuing debate, a 
debate fuelled by the ever-changing subjective experiences of people in 
differing social contexts, and contingent on the objective logic of 
production and reproduction as embedded in specific social relations. 
We propose that the regeneration of classical Marxism requires the 
recovery of human agency, understood both in its objectified existence 
which reproduces dominant social relations, and in its disruptive, and 
potentially emancipator forms.

Working principles
The journal maintains two fundamental working principles:

Interdisciplinarity When the study of natural and social life is 
fragmented into discrete disciplines, the potential for comprehending 
the shape of the whole is weakened. This modern division of 
intellectual labour arose with the emergence of capitalism and its 
concomitant differentiation of society. Society is not, however, 
composed of different spheres of action, separately pursuing their own 
self-reproductive logics. Rather, one relation dominates and takes an 
exploitative form in class societies - that ‘twofold relation’ through 
which people organise their collective interaction with the natural 
world in order to transform it according to their needs: the relation 
of production. The historically specific forms of this relation affect 
all dimensions of social life, which have in the modern period become 
differentiated in new ways. The task must be to take self-reflexive 
account of these historical differentiations without naturalising and 
reifying their separation and content. It is therefore necessary to 
continue the critique of ideology and oppose the compartmentalisation 
of knowledge. Historical Materialism will encourage the systematic 
integration and cross-fertilisation of various fields of knowledge in 
concrete analyses.

Marxist pluralism Historical Materialism will seek to create a forum 
for debate between those working in different Marxist traditions. The 
journal will also engage with non-Marxist contributions which 
constructively criticise Marxist theorems and attempt alternative 
explanations of social phenomena. The journal is not aligned with any 
particular tendency or party and aims to ensure that political 
differences are neither simply repressed nor asserted a priori, but can 
emerge as a result of substantive theoretical enquiry.

‘The birth of Historical Materialism was a major event not only because 
it
provides a unique forum for non-sectarian Marxist debate but also 
because it
represents a change in the wind – a really promising sign of socialist
renewal.’
— Ellen Meiksins Wood

‘Historical Materialism provides exactly what is needed today: a Marxist
antidote to postmodern and similar fashions. It is one of the few 
journals
in English actually turned towards the future — one of the few journals 
in
which a progressive theorist can publish without secretly feeling 
ashamed!’
— Slavoj Zizek

‘Historical Materialism is already among the most highly regarded 
journals
in Marxian theory published in any language. In an age of increasing
specialization it is committed to high quality articles from across a 
broad
range of disciplines. If a resurgence of Marxian thinking occurs in the
twenty-first century Historical Materialism will deserve a good part of 
the
credit.’
— Tony Smith


Research agenda
The journal encourages research into four broad and, we stress, 
non-exclusive areas. Firstly, at the very heart of the Marxist 
tradition is the theorisation of history, class struggle and 
revolution. Within the wider ambit of the Marxist theory of social 
change, we invite contributions of a historical and theoretical nature 
which investigate the nexus between class conflict, and social and 
political movements. Furthermore we encourage studies which address 
Marxist conceptualisations of revolution. Secondly, the development of 
historical materialism involves an attempt to fathom and revitalise the 
elements which remain fundamental in the Marxist tradition. We 
therefore welcome studies which survey recent attempts to 
re-appropriate and redefine Marxism for contemporary social science. 
Areas which could be covered within this context include: the 
clarification of core concepts and theorems such as work on variations 
in Marxist method and epistemology, as well as studies on the history 
and historiography of Marxism itself. The third area of study is 
provided by the uneven and contradictory universalisation of 
capitalism, and its international political economy. Here we envisage 
debate on the geographical expansion of capitalism, its incorporation 
of other social structures, and the politics of resistance to these 
processes. We invite work on the historical relationship between the 
state and the economy, and that between fragmented political authority 
and the world market. The complexity of the historical genesis of 
capitalist modernity requires that the arguably neglected themes of 
war/geopolitics, diplomacy, trade, migration, strategies of 
exploitation, conjunctures of crisis, questions of globalisation, and 
the latest round of neoliberal orthodoxy must be within the scope of 
Marxist scholarship. Furthermore, we welcome single country or area 
studies which combine the explanation of conjunctural contexts within 
the perspective of long-term economic, social and political 
developments. In the fourth area we aim to confront the challenges of 
post-Marxist critique, the claim that the allegedly totalising and 
class-reductionist premises of Marxism hinder comprehension of 
important questions concerning gender, racism, ecology, culture and 
aesthetics. We recognise the need for constructive engagement with 
these issues and encourage studies into their historical constitution, 
and their relation to the reproduction of capitalist society as a 
whole. Space will also be provided for the critical exploration and 
development of the classical themes of ideology and consciousness in 
which discussion of the above issues were prefigured.

Editorial policy
Historical Materialism aims to be neither a traditional academic 
journal locked into the career structure of a particular discipline, 
nor a platform for the exhibition of a particular ‘line’ on the 
intellectual Left by the already established. We welcome submission of 
work by graduate students and younger researchers. The journal also 
intends to maintain a broad international awareness and will actively 
encourage contributions from a non-anglophone public. These could take 
the form of introducing country-specific Marxist debates and issues to 
a primarily English-speaking readership, or the presentation or 
discussion of major new or as yet untranslated publications. Operating 
from these principles, the journal hopes to display the ongoing power 
and commitment of historical materialism - both as a method of analysis 
capable of providing explanation adequate to the world we inhabit, and 
as an inspiration to human potential and practical action.


‘Historical Materialism demonstrates that Marxist analysis is not merely
alive, but thriving again as the contradictions of globalisation 
generate
economic, social and cultural tensions which mainstream analysis cannot
account for.’
— John Weeks

‘Historical Materialism is an excellent journal providing a unique 
forum for
serious intellectual work about every aspect of Marxism. The quality of 
the
first issues surpassed expectations. The journal is essential reading 
for
anyone with an interest in this field.’
— Sean Sayers
