Robert Heinze<p>Thinking about modes of production and how important the concept was for the development on non-Western <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Marxism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Marxism</span></a>, because it allowed for separating historical analysis from purely theoretical.

Tucker Teague<p>An excellent short documentary on the life and thought of Louis <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Althusser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Althusser</span></a>. He is an interesting figure in the history of modern thought, highly influential and, for some, a flashpoint of controversy. I'm no expert on his thought, but given what I know, I would have to say I'm, at least to some degree, an "Althusserian." What I did not know is how much of his thinking I learned via others.</p><p>Warning: the video opens with a description of a murder.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/marxism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>marxism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/philosophy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>philosophy</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://youtu.be/bKDahXlfFlY?si=WVO9k6HHzAA21TnB" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">youtu.be/bKDahXlfFlY?si=WVO9k6</span><span class="invisible">HHzAA21TnB</span></a></p>
