Althusser Today and the Althusser of the Crisis of Marxism

Democracy and Class Struggle never found Althusser a solid basis for anti revisionism but that does not mean we merely dismiss him.He certainly offered far better insights than Roger Garaudy.

Re-visting him reveals many contradictions in his thought - the pure theoreticism of Althusser was not grounded in Maoist social practice but was just a theoretical practice.

Developing a critique of Althusser is part of the ideological clarification of the new Marxism Leninism Maoism of the 21st Century.
