«Historia y consciencia de clase I» is the philosophical-political essay by Georg Lukács, published by Orbis in hardcover (184 pages, in Spanish).
A central work of Marxism in which Lukács analyzes class consciousness as the driving force of social transformation and criticizes the economic determinism of historical materialism. Against that view, he incorporates Hegelian dialectics and subjectivity to formulate a humanist interpretation of Marxism; his aesthetic theory understands art as an expression of society's contradictions.
First volume of the work, published in 1985 within Orbis's «Biblioteca de Política, Economía y Sociología» collection; the original text dates from 1923.
For readers of philosophy, Marxist theory and sociology.
György Lukács was a Hungarian Marxist philosopher, literary historian, literary critic, and aesthetician. He was one of the founders of Western Marxism, an interpretive tradition that departed from the Soviet Marxist ideological orthodoxy. He developed the theory of reification, and contributed to Marxist theory with developments of Karl Marx's theory of class consciousness. He was also a philosopher of Leninism. He ideologically developed and organised Vladimir Lenin's pragmatic revolutionary practices into the formal philosophy of vanguard-party revolution.
