Abstract
Main description
(01)
|
To argue for the acknowledgment of the importance of historical materialism today when the cold-war and communism have for
more than two decades ceased to exist it might create the perception of appearing dejected. Yet such a task which we attempt
to take in this work is possible, if only because of the way that our actuality has depicted itself. One can argue for example
that the significance of historical materialism as an elucidating method was never reliant on the success of the authoritarian
regimes of communism that gave it a face of their own, any more than has traditional conservatism been dependent on social
Darwinism, racist or/and aggressive regimes. Beyond this indication we argue of the possibility that historical materialism
can be recognised as explanatory system, as one that in derivation and maturity has as its focus of analysis and particularly
lays emphasis on what more than ever before governs our social world today, capitalism. The cold war proved the ground or
rather the fit for concealing the social and economic divide and made that division namely in competing strategic interest:
with the failure of communism and the freeing of historical materialism itself, IR might as well accept the degree to which
socio-economic issues determined its agenda and policy of the west.
