In 'If "Marxists" Would Only Read Marx' The Significance of Simon Clarke's Marxism, Greig Charnock and Guido Starosta bring back Clarke's early critique of the structuralist Marxist philosophy of Louis Althusser (written in 1970 at 24 years of age). Despite a long gap between 1970 and 2023, Clarke's original critique stands against present predominant tendencies that reject any Marxist humanist content. By exploring the enduring features of Clarke's work since the 1970s, they advise that to discover the relevance of Clarke's work, we must avoid pigeonholing him into general labels like open Marxism and the CSE tradition: he was unique.
