Karel Kosík (1926–2003), one of the most remarkable Czech Marxist philosophers of the twentieth century, owes his reputation as a creative thinker largely to his Dialectics of the Concrete, first published in Czechoslovakia in 1963. On this broadcast, we will discuss a new volume that reintroduces Kosík’s philosophy to English-speaking readers, showing that Kosík’s work is important not only as a leading intellectual document of the push for democratic socialism known as the Prague Spring, but also as an original theoretical contribution with international impact that sheds light on the meaning of labour and praxis, cognition and economic structure, revolution and the crises of modernity.
