Critique Of Dialectical Reason: V. 2

Synopsis

Does History produce discernable meaning? Are human struggles intelligible? These questions form the starting-point for the second volume of Sartre's Critique of Dialectical Reason. Drafted in 1958 and published in France in 1985, this magisterial work first appeared in English in 1991 and now reappears with a major new introduction by Frederic Jameson. Volume Two's theoretical framework is a logical extension of its predecessor's. As in Volume One, Sartre proceeds by moving from the simple to the complex: from individual combat (through a perceptive study of boxing) to the struggle of subgroups within an organized group form and, finally, to social struggle, with an extended analysis of the Bolshevik Revolution. The book concludes with the forceful reaffirmation of dialectical reason: of the dialectic as 'that which is truly irreducible in action'.
