In Rethinking Marxist Theories of Transition, Onur Acaroglu traces the concept of transition across the tracts of Classical and Western Marxism. Rarely directly invoked, transition between different societies appears as an imminent social reality, and a useful conceptual tool for critical social theory.
Transitions as qualitative shifts between societies are often considered as eventual historical stages, or effaced altogether. Theorising transition in a new direction, Onur Acaroglu elaborates a theory of temporal dislocation. Considering transition through a framework of out-of-joint temporalities, the notion comes through as an undervalued tendency in social reproduction.
Onur Acaroglu is a doctoral researcher. He has published articles and reviews on contemporary Marxism and political theory, including Paris 1871 and Fatsa 1979: Revisiting the Transition Problem (Globalisations). He is an editor of Marx and Philosophy Review of Books.
