Article Title:As Gospel and Method of Mass Movement The roots of Mariátegui's ⟪heterodox⟫ Marxism
Abstract:
This article is a contribution to the new Latin American readings of Mari & aacute;tegui and, in particular, aims to vindicate the << heterodox >> character of the Marxism of the Peruvian thinker tracing some of its fundamental theoretical and vital roots: the Italian Marxism of the first years of the 1920s; the spiritual agonism of Unamuno; the reaction against the economicist and positivist interpretations of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and, finally, the assumption of the Sorelian defense of a << producer morality >> as the foundation of a materialist ethics. We will defend that a historiographical practice which can get rid of the pernicious link between << heterodoxy >> and << heresy >> will find in the figure of Mari & aacute;tegui a renewer of Marxist theory, but also a promoter of a political praxis that, without renouncing the universal, is founded on Latin
Keywords: American soil.; Mari & aacute;tegui; Latin American Marxism; religion; political praxis.
