Capitalism, Citizenship and the Arts of Thinking proposes a historical materialist ethic of human flourishing understood in terms of the practice of citizenship. It focuses on the ways in which capitalism's necessary mode of thinking - analytical thinking - impedes the nurturing of capabilities for citizenship as understood from a Marxian-Aristotelian point of view. It includes a systematic discussion of the Aristotelian resonances in Marx's critique of capitalism, as well as an elaboration and critique of Alfred Sohn-Rethel's account of the origins of analytical thinking in his book Intellectual and Manual Labor: A Critique of Epistemology.
