I'm curious to know your opinion on Karl Korsch's works, as well as the man himself.

For those who don't know:

Karl Korsch (August 15, 1886 - October 21, 1961) was a German Marxist theorist who was concerned that Marxist theory was losing its precision and validity as a methodology (in various socialist organisations).

I read Marxism & Philosophy ages ago and friggin loved it. I'm not sure how it really stands up but it was furious.

I read somewhere that he was sympathetic to Mao and the Chinese Revolution, and apparently wrote a paper on. If anyone knows if it was published it'd be much appreciated.
