Towards a Critique of the French Ideology

If “Back to Marx!” was the slogan of the sixties, the seventies will probably be remembered for the return to Nietzsche. This is not purely a cultural phenomenon but one rooted in what one may call “common sense” and, as such, involves ideology. France always seems to be the source of new trends: previously Althusser's For Marx was seen as a theoretical breakthrough, and now Foucault's Microphysics of Power and Deleuze's and Guattari's Anti-Oedipus are seen in similar light. The use of genealogy against the dialectic, the archeology of knowledge instead of the critique of political economy and ideology, the body displacing “class”: it is difficult to imagine a sharper break with Marx. These analyses, however, cannot be readily dismissed.
