MARX, POSTMODERNISM, AND SELF-MANAGEMENT - REPLY TO ABELL

Peter Abell's review of Marxism and Workers' Self-Management misses th e mark. Contrary to Abell's assertions, my book neither champions a po stmodern case for self-management, nor does it try to salvage a social ist case for self-management by focusing on Marx's humanism, Self-mana ged firms require markets, It may be interesting to ask if that saves Mam, or if that also requires postmodernity, but these were not the co ncerns or arguments of the book.
