I received an email just now from Scott Hamilton, who has been writing a doctoral thesis on Althusser and E.P. Thompson. He has written a very interesting review of the latest Althusser volume, where he discusses not only the contexts of Althusser’s interventions but also the contexts of its reading, especially its effects in New Zealand.
I haven’t had the chance to read it properly yet but thought I’d share it with you all. Please feel free to post comments on it either here or at Scott’s blog.
