Karl Marx's so-called theory of historical materialism has been one of the most influential social and political ideas in human history, but what if it missed something crucial? Science – even in the loose sense in which it applies to sociology – is never complete, and occasionally, a new insight may reveal the need for a thoroughgoing revision. Firearms & the Fortress argues that the means of production – the most basic 'level' in Marx's schema – can only be predicated on the bas...
