In the work of Adolfo Sánchez Vázquez we find a valuable legacy for the next generations of a living, critical and creative Marxism that is inserted in the social reality of Mexico and Latin America in order to nourish the new political forces that seek social change radical.

This new book by Samuel Arriarán pretends to be an interpretative and critical essay. Its author attempts to understand the rich content of Adolfo Sánchez Vázquez's work as a process of intersubjective relationship, dialogue and communication between different perspectives. He takes as its main reference the living voice of the Marxist thinker expressed in courses, seminars and long conversations, but also considers his books as living texts with which he can talk and reflect continuously.

This hermeneutic method enables an active relationship between author and recipient and facilitates the free confrontation of different ideas and experiences.

Samuel Arriarán explains the context of the work of Adolfo Sánchez Vázquez, his participation in the Spanish Civil War, his subsequent exile in Mexico and his first studies in the unam; How he broke with Stalinist orthodoxy to develop a conception that would allow him to oppose the commodification of art and the conversion of aesthetics into a branch of postmodern theory and go beyond idealistic and romantic aesthetic theories based on pure reception to approach The new modalities of the art of the period of the Internet and computer games from the perspective of interactivity and participation.

It proposes to reexamine the work of Sánchez Vázquez from the collapse of "real socialism" in 1989-1991, which forced him to rethink Marxism.
