Alyson and Breht apply dialectical and historical materialist
analysis to the current war of aggression in Iran. Together they
break down the Marxist methodology into its three main parts -
dialectics, materialism, and history - and showcase how they apply
to the US and Israeli war on Iran, before bringing them back
together into a coherent whole. Then they compare and contrast
dialectical and historical materialism as a mode of analysis to
other forms of analysis: from academic modes like liberal
internationalism and Realism to common popular modes like
conspiracy theories and moralism.
Throughout the process, they aim to show the superior clarity and
demystification offered by Marxism in understanding our world, as
it unfolds in real time.
