For A Working-Class Culture in Canada A Selection of Colin McKay’s Writings on Sociology and Political Economy, 1897-1939
This book sets out to present the economic and social writings of Colin McKay, a pioneer Marxian sociologist and economist in Canada (and no relation to the author), and to place McKay in the context of the international socialist tradition. The manuscript takes the form of an extensive biographical essay, five substantive sections that present and examine McKay’s thought both thematically and chronologically, and a concluding essay that places McKay’s thought in the context of contemporary discussions with regard to the “decline of Marx” in the late 20th century. Colin McKays’s life and work determines the scope of the manuscript, but since this “life and work” extended to subjects as varies as the limitations of Kantian philosophy and the design of North Atlantic schooners, the book is rather less narrow than it might appear at first
