Abstract: The epistemological and political characteristics of Marxian science distinguish it from empiricist science and from explanations using nonmaterialist abstraction. It is argued that these differences preclude the combination of Marxian with non-Marxian categories and the selective adoption of some Marxian insights rather than the whole theoretical ‘package’.
