Abstract: Academic traditions in the English-speaking world have long been hostile to Marxism. This is due to a lack of rigor attributed to Marxism. It appeared that the publication of Karl Marx's Theory of History: a Defence in 1978 by Gerald A. Cohen made a difference. His explicit objective was to associate Marxism and analytical philosophy. He provided a thrust for the emergence of a school of thought that rapidly became "Analytical Marxism". Its interest lies in the association of Marxism with non-Marxist methods. Its contributions refer to all humanities (economics, history, sociology…). We conclude that it failed. On the one hand, it did not attract many scholars beyond its immediate zone of influence. On the other hand, it led to refutation of Marxism. Yet it seems to us that this failure has not to do with the association of Marxism with analytical methods, but rather to a refusal to relate the Marxist (dialectical) method with the analytical method.
