Abstract

In this interview, which was conducted via
email in 2008, Michael Lowy discusses such
questions as utopia, romanticism, eco-
socialism and, above all, his non-dogmatic
methodology. The simultaneously discerning
and renewing character of his science is
debated. What stands out is the vitality
of Lowy’s thinking, which combines “the
scientific and unflinching analysis of the
capitalist system with a utopian vision”.
