CHANGING COURSE

In preparation for writing about Piketty, I did a search of this blog, initially to locate the dates of my original review, and discovered that I have written quite a lot about Piketty.  So I decided instead to return to the preparations for my next Marx lecture at Columbia.  I then found, as Hannah Arendt once said to me about Kant, that it is "so much more pleasant to spend time with Marx."

    Just as, with respect to Piketty, it is so much more pleasant to spend time with Wolff.

    Dear Prof,
    When you mentioned Piketty, I thought you were going to review his new tome 'Capital and Ideology' as you did an excellent work with his previous CAPITAL. You can still do it.
