西方马克思主义
Western Marxism, in terms of 20th-century philosophy, generally describes the writings of Marxist theoreticians, mainly based in Western and Central Europe; this stands in contrast with the Marxist philosophy in the Soviet Union. While György Lukács's "History and Class Consciousness" and Karl Korsch's "Marxism and Philosophy", first published in 1923, are often seen as the works that inaugurated this current. Maurice Merleau-Ponty coined the phrase "Western Marxism" much later.
