Cultural Studies engaged Marxism’s questions without adopting Marxism as dogma

Evidence

What I mean by that is certainly not that I wasn’t profoundly, and that Cultural Studies then wasn’t from the beginning profoundly, influenced by the questions that Marxism as a theoretical project put on the agenda: the power, the global reach and history-making capacities of capital; the question of class; the complex relationships between power, which is an easier term to establish in the discourses of culture than exploitation, and exploitation; the question of a general theory which could, in a critical way, connect together in a critical reflection different domains of life, politics and theory, theory and practice, economic, political, ideological questions, and so on; the notion of critical knowledge itself and the production of critical knowledge as a practice. These important, central questions are what one meant by working within shouting distance of Marxism, working on Marxism, working against Marxism, working with it, working to try to develop Marxism. — Hall, Stuart, Essential Essays, Volume 1, 240
