Philosophy of praxis claims historicist self-explanation beyond its predecessors.

Evidence

The philosophy of praxis not only claimed to explain and to justify-all the past, but to explain and justify historically itself as well. That is, it was the greatest form of “historicism”, total liberation from any form of abstract “ideologism”, the real conquest of the historical world, the beginnings of a new civilisation. — Antonio Gramsci, Selections from the Prison Notebooks, 1414

Categorization
