I am an Australian philosopher with a focus on the nature and history of science, the different socio-economic forms of capitalism and socialism, the prevailing neoliberal ideology of capitalist society, and the theoretical/methodological differences between modern orthodox neoclassical economics and Marx's critique of political economy. I work in the areas of the history and philosophy of science, political philosophy, Marxism, and the history and philosophy of economics. I am a social critic.
