Elster also edited a companion volume of selected writings by Marx, organizing along thematic lines corresponding to the book's chapters 2–9, on the topics of Marxian methodology, alienation, Marxian economics, exploitation, historical materialism, class consciousness and class struggle, Marx's theory of politics, and the Marxist critique of ideology.
