description Cohen's work, now published by Editora Unicamp, appeared in the first edition in 1978, and in an expanded second edition in 2000. The expansion consisted of the inclusion of an Introduction to the 2000 edition: Reflections on analytical Marxism, and the addition of four new chapters, at the end of the work, to the original eleven chapters. The work is considered the founder of a current – ​​more specifically, a group of authors – that came to be called “analytical Marxism”, whose leaders were Cohen, John Roemer and Jon Elster. For this reason, the book has a meaning, due to its method and theoretical objective, as or more important than its object, Marx's theory of history, or Cohen's version of this theory. It can be said that the object was the support of a methodological project to reformulate historical materialism based on non-Marxist theoretical and methodological principles.

A obra de Cohen, agora publicada pela Editora Unicamp, apareceu em primeira edição em 1978, e em segunda edição ampliada em 2000. A ampliação consistiu na inclusão de uma Introdução à edição de 2000: Reflexões sobre o marxismo analítico, e na adição de quatro novos capítulos, no fim da obra, aos onze capítulos originais. A obra é tida como fundadora de uma corrente – mais propriamente de um grupo de autores – que veio a denominar-se “marxismo analítico”, cujos líderes foram Cohen, John Roemer e Jon Elster. Por esta razão, o livro possui um significado, pelo método e pelo objetivo teórico, tão ou mais importante que o seu objeto, a teoria da história de Marx, ou a versão de Cohen desta teoria. Pode-se dizer que o objeto foi o suporte de um projeto metodológico de reformulação do materialismo histórico com base em princípios teóricos e metodológicos não marxistas.
