Marxian means you're Marxmaxxed, Marxist means you're just a Marxbrained Karlcel
A Marxad is just a Marxoid in the category of endo-Marxors
Someone needs make this a bit, with like, lore from 4th level down trotsky group splits.
"No, like, Marxian means you're aligned with the 4.89th solid international, while Marxist means you joined the 4.91th liquids because you disagree with the previous's stance on the peasant question (hypothetical moon-based peasants to be precise)."
It's an approach in economics that usually rejects Marx's revolutionary politics but agrees with his critiques of capitalism. People like Richard Wolff identity as Marxian.
So basically academics in the economic field who aren't totally morally bankrupt but still wanna keep their nice university jobs?
I don't think there's any requirement to reject revolutionary politics, just that "Marxian" doesn't make any political prescriptions.
Yeah it's not required but the only self identified "Marxians" I've come across were raging liberals while I have met "Marxist" academics that were not liberal.
Libs gonna lib, and sometimes they need to engage with Marx. "Marxian" lets them do that without inviting the red scare bullshit that Marxists will always face.
I've never met anyone who calls themselves "Marxian." Only seen it used to describe Marxist economic theory without discussion of Marxist political prescriptions or history.
Marxian is a follower of Marx, and from the planet Marx. Marxists are people that discriminate and are bigots against Marxians 😤
"Marxian" describes the Marxist critique of capitalism and the economic theory that follows.
I've heard it used recently, I can't remember where, but that Marxian describes ideas around the same time as Marx but not necessarily from Marx.
I think it usually refers to academic study of Marxist philosophy
Academic jargon that means you need to pay the bills and stay on the boss's good side
Honestly just assumed it was the old way of saying Marxist and never thought about it again
