Abstract
Kevin Cox’s (2013) paper makes a strong case for a historical–geographical materialism, based in what he calls ‘classical Marxism’, as a better means to engage the world than critical realism. In demonstrating why this is so, he defends a Marxism that is caught in a trap much like that Nicos Poulantzas labelled ‘historicist’. This leads Cox to ignore a large part of the best work in contemporary Marxist geography, and thus also to underestimate what a more complex historical geographical materialism can help us to understand.
