Summary/Abstract: This paper intends to present the basic structure of Jameson’s concept of dialectical critique in the manner it is developed in Marxism and Form and Political Unconscious. Author’s intention is to give an analysis of specific constitutive dualism by which Jameson approaches the tradition of dialectical thinking, such as ‘philosophy – history’, ‘Hegelianism – Marxism’, ‘critique – understanding’, and its abolition. Starting from the fact of this concept’s immense analytical power, this paper endeavors to affirm Jameson’s project of revitalization of critique as an unsurpassed mode of Marxist intervention within the world of late capitalism.
